- lil666jrkatz, on 05/25/2008, -0/+59I don't understand why every game doesn't implement Halo 3's replay system. I want to be able to watch the entire match at whatever speed I want and see whatever I want, pause, and take a picture, not try to capture something in real time.
- petecampbell, on 05/25/2008, -22/+47GOW 1.5?
- lcmatt, on 05/25/2008, -1/+25Lets hope they actually patch the game regually this time as multiplayer is just a huge glitch fest these days.
- Nuak, on 05/25/2008, -4/+24Nothing of this really matters without a well made matchmaking. I want to go online with my friends and play ranked matches as a team, like in Halo3 or COD4.
- SheepLicker, on 05/25/2008, -3/+15Never was into the multiplayer aspect of Gears, the single player kicked a lot of ass, though!
- paxgamers, on 05/25/2008, -7/+18I wasn't a huge fan of GOW, but especially with an improved multiplayer - new weapons and such, I'm very excited for GOW 2. :)
- kenvsryu, on 05/25/2008, -10/+20worked for halo 2.5.
- MethodicBR, on 05/25/2008, -4/+14GOW1 multiplayer was already pretty good for me... Anything new is wellcome ;)
- hollismb, on 05/25/2008, -0/+10'Past Tense'. And he didn't combine them. There's an implied 'to be' after the 'was'. Submitter spelled 'and' wrong though.
- renegadeafk, on 05/25/2008, -2/+11lmao
"Sure the textures look good and the models are detailed, but the game looks like crap" - LimeParrot, on 05/25/2008, -5/+14Wow... amazing... I kept a skeptic profile but it looks like GoW2 can really challenge GoW1!
- andrewacomb, on 05/25/2008, -0/+9Halo 3 did it right with the ability to record video and take pictures of game play footage. I'm excited to hear that Gears 2 can do something similar.
I agree with the author, every console game today should have these capabilities. - inactive, on 05/25/2008, -0/+9"Gears of War will have a Halo-style matchmaking system."
http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/05/24/gears-of-w ... - Ne007, on 05/25/2008, -4/+12I hope they fix the glitches, such as being able to accurately kill people close up with a sniper rifle. The sniper should be for sniping and people using it on the battlefield should get owned.
- getbusylivin, on 05/25/2008, -2/+9If something is not done about host-advantage and quitters in ranked matches I will not spend sixty-five dollars on this.
- xJarrett, on 05/25/2008, -0/+7Gears multiplayer, no matter how repetitive, always seems to draw me back for night upon nights of fun gaming with friends. =D
I can't wait to see how gears 2 multiplayer will be and how many more night of lost sleep will be had..
oh the fun times. - jeuhrn, on 05/25/2008, -0/+7I played GoW mulitplayer for probably close to a year. All the time until Halo 3 came out at least, I got sick of host advantage and all the glitching of course, but right now I'm back to playing it again with a bunch of buddies.
For me it's probably the biggest 360 title, and I'm giddy as a blind man in a fish-market. GoW2 is gonna be totally awesome. - NewSchool87, on 05/25/2008, -3/+9I've read it and I think this is good news but...what about the lag issue? Are they going to fix that?
Because that is the most important thing, in my opinion, as it kind of ruined the first game multiplayer. It's not fun when the host can take on an entire team. - GJBlizzard, on 05/25/2008, -3/+8I'm not going anywhere near this game until host advantage has been fixed.
- Ev3nt372, on 05/25/2008, -4/+9If there is no ranked matchmaking with your friends then this game's Multiplayer is worthless.
- graduisic, on 05/25/2008, -1/+5It's not that funny...
- truebeliever83, on 05/25/2008, -2/+6Dude you are crazy, I have no idea what kind of games you play of GoW is top ***** notch man! The graphics are some of the best in any video game, the cover system was groundbreaking, the loading screens were replaced by cut scenes that aren'tt even gay and you can kill things with a CHAINSAW ON THE END OF YOUR GUN, FTW!
You probably just suck at it! - RisingAgainst, on 05/25/2008, -1/+5That's not a glitch...seriously, how is that a glitch?
- bagboyrebel, on 05/26/2008, -1/+4but that's not how Gears works, it's designed to be a more tactical, small scale game.
