And there was me thinking it was going to be a launch title for the XBOX 720 :roll:

Oh well, it will be good to round off the trilogy :)

I played GoW2 (never played the 1st) for the first time a couple weeks ago. The game looks amazing and was intense fun.. even though I suck with a controller (unless it's a sports game).

Gears Of War 1 & 2 are 'must play' titles IMHO. If you dont have a 360, its well worth picking up one cheap for titles like this ;)

That woman is Anya from the 1st GOW (the holo gram chick and the one in the helicopter scene at the beginning of the game) and also they're going to have a 4 player Campaign mode from what I understand. :eek:

I loved Gears 1 the most, on PC with high depth scaling, AA and, different color rendering modes.


Epic gameplay and graphics in gears 1 on PC!!!!!!!!!!!

I had my friend set up his 360, vs my PC on a good tv, and me using a low depth 19 inch lcd back then. My friend was shocked to see how better rendered and looking the game was on PC, and how good us PC people got on the game. Those Controller using pep's on the multi servers on PC rarely out classed us barley pro's with mouses 80% of the time. I got so rediculas in the game that all of us would die with no scope sniper head shots on most maps with-en the first minute or 2 on first contact. But i learned my sliding cover moves and litteraly beat people to death with pistols even though they had the bow, i was across the map, and i epicly dodged all the bows shot them 3 times, and melle'ed them, then after that i humped them OVER and over again then just killed him for the lulz.



I have so many epic story's in gears 1. I hope gears 2 comes out on PC once in a day, because i was actually one of the people who bought the game, and didn't torrent it.

haha thats funny because I was an avid 360 gamer but now I cant stand playing it.

The frame rates are slow to me and I decided to hook up my rig to my 56" led dlp tv and poped GOW into the tray to play. I had everything maxed out and the wife walked in, well shes a die hard 360 gow player and after all the times she asked me to watch her play I told her it looks like crap and I cant watch it.... (bugs my eyes out) lol... well long story short she now see's the difference the pc to the 360 makes hehe.... It's smooth as silk and solid 60-62fps

Please Cliffy make a GOW III pc version!!!!
