In a recent interview with Cliff Bleszinski, the design director on Gears of War 2, he mentioned that “players’ Achievements in Gears 1 will unlock content in Gears 2, but they won’t automatically give you Achievements in Gears 2.” Meaning that as long as your Gears of War 1 gamertag on Xbox 360 or PC is the same as in the sequel, you can unlock characters and other things in Gears of War 2. For example: Defeat RAAM in Gears of War 1 to unlock the RAAM multiplayer skin in Gears of War 2.

Which resulted in IGN asking him if meants Epic Games are planning a Windows version of Gears of War 2?

To which Cliff answered: “Gears of War is a great franchise first and foremost for Xbox 360, and therefore we’re focusing on that platform for Gears of War 2. We’ve decided we’re not going to do a PC version this time around.”

Gears of War 2 will be released exclusively on Xbox 360 worldwide on November 7th, 2008.
