The Way Gears 2 is lookin so far, from the amazing visuals to the outstanding new way to create Dynamic Multiple Figures on screen at one time, is makin me think that this Game will be one of the greatest. The multi-player looks so much funner and deeper than the regular Gears multi-player was, the new online screen shot system looks amazing and the terrific new executions,maps, modes and chainsaw battles look outstanding!! Im thinkin GOTY For sure, and if not some other game must blow everyone's mind away, cause its gonna be tough to beat this game, thats for sure... What do you think?

yea me and my friends are already detailing what we"re gona do once we buy the game. this is my most antici[pated game of the year, and i have no doubt that it will live up to its hype.

and since such im such a nice gamer and all, here's a link to a website that has a beta leakage. it's offscreen shooing so the quality is bad, but it's good nonetheless!!

xbox360fanboy.com

scroll down and it'll b one of the titles.

I think it is looking great! However, I doubt GOTY. I just can't see it beating out MGS4 or GTA4 as stated above. Nonetheless, I will be getting it on day one!

Call me crazy, but I say we should wait until it comes out before we call GoW2 game of the year. There have been some great games already this year, and in the next six months we've got some other big releases coming out as well.

Agreed! Even though there are only four modes, at least you get a unique experience from each mode unlike Gears 1. But I have a feeling that people will be disappointed if they overhyped this like they did with Halo 2 and 3. ZOMG!!! IT'S JUST G33rz 1.5.

The only reason I don't see Geow2 getting GOTY is that other then a some new gameplay mechanics and expanded levels, there isn't anything new coming to the table. It's very hard to improve on something that is already solid. And to tell you the truth,I could care less about it getting GOTY, I'm just pumped for the game in general.:)

I'm a huge Gears fan. I think 2 looks awesome. However, until Gears 2 actually comes out MGS4 should be GOTY in my opinion. Even over GTA4.

Hmm...MGS4 definate #1 goty title for now...gears will have to actually have a storyline and detailed backgrounds/characters to even compete with MGS4...otherwise then that, fallout3 and fable 2 have a possible chance, even spore for its creativity; we'll see soon enough :D

I still dont consider it Game of the Year cause I think GTA 4 will be game of the Year. Also Fable 2 might be better. If its anything like the first one then I dont think im going to get it.

i haven't played the first gears and I have nothing against it and all, but I think there are games with a better chance of getting GOTY than Gears 2.

It's looking like Gears 2.9, seriously, I am very impressed. Not just from the online multiplayer which has been released, but all the news and info so far, it's gonna be pretty epic and unreal.

I still don't know what was so spectacular about the first Gears. I know a lot of people love it, and it sold very well, but I never really enjoyed the game. I've not yet finished it, but that is largely due to the poor dialogue and story and a few annoying controls keeping me from even being interested in playing any more of it.

Undoubtedly, Gears 2 will sell very well. The first sold well enough and has a large enough following that they are already planning to make it a trilogy and make a movie, so there is something about it that sticks with a lot of consumers, but I don't know if it is enough to make it GOTY. We still have several months to go with some pretty solid releases lined up, so let's just wait to see what happens.

Maybe. But you really can't say anything until around november, when its actually out. The game will change (probably for the better) so much, from now until then. I would save these topics for a few more months

Altough Gears of War 2 is shaping up to be a great title, I believe it is in no way game of the year material. Why is that? you ask. Well for starters This year is already packed with legendary releases such as MGS4 and GTA4 and with the upcoming releases of extremely anticipated titles such as Fallout 3(Fallout fans have been clamoring for this game to come out for years now!!) Fable 2, Call of Duty 5, Spore and Mercenaries it will be very difficult for EPICS moneymaker to win anything but cold hard cash. The game will definitely be a blockbuster of EPIC proportions but will it earn game of the year? In my honest opinion no, but hey in this industry you never know whats gonna happen next. All I know is that I cant wait to slice my way up some Locust spine with the most satisfying weapon known to gamers ever......The chainsaw with the rifle on it.

Ok... I think it will get GOTY for 2 reasons.

1. Gears 1 was GOTY in 2006 with a limited multiplayer and at best a 5 hour campaign. WOW!!! Gears 2 has 10-15 hour campaign and as of right now 10-15 multiplayer maps with at least 6 different multiplayer game modes. Fast forward 2 years from the original and you have a foundational winning game platform from gears 1 that has been perfected and expanded. It is pushing the limits right now in Graphics and it preselling like crazy.

2. Gears 1 had a huge multiplayer following. It was #1 for online gaming for a longggggggg time. Look at last year. Call of Duty 4 won GOTY and it has a huge multiplayer following still.

If you know anything about gaming today. The obvious choice at this point will be Gears 2. Sorry guys

Does it look amazing? Yes. GotY? No, although it has a pretty good chance at third or second place.

All I know is if Epic does fix all the bugs thats were in gears one and add all the things they have promised so far for gears 2, It will be a great game. (flame shield activated) Now if GOTY does not go to MGS4 it should go to GOW2 not GTA4. GTA4 is quit possibly one of the buggiest games i have ever played and despite the massive evironments and GREAT story the bugs alone should keep it from getting any awards.

i agree with you about GTA4 but i do think that it should get something, just not GOTY. ANd i also think that we are forgetting that nintendo has been very quiet lately which means they are almost garunteed to announce something BIG at E3. In fact, i recall reggie saying that they had some big surprises for E3 on GTtv

Well if you didnt think the first one was fun, then there is nothing they can do they arent going to change the core gameplay mechanics just to taylor to the few people who didnt like it and screaw everyone else. And also they are doing a ton to improve to story this time around. do a little research before you make rediculous claims as such! haha :)

A Zelda game would be awesome, also it's rumoured a Kid Icarus game will be announced, no telling with Nintendo.

Personally I think Gears is the most amazing game ever and if Gears 2 lives up to what they have told and shown us, then sure it might have a chance of GOTY. But seriously for all those hardcore fans, nobody really cares becuase we are going to be playing the game regardless of what happens. Hope to see you on when it comes out :D

I think Gears 2 is shaping up to be one of the greatest titles to grace the Xbox 360, but as of now, hands down goes to Metal Gear Solid 4. But no matter what, this has been an amazing year for gaming so far.

Well from what I've seen about the game, including a GREAT interview with Cliffy apparently on 1UP about the multiplayer and other things, this game looks like it's going to raise the bar as much as the first Gears did. That being said, I would definitely agree it has the potential to be GOTY, but like others have said, there are other great games that have been released/will be released that it's way to hard to say for sure just yet. I hope Gears 2 takes the cake though. That would be great, haha.

I agree with GTA 4 not recieving GOTY, although I will disagree with MGS4 as well. It's too early in the year to determine it, we still have another half to go. MGS4 is an amazing game, but there are still games that can reach or surpass it. Time will tell.