- SonicRift, on 05/25/2008, -1/+4Yeah, I hate all those games with cutscenes that are gay. Like, when all these rugged game character guys start making out on the battlefield. Sooo out of place. Gears wasn't like that!
But seriously, imacbook... Are you sure you were playing Gears of War? Not... some flash game? What do you like? Tetris in terminal? - bagboyrebel, on 05/26/2008, -0/+3Just a hunch, but I'm pretty sure that was a joke.
- Jibberwalk, on 05/25/2008, -1/+4The original was 4v4...
- ThePwnyExpress, on 05/25/2008, -1/+4exactly... what if i respawn before i get the shot i want?... do i lose the chance to get it, or if you're going through the replay do you leave your team hanging until you're done... what if you're the last one left on the field, and you're too busy looking for a good pic of pwn?
- AzzidReign, on 05/26/2008, -0/+3Sounds like you want to play Halo.
- Sornos, on 05/25/2008, -3/+6But wait, doesn't Halo 3 and everything related to it suck? Isn't there "no innovation" what so ever in Halo 3?
- elambing, on 05/25/2008, -0/+2yeah, there was nothing wrong with that sentence...
- BiIlyMays, on 05/25/2008, -1/+3I just hope that they do not try and make it too flashy. I was worried when they I saw the "meat shield" in the first gameplay video. It seems that they are not overdoing anything though.
- BabyWookie, on 05/26/2008, -0/+2Bunny-hopper!
- doubledmateo, on 05/26/2008, -1/+3Maybe not a 'glitch', but definitely a design flaw.
- xino, on 05/26/2008, -0/+2I never knew you could take screen shots in Gears of War 1.
- doubledmateo, on 05/26/2008, -0/+2TOO
- Wootstapler, on 05/25/2008, -1/+3"River sounds very similar to an old Gears of War map I used to play frequently, but the name eludes me right now."
Canals anyone? - Nexiec, on 05/25/2008, -1/+3Pray for client side impact detection
- Sornos, on 05/25/2008, -1/+3God damn it, I clicked the wrong reply button. Again. My point stands though.
- djphilos, on 05/27/2008, -0/+1Gears of War was one of the best games on the 360. Anything new is a welcome.
- BobsYourUncle, on 05/26/2008, -1/+2Not that Epic gives a ***** what I think, but here's what I would love to see in GoW2:
- no host advantage (obviously)
- accurate stat tracking
- more comprehensive stat tracking (essential for weapon achievements)
- keep stats when host quits (I've lost too much due to some ***** host)
- easier mute options, opposing team with one button would be nice - dig1x, on 05/27/2008, -1/+2All these nitpicking nonsense.
"I hope they fix A,X,Y" -- you know what? Gears of War is *still* one of the best games available of the generation, get off all the nonsense.
Is it perfect? No -- no game ever is.
Sheesh, go play Haze if you think Gears of War had to many problems. - xdevit, on 05/25/2008, -1/+2"Source: CVG"
http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?i ... - Shaflugi, on 05/26/2008, -1/+2There's nothing innovative about having a replay feature, it's just a really nice feature to have. I'm ot sure about the original DooM, but most of its sourceports have replay features.
- Enochrewt, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1GoW MP was tacked on because it was expected that Epic have a MP aspect. It was good considering that, but horribly bad compared to most every other Epic MP game. The Bullet lag, Pistol+Melee, grenade sticking, unbalanced sniper, etc. Uno should be taken more seriously than GoW MP.
Hopefully they fix that with GoW 2. - crowbar77, on 05/25/2008, -1/+2I would rather they keep it similar to GOW1 just with a longer story and maybe a few more weapons. Otherwise they might end up getting away from what made it so fun in the first place, kind of like the halo series did. If it aint broke, don't fix it.
- doubledmateo, on 05/26/2008, -0/+1Ouch!
- Enochrewt, on 06/02/2008, -0/+1The bullet delay was a deal breaker for GoW MP.
Dig1x: Any advantage given due to lag equals a massive FAIL for a MP game. - doubledmateo, on 05/26/2008, -0/+1So, unless it's a different game?
- SonicRift, on 05/25/2008, -2/+3Is there anything they can do to ensure that I'm playing with people my own age? Like, can they ask you to name 3 Thundercats when you boot it up, and people who can do that play on one set of servers, people who can't play on another?
