It's been rumoured that there would be an announcement at next months new E3 expo about Gears of War 2 but sadly that's all it turns out to be - rumour.

According to Epic Games' Mark Rein:

Quote:
We are not announcing a sequel to Gears of War at E3 this year.

Did you see the update we just did for Gears of War last week? We're still working on the first one.
I guess that leaves more 'airtime' for more Halo 3 hype :p

Im a little surprised/disappointed there wont be any Gears 2 announcement but i guess it's right that they havent stopped working on the original just yet.

A GoW2 announced would pretty much overshadow any and all other 360 announcements or news - that may have been a factor.

I didn't think Gears was that great anyway. It had good single player, but it was too short and the online sucks. (IMO)

I know it's your IMO, but you might want to consider. Most people say (including me) GoW is a great game 1P and Online. The gam was short though, you're correct there.

I just didn't find the online very fun, probably because I suck at it. People would just keep sneaking up behind me and blowing my head off or something. I would much rather play a round of Resistance or Halo 2.

Halo was better than GoW but they are both great game.

Halo 2: 8.9
GoW: 8.7

when youre comparing game review scores you should site the source, always. im assuming those are from gamespot though, since gamespot is known for giving low scores.

exactly, youve lost your right to diss gears in any way on its multiplayer, since you basically just admitted youre not good at it. once you get good at it, its a blast, you shouldve gave it a chance.

I did give it a chance, I played it for like five hours, but I only got probably three kills or something and it wasn't too fun so I just gave up.
