Gears of War 2 gets its own "Game Fuel".

Anyone else think Gears of War is rapidly becoming the new Halo - Overrated and super heavily-marketed to the point of making you sick of hearing about it all the time ? :|

Idk about overrated. Gear's is my most favorite shooter so far this gen,but it is super heavily-marketed.killab2oo5

Gears of War is the Halo of the 360.

overrated? have you played it yet?

yes its getting the halo treatment because its an awesome franchise that is really popular. the damage control is going to be comical when it outscores and outsells every shooter this fall. apparently every high scoring 360 franchise is overrated

I'd rather have more Game Fuel and another Halo. :(

Because its an energy drink, I'm sure this Demon stuff won't be as big of a success as Mt Dew's Game Fuel was. Plus, this is a cola and that was... well... Mt Dew. :P

Nah, I don't know what I'm talking about. I just want to play some Halo right now... thanks for reminding me. :D

Over-marketed =/= Over rated

The game sucks because MS is actually going to do some marketing for their games......got to love it.....the world seems to always work backwards in SW

i have and its not THAT great..

but i agree that it is a fun game..and an awsome franchise..but FFS..stop with this heavy marketing crap..this is crap geared (no pun intended) towards fake gamers..who buy the game because is the "popular" thing to do..

its all a bunch of bullcrap.

how have you not gotten sick of Halo yet? wtf?

I do think Gears is overrated, but certainly not to the extent of Halo. As for overmarketed, I'm not sure that's possible.

Yes, and don't get me wrong, I loved it. It's just nowhere as great as some people say, in my opinion.

Over-marketed =/= Over rated

Never said they were the same thing... I'm saying Halo is both.

how have you not gotten sick of Halo yet? wtf?

I haven't played it online very much as I'm not big into multiplayer gaming. I've beaten the campaign like three or four times, currently running through again and I'm still enjoying it. But at this moment I'm in the mood to do some skirmishes... too bad I'm so busy. :(

Its funny how lems say LBP is overrated but they're to damn fanboy blind to notice Gears 2 is just as overrated :lol:StingerVXIII

theres a difference. Gears has proven itself, LBP has not. Oh, and i think LBP isn't overrated.

From the publisher's point of view, maybe. :P As a consumer, though, I am getting pretty sick of all the Game fuels and plastic helmets/guns and whatnots.

a game that is hyped to no end can't be bad. It has to be REALLY good. so no, GeOW isn't overrated, it's just milked for merchandise, that's business.

no..MS can do what they want..but thats beside the point im trying to make..

There trying to get a bunch of casuals in a hardcore game by putting some crappy enegry drink out there to get people intrested..now i know thats marketing..but i dont want a bunch of people asking me "WTF doez this gunz doo!" while im playing on XBL..

i do know that i am overstating that whole thing..but it just seems like there marketing towards the wrong crowd..any self-respecting Gears fan would not buy into this marketing BS..because they dont buy the game for the merchandise..they buy it for the game..not because they can go to there friends and brag about how they got gears 2..

my population in school is stupid and dosent know 2 ***** about video games..and everyday i hear some idiot talking about how gears 2 is the most awsomest thing in the planet..and now that this crap is enticing they even more by showing they bought the "popular" thing..

That's just stupid. You know a game series is getting milked when figures come out, like MGS ones, Halo ones, Mario ones, Gears ones, but an energy drink? What next, Gears of Gnaw, the only Gears themed restaurant!bobbetybob

i would eat there provided that i get to cut my steak with a lancer bayonette

Really? I don't mind them at all. Maybe its because I never intend to buy a game themed drink, but I frankly don't care if they make them or not.

ah great , looks like another overrated and overhyped shooter for the lemmings to buynaval

[QUOTE="naval"]ah great , looks like another overrated and overhyped shooter for the lemmings to buyhopesfall2own

How can any of those games be overrated? They're not out yet.

Overhyped? Maybe. We'll see.

Probably taste just as bad as the halo one.web966

the only shooter that has a chance is farcry 2, everything else i readily agree. Question are you gonna go into a massive damage control if something outscores it? and what i bolded is true, i enjoyed halo alot, but i think gears is ovverrate sorry

Well, opinions, me, for example, thinks that Gears of War owns Halo 3's soul in terms of multiplayer.

I have and it is. SP sucked alot and while the mp is fun its nothing new or special.

That's a sign that Gears 2 is gonna suck like Halo 3 did. Hopefully it'll be different and this "fuel" will actually do something.mohfrontline

halo 3 was magniglorious

halo is far from overrated, Final Fantasy is overrated, the Tales of Franchise is MUCH Better

if its a main final fantasy game then it automatically gets a 9+

Its not overrated.One of the best games this gen

Unless they put it on my budlight cans it wont matter to me. Thats all I drink when Im gaming. {at night}lolkie_81
