I love it :D. You're bookmarked for inevitable self-phail.
Here's a lil' something to think about. GT3 ( released 7/9/01 ) sold 15 million on PS2. What was PS2's userbase in July 2001?
Can you give me charts or something for me to see when GT3 sold the most? Actually, how much did GT4 sell?
Around 8.88 million to date, meaning quite a bit below that of GT3. Popularity slightly declining? Most likely.

what? lbp? lmao..
MGS 4, LBP, GT5, Resistance 2, KZ2.
Unfortunately GeOW2 is destined to be made using the UE3 which is already showing signs of age this gen, and we're already seeing games that look better than those made using the Unreal Engine. Secondly, MGS4, GTA IV, & Resistnace 2 will all outshine Gears 2 I'm afraid. Hell, Alan Wake will outshine Gears 2. That's the game to be hyping for the 360. But neither of them are confirmed for 2008... so I'm not really sure what to look forward to on the 360 this year although I will look forward to both of those games whenever they are released.
Also, this thread reeks of fanboyism anyway considering that this website is the only one on which the PS3 does not have a AAAE. It's pretty well accepted that the PS3 has a very respectable library of great games at this point.

Nope. Incorrect information. It has sold close to 15 million to date (2001-2008 ).

Any one else here think its rediculous to call the UE3 old? Bioshock still looks fantastic to this day, so does Gears of War.. Why in the hell would people demand a better engine when the one before us looks fanastic to begin with?

[QUOTE="ragrdoll21"]MGS4 is anticipated by most PS3 and 360 owners. GEARS2 is only wanted by 360 owners. Look at who creates the threads about each game.Reyes360
that sounds like you are making up the rules now..... lol i guess we shall see what the sales indicate, im sure excuses will roll in about that as well....
the last excuse on system wars was the 360 has shortagesgo on gametrailers and look at the news they were only doing last minute damage control

Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Gran Turismo 5, Mario Kart Wii and Grand Theft Auto IV will probably outsell Gears 2. The chances of it happening are more likely than not. Sorry.

:? what? soo...umm.....by 2008, it sold 15 million, by 2008 ps2 sold 120 million.
meaning it didnt sell that impressively for its install base.

learn how to quote, and gears 1 has sold more than MGS 3 hasnt it? with a fraction of the install base?

when was the last time you saw it on a chart since '02 or '03?
I wish people would curb their enthusiasm for Gears 2. Prettier graphics are nice, and the desctructability is basically an overdue requirement, seeing as that was promised last time but wasn't in the first game. Is it really going to matter as much when it releases, as its predessesor did when it came out?Mordred19
Why do you care? Does it bother you that much that people are enthusiastic about the sequel to a game that was a success in both sales and reviews? Plus, this is EPIC we're talking about, not some shoddy developer. Jeez.

So you are saying its more anticipated then Super Smash Brothers Brawl, Metal Gear Solid 4, and Starcraft 2? I find that a rather bold statement... And as I said earlier who cares about hype, it means nothing when it comes down to it.
Why is everyone so skeptical about the 08 release of Gears2? I'm genuinely curious, because I'm wondering if I missed some news somewhere along the line.musicalmac
I may be wrong but Gears of War was orginally suppose to come out in mid-2006 but got delayed to late 2006, so probably that's why everyone is thinking it won't come out in 2008. I'm not sure but that's what I heard.

Point is, it's still selling. Just because it doesn't make the top 10 doesn't mean it's not selling, my friend. It has sold close to 15 million units over 7 years.

Maybe it would be better to put it as the most anticipated Microsoft game. But then the thread was created by a Microsoft fan so the title is not very surprising...
Your post "reeks" pf fanboyism my friendUnfortunately GeOW2 is destined to be made using the UE3 which is already showing signs of age this gen, and we're already seeing games that look better than those made using the Unreal Engine. Secondly, MGS4, GTA IV, & Resistnace 2 will all outshine Gears 2 I'm afraid. Hell, Alan Wake will outshine Gears 2. That's the game to be hyping for the 360.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...where did that come from? I didn't say anything of that nature in the post of mine you quoted.:? I didn't even mention any of those games or say it's more anticipated than those.
First of all, its one game. second, im more excited about KZ2, Resistance 2, MGS4, and other games. but no doubt that i will still buy this game .. yes i have 360 and ps3.-HalleR-
Me too I'm more anticipating MGS4 and Resistance 2 than GEOW2, but I'm anticipating GEOW2 as much as KZ2 so I'll be playing all of them this year. I don't understand how GEOW2 makes the entire PS308 lineup garbage. If anything GEOW2 is on par with Resistance maybe MGS4.
You know what? Suit yourselves.
GEARS OF WAR 2 WILL OUTSELL GT5, MARIO KART WII, SSBB, MGS4, FFXIII ( IF ITS RELEASED '08 ), GTAIV AND ANY OTHERBIG RELEASES IN THE YEAR 2008.

GEOW is bigger than Resistance? you do know that those two games are on two different consoles and GEOW is to 360 that Resistance is to PS3 and thats it, both are majorly hyped and anticipated by both console owners. Hell Resistance is still the number one game sold on the PS3 besides Motorstorm thats because its bundled while GEOW isn't the number one sold game on 360 that would go to Halo3 even COD4 seems it might have a chance in outselling GEOW.

I find it funny that this guy talks bad about the 360 having games competing for the best seller haha if the PS3 actually had a good enough game lineup then maybe something would outsell that game resistence that was the lamest post I have ever seen you cow ----------------------------------------[QUOTE="Super-Punch"]You know what?

Hahaha sell more than mgs4 year right. MGS2 and Mgs3 sold 7 million and Geow1 5 million. With a fan base that has grown long since mgs2 and mgs3 came out i highly doubt that, i only ONLY see it outselling it in U.S. not worldwide
