Gears 2 breaks 6 360's at Epic

Sarcastic Gamer writes:

"Just a couple weeks from retail release (Nov 7), Gears 2 is apparently a bit more than your 360 can handle at the present time. According to what APPEARS to be Cliffy B's Twitter, "We've found the glitch. Turns out, GoW2 is so f*****g awesome it literally blows up the 360. Working on a day-one 'less awesome' patch."

The 360 can handle Gears. It is kinda funny though... But the game isn't out. It's part of testing me thinks... then again... I am not a game developer.

At the beginning of the movie, Bruce Lee slaps the young guy on the head and says, "Don't focus on the finger, or you will miss all that heavenly glory!"

So I will change that quote for the Ps3 fanboys... "Don't focus on hating the 360 so much, or you will miss all those wonderful games!"

Seriously people... All this hate for a console that to some extent has made gaming better for gamers?

You love the fact that your Ps3 has a HDD installed right? Thank MS for that. Cause that idea came when they did it with the first Xbox, while Sony was content with having you buy multiple 8 Mb memory cards for $30-$40 each!

You have free online play, while XBL charges a fee? That's because XBL has established itself as the best. And sony has to allow their service to be free in order for it to catch on, because they have to catch up to XBL. They see that free is not the answer to all, which is why you have HOME coming soon.

Sony didn't like the fact that the Ps2 was weaker than the Xbox and especially the Gamecube, so they made the Ps3 the most powerful!

You hate the MS so much, but you should acknowledge that having them in the gaming industry has made things better for you! You keep rubbing all the great things about the Ps3 in 360 owners faces not knowing MS and the Xbox brand are the reasons your Ps3 are so great!

I hope you learned something today... Now go back to being fanboys, I need more to laugh at!

LOL I wish (more to do with work then this article), but this is ripped from a twitter post that was submitted here earlier and failed. Supposedly this is Cliffy B's twitter page http://twitter.com/cliffy_b... Make your own mind up on that, I know I have.

Ranking The Gears Of War Games From Worst To Best

The Gears of War series has been a consistent deliverer of quality for Xbox, but which games are the best?

Gears of War is my favorite video game franchise, and the Locust is my all-time favorite faction.

My rank list:
1. Gears of War 2
2. Gears of War 3
3. Gears of War 1
4. Gears of War 4
5. Gears of War 5
6. Gears of War Judgment (No Locust in multiplayer was a disgrace)

ChasterMies713d ago

Agree 100% with this ranking. The campaign in Gears of War 2 is among the most fun campaigns ever made. It’s been downhill from there.

Zombieburger638713d ago

I’d say gears 2 and 3 are pretty even. I absolutely loved both of them.

darthv72713d ago

2 is still my favorite but 5 is also up there (for me). Then I'd say 1, 3, 4 and Judgement. Tactics isnt the same type of game, so it seems odd to rank it among TPS when its a strategy game. So I make that one all its own. Pretty fun game too.

Jericho1337713d ago

The first is and has always been the best one imo - the story, the levels, the set pieces, the soundtrack - as close to perfect as a campaign can get.

I’d say the series had been on a continual downhill slide until 5.

Om4ever713d ago

Naaaan ... 2 is the best by far

MadLad713d ago

3
5
2
1
4
Judgement

I love the series as a whole, but 4 was pretty by the numbers, and Judgement was just ok.

LoveSpuds713d ago

I played them all since picking up a Series X about 7 months ago. Personally, I don't think time has been kind to the earlier games and they feel very slow and repetitive to play. Whilst the newer games may be prettier, they stick with the original gameplay mechanics too much in my view so as a whole series of titles, I think they are pretty average games.

Not to say they weren't fun and I have a lot of nostalgia for 1 and 2, I just think there are far better action games out there.

It's brilliant but personally liked part one more. It's the only one that had a near horror movie vibe to it in parts, the atmosphere was amazing.

Also, the commercial for it was 🔥🔥🔥

Neonridr847d ago

Mad World was such a perfect song for that trailer. I loved part 1 too just because it was so fresh at the time. The series has been solid, but experiencing everything for the first time was pretty awesome.

ChasterMies846d ago

Gears of War 2 has one of the greatest campaigns of all time. Carmine, all that juice, fighting inside a giant worm, and riding monsters.

Knightofelemia848d ago

Gears 1 and 2 will always be my favorite Gears titles. The scene where Dom find his wife and then has to shoot her was an epic scene.

monkey602847d ago

I always found that scene laughably bad myself. Fantastic game though.

1 will always be my favourite. Most were great with the exception of 4 being okay and judgement being terrible.

They still have the most satisfying headshots from any multiplayer game around.

lucian229847d ago

Nah I laughed, the acting was soooooooooo bad

KicksnSnares848d ago

My favorite Gears game list
1. Gears 2
2. Gears 3
3. Gears 1
4. Gears 4
5. Gears 5
6. Gears Judgement

Gears Of War is my favorite video game franchise. I can’t imagine how Gears 6 will look in UE5 after watching Hellblade 2 gameplay trailer

RetroCaptainSteve847d ago

Or if they remake 2 and 3 with that engine.

KicksnSnares847d ago

There is a rumored Marcus Fenix collection (Gears 2 & 3 remake) in the works at the Coalition. Hopefully, it’s true, but I doubt it.

Profchaos847d ago

For me you can't beat gears 1 the original was so fresh and revolutionary at the time.
Then basically I'd rank it 2,3,5,4 and judgement

Viljong847d ago (Edited 847d ago )

One of the reasons why i got the series x. Been fan since the first game.

myfathersbastard847d ago

Played them all recently on gamepass. Great games. But my favorites gotta be gears tactics. Don’t know why. I just had a blast with it lol

6. Gears Judgement

Atom6661189d ago

This is the correct answer.

nibblo1189d ago (Edited 1189d ago )

Close to my rankings but some differences. My rankings:

1. Gears 3
2. Gears 5
3. Gears 4
4. Judgement
5. Gears 2
6. Gears 1

People will hate on me putting Gears 2 so low but I always felt the graphics were too busy to the point of confusion and the combat/movement hadn't really improved over 1. Lot of cool ideas but execution wasn't the best as far as I'm concerned.
