      Wow, that is pretty cool.

      They really opened up the interaction with the Locust. It went from just shooting and slicing to shooting, slicing, using as a shield, chainsaw battles, and now beat down. Good stuff Epic.

        This is borderline MGS4 hype for me!

            Re: Gears of War 2

            Something I saw in the features list for the game is weapon-specific executions. I can see these being pretty crazy, especially one for the Torque Bow.

            Gears 2 to crack down on Achievement whores

            Thankfully, it looks like Gears of War 2 at least is going to fight against the whiney Achievement whores, by limiting the amount of accolades players can unlock in a single multiplayer game.

            Speaking to CVG at Microsoft's media summit this afternoon, which you might've heard about already, Gears honcho Cliff Bleszinski said Epic was going to be "throttling" the amount of achievements players can unlock at any given point.

            "If you're going for headshots," he gave as an example, "you get one headshot that counts and any other headshots won't count towards your Achievement, so players don't just play to get headshots the entire round just to get Achievements."

            Multiplayer achievements just need to be done with altogether.

                  if it means people actually play multiplayer to win of fulfill the objective, then who cares? So far, GOW has been my favorite online shooter of next-gen but it pissed me off a lot when I'd play a ranked match and once the game started you'd see people go for certain weapons just to get certain kills for their achievements regardless of whether it helped the team or not.

                      • Carmine is back! (somehow)
                      • You can chainsaw somebody from behind - from their taint to their throat.
                      • So many more executions. Weapon-specific executions. There's people crawling when their down-but-out trying to get away. Hit A to crawl away faster. Curbstomp is of course back. Take somebody hostage and watch the body explode as your enemies are trying to shoot at you - limbs are going flying.
                      • Players who engage in a chainsaw duel are locked into the duel to win or to lose. There is an occasional draw scenario, but keep in mind while players are in that they are no longer in God Mode in multiplayer.
                      • Players can expect an even bloodier game. When Marcus is injured and moving along a wall, you will actually see some blood dripping down the wall behind him. Characters will leave blood trails, like when you have a meat shield (hostage) and dragging it around, it will steadily leak blood and leave a trail wherever you take it. It's a deeper, darker game, and there are buckets and buckets of blood.
                      • Multiplayer is 5 on 5. Shipping with more multiplayer maps out of the box that are new than what shipped with Gears 1. Many more multiplayer modes as well as greatly expanded online functionality. Rest assured it will be very competitive with other titles in the space.
                      • Players will be able to drive the Centaur Tank, which is kind of a combination of a tank and a monster truck with giant bouncy wheels. There will also be other vehicle sections. Players will be pleasantly surprised by twists we put on the formula.
                      • The campaign will be longer - more vehicle sections, lots more unique variety of Locusts, lots of wonderful weapons.

                      Video Interview - Cliff Bleszinski and Kudo Tsunoda

                      ...

                      Eurogamer Interview

                      Eurogamer: Another, perhaps less controversial criticism of the first game was the controls tended to get stuck. Is that something you've addressed for the sequel?

                      Cliff Bleszinski: Absolutely. I believe that hands-down, in Gears 2, we will have the best cover system ever seen in the videogame industry. I'd say about 90 percent of the time, it worked exactly how gamers wanted it to work. About 10 percent of the time, players were going into cover when they didn't want to. We put some of those tweaks in a patch for Gears 1, we iterated on them for Gears PC, and now we're bringing it full circle for Gears 2. I think players are really going to love the system this time around.
                      Eurogamer: Which aspect of the game are you personally most proud of?

                      Cliff Bleszinski: I'm proud of getting inside Dom's head a little bit more, figuring out who this Dom Santiago is, who his wife was and what wound up happening to her. I'm also excited to see the large scale battle scenes and a lot of the coolness we're putting in the multiplayer feature set.
                      Eurogamer: How have the enemies changed in this game?

                      Cliff Bleszinski: They're meaner, they're nastier. The Locust have been in the underground for a while, and there are a lot of indigenous creatures down there they've essentially mastered through various means. So you see Brumaks return and other nefarious creatures. I don't want to spoil too much, but I've been quoted as saying we have creatures that make the Brumaks look like baby panda bears. Very, very large.
                      Eurogamer: Gears 2 is out in November, a competitive time of year - do you think it'll be the best game out this Christmas?

                      Cliff Bleszinski: Hands down. But Fable 2 is amazing too.

                        Actually, most will be happy. I know I am. Multiplayer achievements don't belong in the games because it changes how people play online, and the fun just isn't there when you get in games like that. Look at Call of Duty 4, ZERO online achievements, and the game is played by "whores" like myself all the time.

                        Good move IMO.

                            Online achievements should be eliminated for every game.

                              For one I feel so ********.......I was not even interested in this game at first but after seeing theses videos...the only thing I can say is.....HOLY #!%.....I hated the online with Gears 1 because of the whole get the tork bow and hammer of dawn right off the bat...IDK...I just didn't enjoy it much. But I am def. getting this game when it comes out. I can not wait to beat some locust face in with my fist....I just wish I would stop seeing all these videos for new games. My list so far is NCAA 09, GEARS 2, Battlefield Bad Company, I think that is it so far.....(All for the 360). I am thinking about MGS and Little Big Planet for PS3 but I am not sure. All I know is that who knew Gears could get so much beter.
