GEARS OF WAR TRIPLE: FINISH THE FIGHT!!!1

[The Fake Shemp]

Trailer from Fallon interview is up on their site.

Now you can play as a chick!

[Himu]

Now you can play as a chick!

...

Don't tempt me.

[The Fake Shemp]

The trailer was pretty lame, though.

[Himu]

CliffyB is so cool.

Demi: Would you do him?

[The Sceneman]

I wonder if 'Insane' will actually be as hard as Gears fanboys say it is, this time?

[demi]

CliffyB is so cool.

Demi: Would you do him?

CliffyB? No... why would you ask this

[Stoney Mason]

snore trailer although excited for the actual game.

[TripleA]

That was short.

[The Sceneman]

I remember some white trash POS sent a voice message to EVERYONE on his friends roster (I think I boosted with him once or something), that said "OMG I BEAT GEARS OF WAR 2 ON INSANE". Its about as impressive as telling everyone you passed the first wave of Space Invaders without dying or something

[Beezy]

Yay, a trailer that doesn't really show shit.

MARIA STRIKES BACK

[Beezy]

Cliffy has a nerd mouth

[Phoenix Dark]

smh @ Cliff using "boom" 

wu tang does not approve

[Ichirou]

PD, you gotta get a 360, bro.

[The Fake Shemp]

The 360 will satisfy your sexual urges.

[Phoenix Dark]

I'm apart of the PC master race, my sexual and gaming urges are taken care of

[Tieno]

Dudebro trailer shits all over Crysis 2 trailer.

PC developers trying to make console games

Epic

PD has played a ton of games on his PC that use keyboard + joystick controls.  

[GilloD]

Eh. I liked 2 enough, I really wasn't jonsing for a 3rd.

[ManaByte]

Where's Gears 2 for PC?

[ManaByte]

Gears 1 on PC had more content than the 360 version.

[Smooth Groove]

Where's Gears 2 for PC?

[MCD]

4 player co-op

All I needed to know.

2011 GOTY.

[Tieno]

Epic isn't a PC developer, why you expect them to make PC games?

[Beezy]

Gears 1 on PC had more content than the 360 version.

deez nuts have more content than your PC version

[Smooth Groove]

Stop hating fools.  Gears was hella good on the PC.  It actually looked like the bullshots that Epic sent out for Gears 1. 

But I do agree that Gears 2 isn't really needed for the PC.  The 360 version had very good image quality for a console title and ran well enough.  Gears just isn't the type of game that PC gamers would latch on to.  The newer Rainbow Six games do a much better job at satisfying both console and PC gamers.

[Ichirou]

If I dug Mass Effect, would I dig the Gears games?

[MCD]

as long as you play it coop, sure.

[Smooth Groove]

If I dug Mass Effect, would I dig the Gears games?

Gears is way harder for people that suck at shooters. 

[Ichirou]

n/m then.

[maxy]

n/m then.

Don't listen to them,Gears of War games are very easy...on easy settings
Very easy to get into,even if you suck at shooters

Think Mass Effect 2 without powers

[Ichirou]

n/m then.

I always play as a soldier in the ME games anyway.

Green Man, if you rebuy a 360, let's play some Gears of War together.

[Ichirou]

[Third]

Game needs more color.

[MCD]

you need more color.

[AdmiralViscen]

Definitely can't wait for the campaign. Expectations are less than 0 for the multi at this point.

Is Gears 2 insane easier when you don't play co op? We found some of the later parts to be really annoying - we managed to get past that gondola thing with all the enemies flying at you, but then the part where you split up on two balconies with a big chasm between you is a pain in the ass too and froze us up.

[Third]

you need more color.

You can come and paint me. Hard brushes

[WrikaWrek]

Absolute dog shit of a trailer.

They changed Anya's character look for the worse, Marcus looks funny in that suit. Dom looks cool.

[demi]

They promoted Anya to COG status? Really? Ugh

That's like playing as Cortana in Halo...

Dom's beard is kinda hot though.

[cool breeze]

somber music over vague CG footage of action figures?  breaking new ground 

have they announced any why they needed to make the woman a soldier? five person co-op? 

and I agree with AdmiralViscen.  Gears 2 campaign was great but versus multiplayer was a mess compared to Gears 1.  Horde was pretty fun.

It's not CG...in-engine,recorded
4-player coop,but you will be able to play as female in multi

[cool breeze]

I'm guessing then that the old guy isn't a standard party member then, or at one point someone dies and the old guy replaces them.

and CG, in-engined but touched up and recorded, w/e.  It's like when people take cutscene pictures of Uncharted 2 and use them to show why the game looks good.  or photomode in Halo 3.

[maxy]

Yeah.

CG-something done totally offline,days to render a frame if needed...turbo expensive

This,Uncharted,etc...done in-engine,"settings=high",or even the same,depending on the purpose...performance problems,etc avoided by recording...cheap

Nitpicking a little...

[tiesto]

Unless they fix the total sluggishness of the gameplay, I'll pass. At least a game like Uncharted 2 or the ME games had a bit of variety to break up from stop-and-pop shooting.

[AdmiralViscen]

Tried Insane alone and got past that part

I'm well into the Jacinto part of the game now.

[OptimoPeach]

You're a soldier. I'd be bored to death by most traditional shooters' campaigns without co-op

Here's what i don't understand.

Clearly it's not CG, in the way we perceive CG to be. But that's another thing, what i don't understand is why people would complain about the format of the trailer, given that it was a trailer that was going to debut on a Talk Show.

What did you expect? Gameplay? 3 min montage of somebody playing the game? Really?

[The Fake Shemp]

I'll play Gears with anybody. I never got to finish the campaign with Eric P.

[demi]

I'll play Gears with anybody. I never got to finish the campaign with Eric P.

I'll play Gears with you~

[The Fake Shemp]

the 1st?

Yeah. I need to buy the second one, I never finished it.

[demi]

I have both Gears~

[cool breeze]

Yeah.

Nitpicking a little...

technically you were the one nitpicking by taking offense when I called it CG

I wasn't saying it was wrong to use CG or prerecorded in-game assets or w/e.  It's more that I find the Gears trailers (that style of trailer in general) funny.  People seem to love them but I just think they're awkward.

Here's what i don't understand.

what? the trailer was fine in the same sense that the past two big gears trailers were fine, they just rub me the wrong way.  I don't know what other people's problems are with this.

[maxy]

technically you were the one nitpicking by taking offense when I called it CG

Bah,i was just correcting you,not that it matters much...well,at least not here

CG...nothing to do with game engine,engine assets,etc
Prerecorded...in-engine stuff

My official standpoint about that

There is no wrong or right in using either one...totally up to game dev...every decision is good
If it's not under my control,i don't care what it is
