Slow down guys, slow down. These screens are from the multiplayer.

Does that somehow make a fan feel better that the first one looks better for multiplayer?

This reeks of hidden context.

You'd have to be a total fanboy to say the above link doesn't look awesome

It did? I haven't seen screenshots from the first one's multiplayer for a while but as far as I can remember they look about the same. I guess I will have to check out some screens.

Spelling wasn't the problem.. I didn't think I had to give more hints for you to see where you went wrong.. Read the first letter of the first posters (topic creator) name then read the first letter of my name. Second hint: they are not the same letter.

I've underlined a keyword Now do you understand where you made a mistake in your quote below?

Well, you and Animalmother look the same anyway.

Based off the comparison pictures release it does. The character models look less detailed in the new on as well based on those pics. Not really a bash though as the first one they focused on the character details heavily, some of the best character models in a 360 game.

I didn't. Sorry, but it looked like Gears 1 with exteriors. Cliffy needs to learn a thing or two from Kojima on how to do scripted events that actually evoke excitement.

You don't have to be a fanboy if you don't feel the same way about it than others.

Well if that's all it was in the English langauge we usually start off the first word of the first sentence with a capital letter! I thought you deserved the same treatment.

Oh my god.

AnimalMother started this thread, not goatmother. That was his point.

Let's see if you get it this time.

I got Red no need to lose your shirt over it! No need for the quote either as it doesn't exist. (Are you that bored that you sit here on the refresh button? Dude, E3 is next week not this week.)

LOL, seroiusly I thought those hints would have been more than enough even for a xbox360 fan, you know how I underlined my name and all. My mistake

Well, I like F1 and sim racing games, so I loved F1 championship. It was really too hardcore for casual gamers though. The visuals are crisp, the career mode is very deep, the sense of speed is intense(better than GT5:P) and there's a lot of settings to play with. I'd say rent it first.

lucky bastard. I am stuck playing f1 2001 for the ps2.

Wow, they JUST released this AMAZING new multiplayer movie of GoW2, it was HD and 8 minutes...thing is it was pulled as fast as it was loaded. (It was up for only a few minutes, and my DL was interrupted)

The footage in the link does look awesome. I'm sure Gears 2 will look great; the second time around should allow for them to make it look and play much better than the first.

Now Gears 1, while nice looking, has been severely overhyped in the graphics department. While I enjoyed the stylish look of the graphics, it's not this gen's king like a lot of xbots still make it out to be. Luckily there's a lot coming out this fall because I'll be waiting for the PC version.
