[11:07] Satchell yields the stage to Michael Capps from Epic, to "show off the next generation of the Unreal Engine on the Xbox 360."

[11:07] "You remember a little game we released called Gears of War...." he says to applause.

[11:09] After a brief plug for Unreal Engine 3, Tim Sweeney takes the stage to show off some conceptual footage of "what Gears of Wars might look like using the latest version of UE3."

[11:10] Sweeney shows off how much better the shading and character detail is with the new version of UE3. And then--BOOM!--a clip of a thousands-strong Locust horde running through a ruined city. Very impressive.

[11:12] Now it's time to show slicker water effects by having Marcus Fenix toss barrels into a lake at sunset. Then it's time to show off tissue effects by having Fenix fight a gigantic "cube of meat."

[11:13] Some very impressive destruction effects are shown off...and then the Unreal guys walk off. The words "Gears of War 2" and "sequel" are never mentioned.

[11:39] Then--BANG! Lights go down, all-read trailer showing Marcus Fenix and Locusts comes on

[11:40] After the obligatory chainsawing, logo for Gears of War 2 comes on the screen.

[11:40] Cliffy B then chainsaws through a sheet behind the stage in a post of smoke.

[11:41] "Gears of War one was a setup," he says, "Gears of War 2 will be much bigger and available exclusively on Xbox 360 in November 2008."



there was some talk of other games in between the time. i cant wait for this game. should be a lot better, and i just hope its a complete full game and not something rushed to get out before the holidays. but i trust them with this franchise.


Also Ninja Gaiden 2 has been confirmed as 360 exclusive and comes out June 3rd.

that statement came from the mouth of the main man behind the game, Cliffy B. so he more then anyone else knows when the game could come out.

That statement came from Cliffy B because Bill Gates told him, "Tell them that the game is coming out in November" :cheeky:

I kinda know how these things work :knockout:

well if you know how these things work then you'd know the game is coming out in november. microsoft will force them to have the game ready even if it means leaving some stuff out to hit the street date.

Sometimes you have to talk out of your ass to see who really knows what they're talking about.

A 2 year production cycle sounds about right. Of course it will be out in November. There's no way MS allows a Christmas season to go by without having a blockbuster title on the shelves.

This is the new tech demo of the new features in the Unreal Engine and IGN.com is saying all this stuff should be implimented into Gears of War 2.

No more 5-6 locust fights, there can now be up to 100 on screen at a time. Water envirnoments look better and so does the lighting. Descrutible environments, etc. peep the vid.

You missin out. Spilling someones guts ...with the shotgun is kind of a stress reliever. Watching someones head explode like a pumpkin when it's hit the sniper rifle brings with it a sick sense of gratification as well. Turn the volume up.
