Gears of War
November 12, 2006
Mark that day on your calender, folks. It will be known as Emergence Day from now on. Of course, it's no coincidence that it's being released a mere 5 days from the launch of the Playstation 3. Just goes to show how brutal this generation's "Console Wars" are going to be. Here's hoping that a demo is released soon enough, as I'm sure Microsoft and Epic both want this game to get as much exposure as possible, and what better way than to give gamers a taste with a demo, only to leave them salivating for more when Emergence Day arrives? Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I'm sorry to say that Cliffy B. himself said that the demo wasn't coming out until after the game's release, if at all.
No I don't have a source to confirm this so question it if you like for time and factual truth will stand to be my witnesses. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Well, if time and factual truth are your alibies, then I guess I'll just have to accept it :biggrin:
If not the demo, than at least release the E3 playable walkthrough that Cliffy showed in the Marketplace so we can watch it in 720p. A good alternative, no? This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Watch this become the next Halo even though Halo wasn't anticipated at all. I can't see how Sony can do any good with the games coming out for 360 around Christmas and the ideal 360 price. Oh and it could be tough to play this game with Splinter Cell Double Agent coming out in October. Guaranteed AAA title that will be hella addicting.

True, but the PS3 is only $50 more for the standard which has everything, and more then the premium 360 has. Also Sony has a much larger following then either of the other two.
But hey, I learned a long time ago that you can never really predict what's going to happen before it does, so I just leave it at that each console has it's strengths and weaknesses and we won't know who "won" until it's all over anyway. How ya doing, buddy? |
I'm a huge fan of Epic shooters, and can't wait for this one to come out. It's too bad that we won't be getting a demo of any sort (as they even had a multiplayer demo at E3), but I'd definitely rather have an earlier release rather than a demo and a year 2007 release.
Concerning the PS3, they still got the mysterious Killzone up their sleeve... Resistance isn't impressive in the least however. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Well non of the stuff for the 360 looked all that great at the E3 before it's release either. But that's because it still had 6 months before release, which is when the real magic happens for a game. Therefore the things we saw for the PS3, while some might not have been as impressive as others, they still had like 6 months before release, so it's not a good source to judge based upon. (and this is the key reason why E3 has now been moved to July to show off later and more complete builds of games.
Heck if you compare the E3 trailer for Tekken 5 to the final build of Tekken 5 there is a MASSIVE difference, so it really does make a huge difference. FELIPE NO |
Let's not forget that MS' got a new bundle coming out next I think which is a Premium 360 with PGR3, 3 months of XBOX LIVE and 1250 MS Points for the original price of a Premium Pack. Now that's good!
As for GEARS, it's one the title I'm craving and one that will definitely set a standard for Action-Adventure titles. How ya doing, buddy? |

Yeah, a few months, especially when switching from a Beta Dev Kit to a Final Dev Kit can do wonders, just take a look at how DEAD RISING evolved visually in a couple of months.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Im have been on the waiting list for this game for about a month now. Im liking the chainsaw at the end of your gun!:lolsign:

Pricing info was also released for Gears of Wars. $59.99 for standard and $69.99 for deluxe. I have no info on what the differences are between the two.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Deluxe has an art book and a making of DVD for it.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
Judging by the hype, the pictures, the videos, and whatnot..this could be one of the killer apps the 360 needs.
I'll be sure as hell to keep an eye on this baby. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I can't wait for this game for 360, along with a few other titles (Rainbow Six Vegas, Splinter Cell Double Agent, and Call of Duty 3)
FELIPE NO |
I don't know if we're going to make this the official/unofficial thread for this game, but I'm going to try and keep this place up to date on this game.
GameTrailers.com now has a 3 part SD & HD gameplay demonstration on the functions, features and all around impressive demonstraion of this game that is TOTALLY worth checking out. Even if you're only slightly interested in this game. Part I SD: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...13652&type=wmv HD: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...13656&type=wmv Part II SD: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...13654&type=wmv HD: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...13655&type=wmv Part III SD: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...13656&type=wmv HD: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...13657&type=wmv What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Goddamn! This looks pretty goddamned impressive.
I hope Microsoft is smart enough to advertise the hell out of this one, because this game is a real system-seller from the looks of things. How ya doing, buddy? |
I heard something yesterday about this one being leaked onto newsgroups. Any clarification of whether it's real or not?
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Check it out, it's real. I don't think that it's possible for it not to be.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Good Chocobo |
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Doesn't really matter though for you need a modded 360 to play it. And if you do somehow have a modded 360 you definatly won't be able to play it online which is just as amazing as the offline portion. In the end it would only be "you" who misses out... not anyone else.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
But for some who don't have the intraweb, it's pretty cool.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
The leak proably wont hurt enough to matter based on what you have to do to play it.
Unless your like tube and have 4 xboxs lying around. FELIPE NO |

Im probably going to play this online before I touch the single player. Sounds backwards, but this game is just screaming for some online blood baths. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
