Forums - Microsoft - First Gears 2 gameplay video will be at 1up on Friday :-)

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3167719 Gears of War 2 gameplay video. This Friday. 10:30 p.m. PST. That's all you need to know, really. 1UP's GameVideos will be the very first place online you'll be able to see the footage, and we'll be posting it in all of its HD glory. And trust us when we say you're going to be blown away. So this Friday, go to dinner, go to the movies, or go play some GTA IV -- but whatever you do, make sure you check back here at 10:30 p.m. PST for the exclusive first Gears of War 2 video. My thoughts? YAAAAAAAY! I loved the first game SOOOO much! I hope they show off: -a piece of a fight with hundreds of locust (but, of course, not it's ending). -the promised fully destructible terrain -revamped multiplayer with support for up to 12 players (a modest upgrade since the game wouldn't work well with tons of players) -Coop for four or more.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I want to see the New Characters

but hope they dont get rid of the Original characters



This game will be awesome, but it won't have hundreds of Locust running around. They just said that the engine "could" do that. At the end of the day though, that just wouldn't be Gears of War. The franchise is about tight, cover-based fighting, not all-guns-blazing war between forces of hundreds.



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

Starcraft: They said there will be a couple of battles like that. However, you won't be running around in the thick of it with equal amounts of Cogs--you might have to defend an entrenched position for a while, or you may have a Hammer of Dawn . Actually, Cliffy specifically said that a locust drone is a locust drone (as in they won't make an individual of this large crowd weaker), but they'll be giving you ways to deal with large amounts of them like that.
