Get Teased By Gears of War 2
First Gears 2 trailer inside
21 Feb 2008
"Sometimes, death is all you can see..."
You read that with a gritty Hollywood voice-over lilt, right? No? Go back and read it again. Got it? Good. Nothing like a bit of gravelly death in the morning to get the juices flowing and bait anti-gaming crusader Jack Thompson.
Yup, the sound of a voice like mountains rubbing together, a dash of Sin City-style animation, a spot of ultra-violence and you've got the perfect way to kick off the marketing campaign for what's sure to be one of the biggest games of the year, Gears of War 2.
You can see it for yourself below. You might want to check out the first snippets of artwork and place-holder packshots while you're down there, too.

The video follows the game's developer, Epic Games, announcing at Microsoft's Game Developers Conference keynote that Gears 2 will be released in November.

Even though the trailer has no ingame stuff whatsoever I have to say I thought it was probably one of the best trailers I have ever seen...Because its different.
I hope this time it has more on the story about the Locusts and what going on.
This game will no doubt look even better than UT3 then once its out, would be good to compare Gears 1 to number 2 visually.
I noticed that the blood that comes down from the Gears logo has now 2 lines of blood...Very clever just like Marcus having fire behind him like the wings of a Phoenix ;-)
There will be a gears of war 3 and that will have 3 lines of blood coming down from the logo I reckon.
