The detail is just as good as Gears 2. If you're making your judgements by screenshots from old builds, you're sadly mistaken. Compared to Halo 3, Gears 2 doesn't make use of a palette with many colors. It's pretty much grays, browns, and oranges.
Do I sense sarcasm?
I already knew about Wardevil, but it's nice to get some more news on it.
First one was boring as hell. All you were doing was shooting the monster, and he hardly ever came to attack you.
Second one seems more suspenseful though.
The whole cutscene thing has been with the franchise for a long time. Plus, Kojima himself said that the game was made for the FANS not the NEWCOMERS. I've played only MGS2 and MGS3 and the cutscenes were pretty long so the fact that people say that MGS4 was more of a movie doesn't surprise me.
It's a crappy game... in YOUR eyes. Get some new lenses
You hit the nails right on the head. All the fanboy stuff is all ignorance. Gears 2 will be played by many, and same for LBP and R2.
So what's wrong with having an estimated 420 hrs in the game? I hope you people realize that that's the amount of time it takes to unlock EVERY piece of content in the game (levels, equips, etc). The fact that it'll take this long means that R2 will have plenty replay value, who doesn't like that in a game?
If Gears 2 was estimated as long as that, all the fanboys will be screaming about how much better Gears will be better. I'm no fanboy, but I'm sick and tired of this **** I've...
Sounds interesting... but it's still a rumor until someone runs some tests
I really hate how most people talk **** and scream racial slurs. Just one of the reasons why I didn't get a 360
It's quite obvious that they made more than half the amount of money from the Xbox. Of course, the PS3 still has a long way to go though.
Those are some nice shots of the game. Doesn't look as gray as some people claim. It just seems to me that Epic likes to use a darker pallete.
Guess this game really does have it's worth. I might enjoy playing it with my friends :)
I was expecting a 5... but this score makes sense though
Awesome article :)
2 wrongs don't make a right
Gears may also get a 9.5, but I doubt it'll get a 10. Pretty much the same thing as Gears 1. They haven't really improved much except the graphics, plus some new weapons.
I think it's mainly got to do with their relations with Sony and other studios. The new dev tools would be a huge help, and since it's a first party title, they got a good budget and plenty of support
"As for the new toys, I particularly like the FarEye (a Chimeran assault rifle that blurts out a three-bullet statement and also fires a weird lightning-ball thing)"
The Fareye is the sniper rifle. The gun he described was the marksman :|
But the thing here is that fanboys always try to upset the balance of just how good each game is. Why do people care about bashing games another platform is getting?
