I can't think of anything else...
I don't know what it is... I'm not sure if I just suck at it, or if it's just horrible, but it can't be that if it's so popular... right guys?
Although I enjoyed co-op and pissing off my friends cuz I wanted to chainsaw everyone...
Gears 1 looked fantastic, but had a very limited amount of action on screen at one time. It was pretty claustrophobic.
Gears 2 will have the same level of grahpics (if not slightly better), but will open the levels up and throw in HUNDREDS of enemies on screen at once.
So to say that Gears 2 hasn't really differentiated itself from its predacessor is pretty baseless. The improvements in the Unreal Engine technology are pretty dramatic, and we haven't even seen the final product yet. It's not even due out for another 5 months for crying out loud.
Subtle differences (and lots more brown), but like Spartacus mentioned, seeing hundreds of detailed enemies on-screen at once is going to be intense.

WOW, nice "opinion" you had there. More like spam. Soooooooomebody got all pissy. My bad dude, I dont know why I even mess with idiots like you. Go on about your business and crap on everything as much as you want.
Trying to be rational with a fanatic is a lost cause that I do not intend to champion, so enjoy your victory Señor Quixote.
I kid :)
My gamertag was originally xPHOENIX KNIGHTx but everyone kept asking me if I was from Phoenix (as in teh city) which I am not ( I based it off of the bird that rises from the ashes and what not) so it got annoying. MONTHS later Gears came out, decided to change it to Fenix and guess what? No more "hey are you from Phoenix?" Easy fix. Either way calm down Boffo.
Whether it's a valid comment or not is pretty irrelevant to the responses he received. He specifically worded it to come across as a sarcastic, trollish douchebag so I'm not sure why he was surprised when he was responded to as such.

But it's incredible, and I spent hundreds of hours online with the first one, so I'm def getting this. All weapons should have chainsaws this time. Chainsaw Hammer of Dawn anyone?

Leafblower Hammer of Dawn would be pretty damn cool.

Like I said, I am certainly not complaining here... :) Only really bad fire I've seen recently has been Haze's.

It doesnt matter if its allies or enemies , theyre all the same steroid monsters with no neck , their armour the same bulky ugly mess, and the vehicles are all hopeless grey lumps.
the architecture and environments are great though, and not as grey and dreary as the first trailer indicated.
