Default Gears of War 2

Well, since it has officially gone gold, I decided it's time for a topic!

Trailers

http://www.gametrailers.com/game/6236.html

Also, here's some pictures from some lucky bastard who got the game early (many speculate it's a review copy).

Going to play through Gears 1 campaign one more time in co-op, to get ready for this. Nov. 7th can't come fast enough!

No, I'm not too much of a console gamer and didn't even realize the release date was so close.

At work I can't see the videos on my laptop for whatever reason either, but thanks for being a dick.

From the videos that you guys can watch, did they mention how or if they were going to upgrade the match set ups? The actual multiplayer gameplay isn't too much of a concern of mine since it was still fun the way it was, it was the pre-game and match setups, ranking, and possible clan matches that I was concerned about. Server lists would be great but I know thats not really a console thing.

I actualy wasnt trying to be a dick, I apologize I came off that way, but if you get time ign and gamespot have a ton of coverage on the game you can look through, also if your gunna pick up the game or plan to its going to be 360 onry, no PC this time around they confirmed.

Ah, sorry for misinterpreting you - lots of people on this forum will purposely come off like that, and just love to troll, so my defensive flag automatically went up when I saw comma's lol.

I have #1 for 360 now, one game i actually love to play on 360. TY for help.

I hope that guy was joking. I'm not claiming it's the greatest or that it's tactical or anything, but I found Gears MP to be fun. It was extremely satisfying to chainsaw people, or see them explode into chunks, or hear their head pop, even after 13,000 kills.

I've never played Resistance, nor do I plan to, but was the MP any good? I never heard mention of it, much at all. Also, I fail to see how more people = better MP. Playing TF2 on 360, most of the matches were 4 v 4 or 5 v 5, and it was still tons of fun.

My friend and I started our campaign run yesterday, and even though it's my fourth run through, I still had as much fun as my first. That's gotta count for something.

But anyway, I absolutely cannot wait for this. With all the new features, a longer campaign, and a (hopefully) more balanced, less glitchy online, it should be great.

Sad your gunna miss resistance 2 alina, basicaly 3 games on 1 disc and the scale is huge. Single player and 8 man co-op have 2 diffrent stories. Multiplayer supports 60 man and the scale of the battles are huge. Im getting gears 2 as well, but im more so excited about resistance, I tried playing through first gears again last night and got bored but keep in mind Ive player through it at least 10 times lol.

Thats a funny joke, I totaly can compare 2 games that dont release for 3 weeks, because Ive obviously played them.

Little note, fanboyism is reserved for the console wars thread, if you wanna argue games, take it there.

Seriously?

60% of the posts above yours consist of bashing/trolling and you're telling the one person who cares enough to back GoW2 a fanboy and to gtfo a Gears thread.

Mostly BRP trolling and others trolling his video, but comment justified, the thread is also involving resistance 2 talks prior to the fanboy comment. More than likely just a system fanboy anyway.
