Some people really don't understand what they read.
I was howling with laughter over "some of the game's more intellectual themes got lost during the design process." though.
Yeah, and someone missed the subtle romance of Blue Velvet.

"the game's more intellectual themes..." Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaa....heheheheh. I really have nothing much more to add than mocking laughter. I liked the first game because you could ruin peoples days BY USING A CHAINSAW GUN! If you want "Intellectual themes" and have 80 hours to spare, play MGS.
Well alot is answered in the comics and hopefully the next and final book will square everything off, that's what's been promised.Sniper Team 4 said:
So were these intellectual themes lost before or after they strapped a chainsaw onto a machine gun?
Thank you Grey, you've just brightened up my afternoon.
Of course, according to Cliffy, giving Gears of War 3 an 8/10 is a sign of sheer burning hatred for it.
Cliff, you can't claim that Gears was the most awesomest game ever and then start talking about how you were disappointed with it. That's Peter Molyneux's thing.

Everyone has the power of hindsight, Cliff. It doesn't make your work any less retarded. I'm sure in hindsight Zack Snyder wanted Sucker Punch to more like Brazil and Clockwork Orange, too.
Maybe if you had this hindsight after the first Gears, you could've put those ideas to good use. But you didn't, did ya?

I can kinda see where he's coming from. Throughout all 3 Gears games I felt that there was something else there other than shooty fun.
Actually I found that they're best played as co-op campaign since you get more of the "Band of Brothers" feel if you're actually playing with someone else. That helps you kina see what Cliff is getting at but it's still buried under a pile of macho bullet spraying washing machines.

Primary response: Well, DUH! (to title)
Secondary response: You mean the heart of it wasn't a gay space marine bromance with the substance of rice cakes?

Cliff never said he hate gears, he just said he would have preferred a different direction.80Maxwell08 said:
I like it the way it is personally.
Well I would say to Cliffy, now you have everyone's attention, make something that might be less appeasing.
The Gears trilogy has ended now right? Time to move on, I liked
Gears, but after 3 games, you really have milked it in my opinion.

Yes yes they all want to be the next Tim Schafer, but that doesn't mean they all got what it takes.
Hell Cliffy we haven't even seen you try, and don't tell me you havent noticed how brainded Gears is for 3 bloody games.

It's the only game that does cover based shooting somewhat fun. It's become a bad stereotype because everyone else is making cover based shooters these days, and they're doing a terrible job at it.
I'm playing through GeoW3 with a buddy right now, and I can't believe how bland it is. There's no real pacing, no real story. The only time you're not shooting things is when you're walking REAALLLLLY...... SLOWWWWWWLY through some uninteresting bit of scenery... and then you start shooting again. It's utterly predictable in every way. Even
had little to no emotional impact.
Mass Effect 3 does it better than GeoW3 in most respects, including combat.
