I just put in a preorder for gears 2 but I am not sure if I will enjoy it. I didn't play gears 1 so im not sure about gears 2. I have halo 3 and other fps games but i really didn't enjoy them. but since gears is a 3rdps i may think that i may enjoy it since i really liked re4 on GC.

What do you guys think?

Why would you put in a preorder for a game taht you've never really even taken a look at? My advice is play the first one, don't like it, cancel the preorder.

Give Gears 1 a rent first. It sounds like you may not like it.

If you liked RE 4 then you will love Gears 2 . Gears 2 seems like to be more in line with what you like to play

I think i should be more specific and ask how does gears play. I don't enjoy fps on consoles because of the clunky controls. I much prefer mouse and keyboards for fps like on a pc. are the controls similar to re4 on gears.

Why did you preorder it anyway? Don't buy games you know nothing about only because other people hype them. If you can't stand FPS at all because of the controls then you won't like Gears of War either. The aiming and shooting mechanics are exactly the same.

It's really just a matter of time to get used to the controls though. I got my 360 a few weeks ago and I will always prefer mouse and keyboard but I learned to handle the gamepad good enough to enjoy the game. It only takes a few days of playing. I finished Gears of War 1 on casual and I'm now near the end on hardcore difficulty despite the fact that I couldn't hit a house when I started.

Just get the first one. It's pretty cheap now and worth a try.

Regardless this game will be a system seller, and truthfully what else is coming out except for this, and maybe COD 5? Final answer is You bet your sweet a$$ you should buy gears.

I would say do not get "Gears 2" (I am assuming you mean that crapfest Gears of War?). It sends a message that developers will need to add more to their games than alien shooting.
