What do you think the chances are that this game doesnt get pushed back? Every game now a days gets pushed back a lot.

If it does its over. XBOX 360 wins!

So Gears of War will ensure that the 360 wins? Okay :roll:

Anyway, I think it will be delayed. Just doesn't seem realistic in my opinion for it to be released so soon.

Same was said it was Halo. It was a great game, but it's not going to win the console race.

Its the Unreal engine, first game was done within 2 years, this won't change...they're not building a new engine or anything, just using an updated one.

Gears was an above average game with a good but short campaign that offered little replay value outside of difficulties and the COG tags. And had a sub-par multiplayer experience that was often times plaugued with so many problems it was damn near broken. So yeah, Gears 2 is 360's trump card.

its called a VIDEO GAME...whats there to complain about, i spend countless hrs on gears, addictive, fun..and well made. Yes the story was kinda short and boring, but online and the overall ideas behind it is top stuff, IMO and many others. lag isn't really a problem with me, i have yet to come across a glitch to ruin my experience.

stop nit picking and accept it, its a great game, the scores show that.

Doubt he is but the Glitchs were only abused and uses by people hated by lots and hosting advantage was only bad when the host had a horrible connection.

THE STORY WAS AWSOME

lol WHAT?

the fact that its highly rated by many reviews and gamers...means it's not great?

don't hate things that are popular, it won't make you COOL or stick out. Just because you don't like it..doesn't mean its overrated, not great.

geez.

I honestly have no idea if it will or not. I know epic started working on it a good way before they even completed making gears 1. So as far as i know they have a good portion of gears 2 already done. But a lot of high profile games get delayed. I think epic will have it done by november 08. Microsoft will do anything to help them complete the game.

Agreed. I think this game will get pushed back. I made a similar thread a few weeks ago, and no lemming thought the game would get pushed back. Of course that is logical thinking since Epic has never ever delayed a game...:roll:

No, I'm sorry. Ket posted real problems - facts. Gears had a short, storyless single player backed up by a multiplayer that is extremely buggy.

See those scores, does that seem .... just above average to you ?????

hahahahahaha

24 PERFECT scores (AAAA, 10/10)

73 AAA scores (above 9/10)

A pure mediocrity indeed

GEARS OF WAR SCORES

Have a look at Bioshock scores too

BIOSHOCK SCORES

25 PERFECT scores (AAAA, 10/10)

62 AAA scores (above 9/10)

Both Gears 2 and Bioshock 2 are confirmed 360 exclusives, 360 will have some of the best scoring games in hostory

You people say it is unrealistic for it to be finished early... it is because it isn't early... it has been under developement since Gears of War 1's developement... Epic just knows how to market unlike SCEA... they don't show us "Gameplay" videos 3 years before the release of a game...

Sorry to break it to you, but if they are on PC they are not exclusives. Or we could just call Call of Duty 4 a Sony PS3 exclusive since its on no other Sony platform but the PS3...

Mass Effect 2 will come to 360 first, and that is what matters to me, i am not waiting years to play it

And Bioshock 2 is for PC, yes, but still in consoles only 360 gets it

Hey I love Gears more than anything on the 360. Ket87 is right about most things except when he says "it was damn near broken". That IMO was harsh. Sure Gears has a lot of glitches and bugs but that doesn't mean the MP experience isn't f'n damn enjoyable. Gears 2 will kick butt based on the updates to the UR3.

Games on more than one platform are not exclusive... this has been discussed before and is a system wars forum rule.

Can I ask how old you are?

Gears was meant as a trilogy from the start and most of the time the next game starts development midway through the previous.

but a game can be console exclusive i mean if you have aps3 and you dont have a gaming rig you cant play gear or bioshock in order to play theses games you have to spent money and xbox owner only have to buy the game so if the better game are on one console you dont have it suck big time to have the wrong console .

This must be coming from a PS3 owner, this is Xbox360, where games hardly get delayed, so yea, i believe it is possible, Gears 1 made it in time, and they were on a tight schedule, so i say it is pretty realistic.

Hello Fellow Gamers (HFG). Of course Gear of War 2 will be released on time. Why wouldn't it? Epic have been working on Gears 2 probably since Gears 1 release. We all know that the game will build a lot of hype by then. It will sell like crazy. Heck it might even dethrow the mighty HALO. Who knows .. Epic may have an EPIC Title on their hands.

Could still be delayed, like Halo 3.
