Well this is not a question, more like a suggestion, here it is: Are we gonna be able to change weapons while we are running? You know cuz sometimes u start running and when you get to ur enemy you didn't have the right weapon equipped and its a sure death... Just Wondering... Thanks!

you're just mad because he's better looking than most in the field and it effects his attitude and infamy. and it defys the traditional dorky standard look and vibe.

Will there be a feature that will allow you to customize your COG or Locust character in multiplayer matches? I'd like to see some Carmine variations.
Will we also get to see the Locust mating ritual?

You know their are more then just shooting games out, yet you keep reproducing the same mediocre game in the largest genera of games, why?

I wonder why they have even moved to consoles, making games for the ungrateful, cheap little bastards that use them, who are overly critical and otherwise ignorant jerks.

Useful comment, so you agree that his games are just unnecessary additions to one of the most bloated and abused generas in current gaming? Or can you prove to me that his games actual have made ANY significant progression since unreal?

Shut up, you can't talk. Are you saying that Mario isn't played out? Mario is old as s**t, games numbering in the dozens, yet you critisise a great game like Gears of War for being repeditive? I'll cut you some slack because I know you are regreting your wii in this age of awesome 360 goodness.
Do us all a favour and grow a pair.

Yeah. If you can't see that, then you're blind. Almost every Unreal (as well as UT) has had a relatively large change between them. Gears of War is a major change from the usual, especially considering there aren't too many 3rd person action shooters.
But really, Epic isn't trying to "change" anything or make anything particularly new, and they know that- what they're trying to do is make something that is fun, and it doesn't have to be new to be fun.

How about some real questions:
- Can we be assured the melee system (including stuns) will be improved? How :) ?
- With all the new awesome upgrades to the U3 engine (new shaders that allow many characters, destructible environments, soft body physics), can you give us just a little tiny hint at any new gameplay elements that could be introduced into multiplayer?
- Taking into consideration that assassination was the least popular multiplayer mode, will there be modifications to the default layout to balance the spread of games more evenly?
- Coinsiding with the previous question, can we please have matchmaking for RANKED matches only, for fair tournament style games?
- Please please please put in dedicated host!!

Why do you have such an over-inflated sense of self-worth?

Alright, here it goes. I sure hope you guys choose my question:
It's been a while since GoW came out so it's no shock that several other games have made an impact on the industry and the medium. Most notably, Grand Theft Auto IV is sending shock waves across the gaming community and looks like it could end up being the revolutionary title that everyone wants it to be. Do you find yourself looking at these games to see what they've done that maybe you can emulate or use as a springboard to improve your own games?
Also, is possible that you can cite any specific examples of features or aspects from some of the big titles out right now that you've looked at as a benchmark for Gears of War 2?

I for one would love an open world gears game where you have the option of jacking other COG soldiers vehicles and curb stomp them (why not?)

Any chance that we'll see bots in multiplayer? Sometimes a custom game with a few friends vs. AI is extremely fun

Well, I guess if your last name was as nerdy sounding as Bleszinski, you'd make up a nickname too. LOL. I can see it now, like a scene from Malibu's Most Wanted.
*Grandma walks in.* "Oh, how are you, my little Clifford Bleszinski"
*He slaps her in the face and pushes her down* "Ay, I told you already, it's Cliffy B-Rad, get it right before I pop a cap in yo ass."

This is a serious question, why don't you ever try to expand on the FPS genre. The genre itself is very tired and overused. Various modifications have improved it over the years, (real 3d, jumping, portals, etc. etc.), but there hasn't been much since halo. Everyone just seems to just try to make quality generic shooters. Unreal is such a powerful engine. Why can't we have that next big step in the genre?

Your question would be valid if it wasn't stupid. Do you know what FPS stands for?
First person shooter.
Is that what Gears of War is? No, it is a Third Person Shooter. With that, they did innovate, along with a cover system that was actually intuitive.
