[QUOTE="whocares4peace"][QUOTE="samusarmada"]Well it's about finding Cole's daughter isn't it. So I guess I can see why theyr'e touting the story as emotional.WINDWAKER1

Dom's wife

really :?

"The latest misson for Phoenix and Cole, beyond shoring up 360's lineup almost singlehandedly: to rescue Cole's daughter from a richer story, wider battle, and apparantly highly ambitious sequel." EDGE

wow that's badly written.

I know :?

:| Theres more emotions than just sadness. On topic,I'll have to see it to believe it. Cliffy B hyped Gears to have a good story...and it didn't.

I felt like crying after finishing Gears of War 1, not because it was sad, but becuase the game was so good I didn't want it to end.

Mmm, gotta love that developer hype. BioShock was about as emotionally affecting as a rock rolling down the side of a small hill.

Untill you found out that the rock hit a little girl on the head and killed her.

No seriously, even if bioshock had 0 emotional moments, that would still be 2 more than gears.

Yeah, they said the same kind of stuff with the first once, and that turned out great.

Well I guess that's good news then, considering Bioshock has one of the best stories of the entire gen. Maybe this time around, I'll actually be able to play Gears of War without hating myself on the inside because of its horrid story, bland characters, and cheap plot holes. I love the gameplay, but the story was so BAD.

Well it better be more emotionally affecting than BioShock, that game was so boring. The whole "we are going to make you cry:cry:, the choices are so morally demanding in this game" BS didn't have an impact on me.

I hope they at least retcon some reason into Gears 1 explaining why they didn't explain anything. That way, the rift in quality and quantity of storytelling between the original and the sequel won't be so jarring. One way to do that would be to make the game long enough to make Gears 1 seem like a single prologue chapter by comparison.

Is gears trying to pull a Metal gear solid?

if so, LMFAO!

seriously, it doesn't have the look, nor characters to even bother..it'll be more corny then anything.

I love gears tho (gameplay) the rest is crap, IMO.

I seriously hate the HALO road its taking.

Wait wait wait wait wait. Hold on one second.

More emotionally affecting than BioShock?

That implies that BioShock was emotionally affecting to some degree.

Heh.

I can't link yet. I'm not high enough level.

As you can see from the article though, they are going to turn this series into movies, books, and spinoffs just like the Halo series. GOTY contender confirmed. All those people who hated on the GeoW's story will do a 180 this time around and love the game. So how are you PS3 owners enjoying Haze?

GUNpoint_



ok, Tears of War 2. let me shed some tears for this garbage game with big, bulky steroid-induced soldiers battling some hardly creative enemies. hey, while i'm at it, i'll cancel my preorder to the REAL GOTY contender, MGS4. then, with the $60, i'll buy all the Tears of War 2 spin offs. K? K.

:|

i'm sure everyone would much rather knock out a soldier by grabbing their crotch
