I much prefer the Mad World ad, it stuck in my head, and I kind of decided then that I would have to play Gears of War at some point (it took a year and a half but it worked!)

The problem is that I did not find these emotions much in the first game, hopefully the second will have something there

Another E.P.I.C. Gears of war advert confirmed..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I must have seen the Mad world advert for Gears 1 well over 200 times in the space of about a month in 2006 on various T.V. channels ranging from ITV to Sky here in the UK, Get ready for another Microsoft advertising blitz with Gears 2

Very good ad, not much more I can say.

This is pretty surprising to see here.. considering i just got back from seeing Max Payne, and this ad was shown before the movie... I was considering making a thread about how stupid the ad was, and how irrelevant it was to the game/gameplay itself... now i'm glad i didn't, because of the backlash i would have gotten from all of the people in this thread :P

This ad was 'EPIC!'...

Ooeh, see what I did there?! ...

 I agree. This is a great ad. but the Mad World ad was so much better. But I wouldn't go into 2 hoping to find those emotions because I would bet just about anything that you won't find them. I really hope the extent of those feelings weren't shown in the ending because if that's the best they've got, that's really sad. But on the bright side, it will be hella fun to play! The online modes sound great too. And I'm sorry, but blowing people into pieces with a shotgun just never gets old to me.

Meh, why couldn't they advertise using Randezvous with Death? so much cooler!

They should of used rendezvous with death one, that would of been the most badass commercial ever.

Not that impressed to be honest. As some other posters have mentioned I think the 'Rendezvous with death ad' was far better.
