OK, so they got a comic book writer... not a... script writer... or did they get a script writer after the comic book writer fleshed everything out?
Game developers worry me, sometimes. |

HAHAAA.... the emo comment... ok, now I'm on his side. "If they were all skinny, 150 pound white guys".
Got to seperate the hype machine from the person, funny when the hype machine fades away sometimes it's better just to be yourself. And that concludes todays lesson. |

A mid 1980s disaster-based urban shooter called Panic, starring cardigan-wearing indie fans would be pretty fucking cool in my book. Soundtrack including The Smiths, The House of Love, The Sugarcubes, The Wedding Present, Billy Bragg, The Cure, My Bloody Valentine, Dinosaur Jr, The Woodentops, Jesus and Mary Chain, and James.
Anyone? |

Gordan Freeman rocks! Half life has been consistently excellent.
Of course, his point was that a bigger character is easier to see on the screen, and since Half Life is first person and Gears is in the third, pointing out that Gordan Freeman worked as a skinny character isn't really relevant to his comment... |

While he's busy filling in back stories. I would like to know what the frak the main character's story is! How the frak did he end up in jail. What was his heroic deed that the troops love him for but, the top brass pretty much shoved him in a cell to rot because of. Surely that's more interesting and relevant than a hunt for a lost/not lost wife.
@Yossarian It's pretty easy to be not charmed by Cliffy if you meet him personally. The words arrogant prick spring to mind.

I don't suppose anyone asked if they've got rid of those tedious talky/slow walking bits after checkpoints but before a big hard battle...

Is it just me or are missions that involve helping other people in games really really boring or irritating (depending on how bad the AI is)? Personally, I couldn't give less of a crap about finding Dom's wife. Id much rather go somewhere to destroy something. I think the only time I've enjoyed missions involving helping others is in HL2 & expansions, because they fleshed out the characters so much that I didn't want them to die

I can't wait for the online MP details. The MP in Gears was solid and a great base to start with but with Gears 2 I hope they ramp it up even more - and create proper TEAM achievements like "Your whole team must survive the entire round 10 times" etc. rather than the weapon achievements from last time.
Gears still looks sick; the character models are ridiculously detailed and I can't really think of a better looking 360 game. Although I accept that there are other great looking games that play over much larger environments with many more opponents on screen at once. |

i love his reasoning behind the 400lb beefcake characters. apparently people have a hard time seeing pretty much any other videogame character because they're not muscly enough. methinks he is compensating for a lack of a certain something?

When you're actually playing GOW, does anyone really care what the character looks like? All I look at is the objectives and the enemies. All this talk of homoeroticism and machismo... I just couldn't care less. If I did, maybe I'd stop playing games where my main character is an Italian midget with the gayest costume of all time (red dungarees, ffs), plus a big bushy moustache and high-pitched voice who hangs around with a pink princess.
