November is the same release month as Sony's big game with a lot of hype behind it Little Big Planet. Will Gears of War2 steal a lot of the thunder from this ambitious game.

Of course it will since it will be hyped and advertised everywhere just like Gears of War 1.

Please don't assume LBP will sell as well as GeoW, or DMC 4, for that matter. It's not gonna be a system seller, its a new franchise, it'll break a million, cause of internet hype.

LBP 2 might be a system seller, but not LBP.

Anyway, even if it possibly could, there is no doubt GeoW 2 is gonna stifle its hype, GeoW 2 could stifle any games hype except GTA or SSB at this point.

they are completely different... LBP is an original concept of a game though ambitious and seems like it will bring something fresh to gaming... Am totally looking forward to LBP..

However you cannot compare them, first let's see some in-game footage and gameplay action regarding GeOW since I am not that optimistic it will be launched this November... Still am sure will enjoy GeOW at my friend's house, since the first one was great..

If you want to compare GeOW 2 to another game would make more sense if it was released same month with MGS IV... Cause that would be one hell of a sales battle :)

Let's see, heavily hyped third-person shooter vs the videogame equivalent to youtube. Ya, this is such an excellent comparison.

GeoW2 will steal hype but it won't determine itself to be any better than Little Big Planet. As, we don't know. To be honest, I'm still looking forward to LBP. GeoW2 doesn't interest me for various reasons. I know the actual Gameplay is fun but everything else about the game makes it droning for me. At least LBP is something a bit refreshing.

Though hype: GeoW2>LBP. Just because Microsoft is going to do what it does best, milk the hell out of big titles like that. I'll drive by launch and compare my Halo 3 launch photos.

GeoW 2 is a nothing killer, just like Halo 3.
