Gears of War 2 will never be Shooter of the year because it can't be played with a mouse+keyboard.

That never stopped GoldenEye and the Halo series from taking the honors. If you mean your personal opinion on the best shooter, than sure, rock on with that mouse and keyboard. If we are supposed to be talking about what we believe will get the honors, I don't think there are any sane answers other than Gears 2, when all platforms are considered.

 

Both of you DO know that GeoW2 and Halo can be played with a mouse+keyboard, yeah? Seriously, what prevents them from being played that way?

 

Huh? Do you mean Gears of War? GOW2 isn't out for PC so I don't see how it could be played with a keyboard. Regarding Halo, it did eventually go to PC, but my point was that the console version in 2001 got many awards over PC shooters, so the blanket statement that nothing other than PC shooters can be shooter of the year is wrong, since they have been awarded it in the past. I'm sure what shio eally meant to say originally is...

"I understand that Gears of War 2 will most likely walk off with countless more awards from multiplatform publications and that insults me and boils my blood, so I will inject my opinion as fact to get an internet forum win and calm my blood pressure down."
