yeah it is all over the place.
i guess they see it as more posts and page hits because instead of going to 1 page a lot of us are going to 3 or more pages with advertising on them.
i dont see this stopping anytime soon if its an additional source of revenue.

late 2010 will be epic also thanks to cliff b.... lol..
well at least we will hear how epic it will be...

you should pick them up...
1 and 2 can be found for $ 10 each sometimes at stores on sale and 2 is a 2 disc package.
i have been playing # 2 its hard, the graphics are great for ps2.

yeah i guess its better that way to complete things...
even withouth gow3, 2009 is looking great.

damn... lookin good..
2009 may be better than 2008 and 2007 for game releases..
were lucky.

i know its just a demo so far to us but i dont know if the graphics are better than mgs4 or gears2... well see from the real game though.
i have similar complaints about the controls.. i know you always have to get used to new controls and such but there is also a lag involved with moving and aiming at different enemies. i even turned up the sensitivity and that didnt help much and it was not very accurate. if the online MP gameplay has this same game control physic i dont think i will be playing much of it online because i also prefer a better aiming and control scheme like the cod series.
its not just about the button layout, which is poor also IMO and should allow for a complete change of buttons to suite the gamers needs.
the cover system is cool and works great for a FPS game, which i was skeptical about..
all in all the game was fun, but i might be playing cod online more.

background downloads are good and also the option where downloads happen after i turn off my console and the console shuts down after all downloads..

i agree, but i also noticed that since the NXE update, 360 downloads are much slower now and streams stop and load many times now.
that never happened to me on inside xbox before and now i cant watch 1 of those videos without the stream stopping and loading 1 or 2 times.
they are getting to be very similar now IMO, and psn is free.

trev-
since when did the ps3 allow us to download a file and install a file at the same time??
most to all of ps3 installs are not background allowed, thus any background downloading stops at that moment, i think....

so u do have to take install times into account. as the install takes some time in itself.
if i download megaman 9 on xbox live and psn i would be playing it faster on the xbox live service, mainly due to the loss of install time.

if its possible i did not know this....
fill me in if im wrong people....

gears 2 campaign was a joke IMO.
for 2 years all we heard from cliff at epic was how greatly they were going to improve on gears 2.
well i saw better graphics and a horde mode, thats about it.

the MP was broken, failed, and dropped on the xbox live charts fast.
the campaign was a joke... the platforming missions felt like they were put in only to add time to the gameplay.. they were out of place and not gears related.

anytime something had to be done or found in gears 2 i was told within a few seconds what to do, instead of giving it time, making the campaign very easy and fast.

the boss battles were very easy and not as hard as in gears 1.
the only reason the story was better in gears 2 is because they left it open to go into gears 3 story.

i honestly expected more from epic and cliff within 2 years and they delivered on the 1 part of the game cliff talked about the most, horde...

horde mode rocked. i had much fun playing with my girlfriend, her dad, and her sister... co-op bot modes are really fun and should come into play in more games....
