As we all know, Gears of War 2 will be a great game...so was Halo 3. In Halo 3, there were minor upgrades from Halo 2, i.e. graphics, few new weapons, few new maps with old ones redone, but the storyline was the same. Gears of War 2 is going down the same path as Halo 3 with the few new maps, with the remake of a couple of others, graphics pretty much stayed the same, but with better gradients, and the multiplayer only went from 8 to 10 players maximum. The game will sell a tremendous amout of software, only because its it will be over-hyped. Hell, I'm going to buy it myself, just because I like the franchise. To some things up...

 

Gears of War 2 will do the same thing as Halo 3 with its precessor

 

actually multiple things in halo 3 were improved big time, including weapons and graphics. The graphics in halo 3 were big time improved over halo 2.

Halo 2 -> Halo 3 graphically was very underwhelming, how can you say with a straight face that they were improved "big time"?

It was basically the same game!

 

Oh my god. I point you to my previous post. One ingame of both Halo 2 and 3 . and one cutscene of Halo 2 and 3. Halo was certainly not graphically underwhelming. People who think that games where art direction is not pointing towards reality arent graphically good, are aloud their opinions. But personally playing Halo3 with 60 or more on screen characters and vehicles all with the same level of detail and no framerate drop is some of the best graphics Ive seen this gen. It's all very well that Gears had a massive 8 on screen characters.(I like the game but seriuosly) Bungie did an awesome job of Halo 3. It combined the best of Halo 1 and 2 and made it better. It's sales say everything. It has it's fans, I'm one.
