Its not about challenge but gamer engagement. Tripods coming from all sides, timer ticking, alarms going off...all while being attacked by those robo mini tripods.

Besides, you must have played on easy or something as I clearly remember that being plenty challenging. I remember having 1 rocket launcher which can take 1 tripod down. the other 9 you had to take down with those mini bombs and gravity gun

I challenge your bullshit call...porn stories as bad as they are, rarely interfere with the action for more than a minute or two...

looks like an updated gears of war 2 final game should look very decent.

pictures are high res promo shots

I liked the artwork.

This is hot stuff. Hot, hot stuff.

I hope it is better than Gears 2 by the same degree that Gears 2 was better than Gears 1. I think my head would explode.

I am in the camp that liked the campaign of Gears 2 more than Gears 1.

Well there you go Cliffy. Keep the heavily scripted story driven games coming. Pretty much everyone likes it better...

I may pass on Gears 3 but most people will buy it I guess. Who knows, maybe Gears 3 actually has a story worth pausing the game for...or skip cutscene button.

Man try to be in the minority with a measure of grace, here. Fine line between holding opinions and constantly disparaging what people like.

I thought I did just that... I conceded that I am in minority.

"With a measure of grace" is the operative phrase, here.
