Still loving the whole 'Badass' angle on Gears interviews.

Nice job Ellie!

Wasn't that interview done a month ago? Either that or the questions are just the same.

''We don't have any announced plans on the demo side yet. We don't have any announced plans on the demo side yet.''
I'm guessing that they're lacking plans regarding any demos yet.
And the Badass thing has already outstayed it's welcome. Not funny!
Apart from that, good interview.
I just hope that when the guy refers to all the changes in gameplay mechanics, he isn's just on about the chainsaw duelling, because that'll feel new and exciting for a whole 2 minutes.
''Ohhhhhhh, I'm tapping B a lot, yeeee haaaaa, look at me go''

He could have mentioned if there were any announced plans on the demo side yet.

Sheesh.

I think the guns sounded too wimpy in Gears of War. In Half Life 2, the machine guns sound properly noisy. Especially the AR2 and its
distinctive ability to make your ears bleed.

Gears of War: tittititititititchchchtititititititi **chchc** titiitititititit

Half Life 2: THUDDATHUDDATHUDDATHUDDA *beep bloop beep* THUDDATHUDDATHUDDATHUDDA

Clearly, badassedness is all about sound design. Lightsabers would be rubbish if they just went bleep.When people fall from great heights, there is little drama sans Wilhelm scream.

It bugs me no end when I hear about Cole being described as a racial stereotype, just because the character is black. All the characters were stereotypical, regardless of their skin colour.

Looking forward to Gears 2 - A LOT!

I think this game is going to 'blow me out'.

Did anyone else find the whole thing a bit vague and a repitition of the previous articles?

Will thier be a demo on LIVE? I really don't think he answered that question. ;)
And he sure likes to blow stuff, this guy.

Still, his comments sound very objective and fair. Heck, he gave gears 1 an 8 (like a certain unknown website did, resulting in masses of fanboys).

No. He was asked about the weaknesses of the first game and told more and was more honest than 95% of the "professional" reviews out there. I am going to go read ThreeSpeach now.
