I bought into the original Gears hype and I won't be buying Gears 2, I think there are more gamers who think Gears of War was too overhyped by Microsoft, Epic and the US media and will be more sceptical with regard to follow-up hype for the sequel.

I think Resistance 2 will prove to be an eye-opener showcase title for the PS3's technical capabilities.

Your right, it's 2008's Lair. Wait what?

Lair has its impressive moments, but Factor 5 is no Insomniac.

Didn't catch anyone saying that before the reviews came in. I did however, regularly hear the words "technical showpiec" and "eye-opener."

Lair lacked the polish a game like this deserves, in parts amazing in other parts annoying because they show lack of polish compared to what could have been achieved when compared to the amazing parts and reviewers disliked the tilt controls. I think the scale of the project was simply too big for Factor 5 to handle, they showed potential but that's not enough.
