Gears of War 2 might suck! Oh no!

xsynergyx | 20 days 5 hours ago | News | XBOX 360  | views: 1586
"Before you jump on my ass over this column's title, please know that the author of this column is a rabid Gears of War junkie. I've spent countless hours on the original Gears, and I still play the original game quite often. I played the game so intensely at one point, that I even got invited to a handful MLG tournaments (yes, I'm bragging) and had some high spots on the game's online rankings. As you could have imagined, the announcement of Gears of War 2 initially had me absorbed with hype,..."

Five HD Titles for Your Game Console

Euraces | 27 days 12 hours ago | News | Playstation 3 Wii Company Gaming Tech/Hardware  | views: 2491
"The Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3 have brought HD gaming into the mainstream. After years of High-Def in the living room being a hazy concept that really only affected A/V aficionados, the more technologically inclined, and the affluent, these videogame machines have made HD Gaming as simple and affordable as “plug n’ play.” But as with any consumer device, the hardware, for all its potential, is just that — untapped potential. What really brings out the true worth of the machine is the soft..."

The hottest ... oh, no wait... most grotesque females in gaming

StarJet | 29 days 18 hours ago | Blog | Misc  | views: 1956
"On a personal note this was the hardest list I've ever attempted to write. All of these girls are villains in some way, with exception of the Horde. It was a ridiculous quest to find a female in a video games who wasn't attractive. And not just attractive, drop dead, unrealistically gorgeous. I hate to ruin a simple list like this, but why? Why are there no normal to ugly looking females, let alone fat ones. I mean I hate to break it to you people, fats real. People are bitching about how the..."

Gears of War 2 - Counter Chainsaw Attacks!

Vito Raliffe | February 22, 2008 | News | XBOX 360  | views: 4084
"In the first Gears of War, getting chainsawed was an unpreventable means of death once your enemy was in range with their Lancer revved. For the many of you who saw the recent Gears of War 2 Teaser, the first thought that probably sprang to mind when the battle of chainsaws between Marcus Fenix and the Locust enemy occurred was, “So we’ll be able to do this in the game?”.

Yes, yes you will.

GamePro To Have Gears Of War 2 Special? No I Don't Think So!

Krunal | February 04, 2008 | News | XBOX 360 Misc  | views: 2638
One good marketing ploy would be tell people about a game that has yet to be announced... and it seems that, it is exactly what GamePro did with their latest issue which is to be put on sale just over a week from today.

That's right, the news that you read there is not actually true. There is no special announcement on Gears of War 2 in the GamePro magazine, and the special report, was actually to do about the XBOX360. What GamePro will actually reveal about the game is certainly a mystery...

Gears of War 2? No kidding!

StarJet | February 02, 2008 | News | XBOX 360  | views: 2440
"The original Gears of War came and conquered in November 2006, becoming the fastest selling Xbox 360 game in the process back then, handily crushing all competition that dared step in its way. So a sequel to the game was a given since day one. And even sooner according to Microsoft’s Jeff Bell, who said the purpose of the games “Mad World” commercial was to establish Marcus Fenix as the hero of the Gears of War trilogy.

Fast forward about 15 months, and it seems Epic Games is getting ready..."

"Asked if Epic is categorically never going to release them as downloads for Xbox 360 users, Rein said, "It looks that way."

Never? "Well, never say never, but I mean there's no plans to do it. The problem is the two versions aren't really compatible," he added, reiterating the previous explanation that the PC and Xbox 360 code-bases are too far removed from one another for an efficient patch.
