Microsoft today announced that Epic's Gears of War for windows was now gold and will be available across Europe on November 9th. I guess tyhis is the PC gamer's chance to take on the roll of Marcus what his face and take the locust horde, 4 million Xbox 360 gamers and counting shouldn't be wrong.

In addition to retaining all of the content from its Xbox 360 counterpart and all previously released downloadable content (seven multiplayer maps and the Annex game mode), "Gears of War" for Windows will feature exciting original content, all-new Achievements to unlock, and ultra-high resolution visuals. Five new campaign chapters expand upon the riveting story (including an epic battle with the fearsome Brumak), and the action-packed multiplayer offering is bolstered with three exclusive multiplayer maps, a "King of the Hill" game type, and Games for Windows – LIVE support to deliver online matchmaking for Gold members. A new game editor will allow users to develop an unlimited number of user-created levels with complete access to the Unreal Editor.
