Heron Blue by Sun Kil Moon

OT: Yes, yes I am. I'll give to Epic, they know just how to make a trailer to make me want a game and play it... NOW!

although hopefully they'll do a better job at presenting their... well, it's at least a decent story. Not particularly bad or amazing, just slightly above average with terrible presentation and lots of potential

I can't wait until it comes out. I'm not a shooter fan but I do like the Gears series quite a bit. Just one more year guys [:

I don't think I'm going to be buying this game. I'm still interested in the Gears story, and I'll definitely rent it to play through the campaign, but after how badly Epic messed up the multiplayer in Gears 2 (definitely the most I've ever been disappointed by a game's multiplayer), it's tainted the entire series for me, to the point where I don't even want to own the next one.

Still the story does seem interesting, and I'm interested in what new gamemodes will be introduced, but I'm only going to rent the game, or at best buy it used for like $20 at some point.
What exactly was wrong with Gears 2 multi? I've never really been a fan of the multi but I've never understood what was unbalanced. Didn't look all that different to me. (Actual gameplay, not lag)
There was a huge host advantage, multi could be very glitchy at times, and the shotgun was hideously overpowered. Ok, everyone had a shotgun so it wasn't really unfair in that sense, but it was still silly.

I also really didn't like having to play as the Locust. The whole campaign/Horde consists of cutting them down like wheat, even on the hardest levels, and not giving them any sort of character (Skaarn/RAAM excluded) and then having a 50/50 chance of playing them was annoying. I would have prefered the whole multi to be COG on COG, with different colours identifing teams.

They killed Carmine off before the trailer even started this time. It's just going to be

*Carmine starts chocking on ash*

Woops, there goes Carmine

*Carmine drops dead leaving heroic corpse, game starts*

Well since I still think Gears of War is about as stereotypical as FPS's get, I'll give it a miss. I played the first two and they bored me to death. The story is basically "There are some aliens. Kill them" and the gameplay is just feh. Not worth a buy.

I hate that it's going to be an entire year, and we've got to account for delays like BioShock 2... I hate getting hyped, but I think I am...

3. I take it as awhile in the future, simply due to the gray in Dom's hair and beard, however, it could be ash as well.
"therealcliffyb - Dom's beard isn't grey, it's covered in ash in the trailer. (He's not Old Snake. :))"

Quote from CliffyB himself. It's just ash.
Good, or he would have had to explain why Cole doesn't age, then we would find out that when you reach that level of badassery you become a demigod and well it would have been a long and tiring plot point.

Oh, and can we please get a Thrashball '11. I wanna play as private Augustus Cole before the killed shit with guns, and just killed shit by running into it.

I didnt go crazy, but its Gears and that means its good. I dont think the 12 month wait will effect me too much. Although it would if it was a really well designed gears RTS. I ran across a thread on a forum awhile ago that was asking what popular fps should have a rts port. Gears was one option and the more i think about i the more i like the idea.

damn now i have the urge to give the double-tap "fuck all" command to a billion ant sized tanks that cannot comprehend the mighty authority figure that floats above then watching their every move.

Most likely Dom, it looks like him. I think the Woman in the vid is Anya, it would make sense if the last city fell and they were all alone, and if youve read the gow books she knows how to fight.

It's a definite buy for me. And I'm not just saying that because I'm a huge fan of the games. It's actually the first game I ever played over Xbox Live. Me and my brothers love the Co-op and we enjoyed the Horde a lot.

Point is, the games have always been great to me and I hope the third meets, if not surpass, that greatness of the previous games.

God no, I bought both Gears and tried to enjoy them. It's just so.... awful. Obnoxious characters, horrid story, dismal setting. After playing through 1 & 2 in an attempt to understand their massive popularity, I can safely say that I won't give a toss about the third.

Well, it's a third person shooter in a sea of third person shooters, but then again it's still the best cover based TPS I've played.

I mean the only two TPS that have come close were Mass Effect 2 and Uncharted 2, but Gears still puts those two on its knee and spanks them silly.

As for the new trailer, it sucks.

The teaser trailer for the first Gears featuring MadWorld was really cool, and this one is just trying to copy it.

I'm sorry but these were the thoughts that came to my mind while watching:

1) Dom looks bad ass with a beard
2) Marcus looks incredibly gay with the sleeveless armour
3) Double barrel shotgun = awesome!
4) There's a chick?
5) There's a CHICK?!
6) But... Wait... A chick? I mean, how would she lift all the armour and weapons and such! She's a twig to the rest of them!
7)... Holy crap was that Mike Tyson? No wait, Cole.

What I expect: Another decent game to play through a few times. While I haven't been a massive fan of Gears of War, I will admit that the gameplay has been fun, even though the story is silly as all hell.

It does look quiet good. I hope the 4 player Co-op means all on one console. My biggest pet peeve about games is when they say it's Co-operative and it only applies to playing with someone over xbox live. Although I do have xbox live I would rather play with someone in the same room as me.

So is it going to be another Gears of War 1? Cause there is almost no distinction between 1 and 2.
Well, that's kind of they're thing. They don't change up the formula to much so they just add little things and fine tune.
