Honestly, Are You Guys Excited For Gears 3 At All?

Nope, i was untill Uncharted 3 was announceddvalo9

I'm excited for the story but i couldnt care less about the multiplayer, it's gonna be the same laggy, buggy inconsistant crap as Gears 2

[QUOTE="SHR3DD3D"]Dom's drama was the first step in giving females attention in the Gears saga.IronBass

That's not what we're talking about. We are not talking about if they were satisied with women getting attention, but howthat scene and whole drama was done.

In fact, how females are portrayed in Gears 3 (soldiers as capable as Gears), the exact opposite of how that scene on Geasr 2 was done, further proves they weren't satisfied with how the emotional content of Gears 2 was made.

Doubt you ever touched Gears 2.

That's too bad, I guess.

that may be true for gamers, but here on system wars fanboys hype up games for graphics all the time.

I'm also curious to see how gears 3 turns out graphically, since it'll basically be the 360's limit.

[QUOTE="IronBass"] That's not even close to be true. While indeed, graphics tend to increase the hype of a game (it happens all the time, Killzone 3, Uncharted 3, Crysis 2, LA Noire, etc), the hype of neither is founded only on it's graphics.MFDOOM1983

no, they could make a hypothetical gears 4 *look* better, but it wouldn't be any better technically.

basically Uncharted 2 was the last of the advancements on the consoles without having to make compromises on graphics. I saw it in killzone 3, it's better technically than killzone 2 but it also uses more visual tricks as well.

but hey, if tricks and compromises make a game look better than I don't care one bit, it still looks better :)

Its graphics are nothing special. It seems like it's a smaller improvement over Gears 2, than Gears 2 was over Gears 1 (and that was a minimal one).

I will get jacked up once the beta starts.

are you blind? gears of war 3 already looks on par with uncharted 2. I'm sure uncharted 3 and gears of war 3 will be super close in graphics, the only edge uncharted 3 may have is character models.

oh and sand :P uncharted 3 the sand king :lol:

[QUOTE="SHR3DD3D"]It definitely wasn't exaggerated. I know a lot of friends that IRL cried at that scene.IronBass

Now that's interesting.

But it's still one ofthe most ridiculed scenes this generation, that kinda proves how exaggerated it was.

tbh the only game to get me emotional connected was bioshock 1 and 2...yes i liked BS2....

i mean there are other games but bioshock... especially the end of the 2nd got me hooked

Will it?

No. Did not care for the first 2 at all. I might pick it up next year for $10 if I feel like having a good laugh.

It looks and (unluckily) plays exactly the same as Gears 2.

eboyishere

I loved BioShock 2 =D

I can't really decide which of the two I like more, and yeah, I was really hooked into their world and characters.

Especially on BS2, because the main character gives a much bigger sense of purpose.

yes.theuncharted34

yes this is the limit...gears 2 was 80-90 percent of the 360 so this will be the full potential

It's way more complicated than that. Not even devs know what exactly a console can do (its 100%), it's a process of learning and improving over the years.

If not even the devs know what the 100% is(fitting enough, that's something Gears of War's lead designer itself Cliffy B said), I doubt we can calculate that.

i thought there was something out there that proved that gears used the 360 to it's full potential...idk but yes i love the bioshock series it's sad that the director couldnt come up with the budget for it...since it's a R rated movie

ya

Yeah, I liked Gears of War 2 and I Pre-Ordered The Epic Edition and Will play the Beta when it comes out.

Not really to be honest. Much less thenI thought i'd be.

Your complaints are odd though. Uncharted hasn't changed at all either, it just looks prettier each time. Fair enough the second added multiplayer, but Gears had that from day one.

Yeah, should be fun. New modes look like a lot of fun, maps and guns look cool, and hopefully they will return to the shotgun fest that made Gears 1 fun.

I'll buy it... but I, like you, am not all that excited for it, not sure why... maybe it's because I'm more excited for games like Mass Effect 3, Skyrim, RAGE, Zelda: SS, etc. so my "hypedness" for Gears 3 is waning because of other titles I want more.

that looks awesome imo

[QUOTE="theuncharted34"]yes.IronBass

alot. since epic is the most technically competent developer on the 360, and has made the best looking game on the system (which still is) since 2008, and the fact that they're using the latest version of unreal engine 3 and also they know the 360 inside and out at this point. it will max it out, and it will look fantastic.

I also hope Gears of War 4 will be released on next gen platforms.

no?

actually at a certain point, consoles can no longer push more and more. there is a wall, and when developers hit that wall, the rely on tricks and compromises to make a game look better. sure, it may still look better, but technically it's not pushing much more than the previous game, example - god of war to god of war 2. sure god of war 2 looks better, but santa monica studios used tons of tricks to achieve it.

that's not a very good example, yes it does look stunning and around gamecube/xbox level, but the ps2 just couldn't handle it. it had tons of framerate issues. thankfully I waited and haven't played either ico or shadow of the colossus and now I can play them in Hd, and play shadow of the collossus the way it was meant to be played :)

EDIT: just so you know, I am not singling out the 360 in this matter, it applies to all consoles.

I don't understand how people are impressed by UC2's story...I mean it was just a means to an end. Its got a better story than Gears, but that isn't saying much. Orcs with flying machines coming out of the ground? They better somehow be related to mankind...dommeus

It is in my top 5 most anticipated games of 2011 at least, if not top 3. Can't wait. Don't know why everyone is comparing it to UC, but I might as well do the same. Gears 2 > UC2, in my opinion.

of course im excited. its one of 2011's biggest games Bar none.

it also concludes the series that put HD gaming on the map and defined this generation.

the recent NPD numbers of xbox 360's sold in february are only indicative that people are gearing up for this game.

let the haters hate.

All what you said only indicates that will be a fantastic looking, not that it will be 360's limit.
