They should've stuck to 4v4 in my opinion. 5v5 doesn't seem like a clean number. That, and it's when controller sharing in split screen gets messy.

I agree, but when im playin split i'll just limit it to 4 v.s. 4

maybe if the maps are layed out according to the new number it will work.

Don't forget Meatshields. Frankly, this game is more innovative than Spore, The Sims and Deus Ex combined.

Gears of War 1 was one of the first games to successfully implement it's stylistic approach to combat to such a high degree. I mean, alot of people hail Doom as the father of FPS but there were other games before that.

That's not helping Gears of War's case. Because I felt that is what I did most of the time, or at least that's how I felt about it's multiplayer.

All I know is that I'm still enjoying Gears 1 online. I don't care if there is 2 extra people or not, as long as host and some of the lag issues are fixed they can throw together 10-15 new maps or so and I will be extremely happy.

So you are saying you died first all the time?

BTW the MP for Resistance SUCKED! What makes anyone think it will be any different? So adding even more people into the jumbled mess makes the game better? Cows are quick to point a lack of innovation in Gears 2 when they boast about Resistance 2. Two totally different games that play completely different. Talk about hypocracy.

Nah man! I love going shotty in Gears. It makes me so mad though when a host shotguns you from 500 feet away, ugh, lol. Nothing worse than watching your head get popped off by host shotgun from far away.
