He must mean the review averages of Gears of War 2 will bomb in comparison to Gears of War. Gears of War 2 average review scores will be around low 70's.

Sales of 3 million for Gears of War 2 would be a huge letdown considering original Gears of War sold 5 million. Wait Gears of War 2 is an upgrade of a generic shooter game with slightly better graphics and more levels and a few new enemies.

BTW: I wonder how starcraft and the others would respond?


Killzone 2 reviews will be around 5 at is best....


 That is as delusional as the topic of this thread, KZ 2 may not get a halo 3 rating but it will be 9+, it graphics are the best we've seen on a console to date and it gameplay looks very crisp based of the trailers.



I don't think GoW2 wil bomb I also don't think the game will sell excellenty without alot of MS marketing/advertising which i'm sure they will do.

I don't think it's going to get a 5, but saying it will be a 9+ game is just as wrong.

 



^KZ2 will get perfect scores 10 out of 10 across the board. I rest my case.

KZ2 rocks. Gears of War 2 blows.

 You seem stressed in this post lol



Why are people comparing KZ2 to Gears? We all know that insomniac is a much better developer so it has a greater chance of competing with Epic than Gearbox.

KZ2 vs generic shooter X is a much more fair comparison. But I think KZ2 might have a slight advantage against GSX in the graphics department but we will have to wait and see if the reviews pan out and how the game(s) play.



Tease.

*slaps forehead*

I was totally convinced that the OP made the thread as sarcasm in light of all the spectacular junk that Rock_on_2008 creates. The hints of sarcasm would be not only the ridiculous thread title, but the proposed review score 69/100 and the trade-mark invitation used by Rock_on: ^Discuss people

But now I'm leaning towards the fact that this guy is just as delusional as the other one.

peoples expectations for Gears of war 2 are far to high, and that is why it will crumble.

i have seen halo sized predictions, now come on that is just silly to be honest.

Well, Gears is a hell of a lot better then Halo, so it's not that bad of a prediction.


Whoa...easy there. Lets not get crazy.


 He's not.  As a tightly honed action game, Gears has no equal.  I love Halo tons (I'm having a big get-together with friends based around it this weekend), but its' main draws are the vehicles and the multiplayer options (Zombies FTW!)  The plain shooting parts are above-average, but nowhere near as tense and exciting as Gears.



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