Bots?! Woot!

Btw, it really sounds like Epic is developing an epic sequal. If SP is 12 hours on a challenging difficulty (not easy/normal, but not psycho) and isn't repetitive and has a solid story and they pack in another great MP package it sounds like they have sealed their position as one this gens flagship title to date. Can we say best new killer IP this generation?

Lets hope they live up to that hype... personally I really like how they have addressed the evolution of the series. This isn't a simple sequal but a really evolved and fleshed out game.

Now, do you think MS will buy Epic according to those rumors awhile back? Now that Shane Kim is no longer the head of MGS, I think thats a possibility.

I agree i think allot of people overlook just how much Epic is enhancing gow2 (and is not just the same old same old, as people treid to state!), and its not just tweaking and adding additions to the game, for adding additions sake like allot of sequals out there, but each tweak and addition has enhanced and tightend up gameplay, to make what was a great and highly acclaimed game hopefully even better, and with "oohdals" more additions to be annouced as cliffy stated, i say bring it...

The SD version of the episode isn't working, nor is the HD. Brilliant.

It's a pretty good episode, I just watched it.. lots of Gears 2 talk, and good looking games all around. Worth the download.

Well the SD version's working now, but cheers anyway Grift.

Pretty impressive episode, not just because of Gears 2 either. The new map looks very good - reminds me of 'Raven Down', except the Seeder has replaced the Raven (obviously). I'm confident that the story in the single player campaign will be really something, simply because I have the upmost faith in what Epic are saying.

On a side note, so looking forward to Fallout 3 and Dragon Age: Origin after those two teasers.

And some people believe this game is no longer a graphical showpiece? Utter rubbish.

That multiplayer footage blew me away. I can't believe how incredibly well they've made this game, and I honestly can't fault it.

It had such a cinematic feel to it.

Framerate looked pretty bad in the river flyover video, could have just been the video though.

Probably the video as the maps played so far by the gaming press have been smooth as butter..

About that Gridlock comparison video. I think the first Gears has better looking version of the map. I just don't like how much HDR/Bloom there is used. Overly used the effect almost always gives me headache :/

The other MP video looked better. Reload + shit yeah comment is always fun. Of course the new gameplay additions looked fun too.

It's been a few hours since we first saw it, and yet I still can't get over how mindblowing the campaign footage was.

I was completely blown away, and I already know this will be my GOTY by quite some distance.

Is it just me, or does the SP look a ton better than MP? Some of the MP shots look pretty poor to be quite honest. The SP gameplay footage Blium has up is absolutely amazing. At first I thought it had to be a cut scene, the draw distance and activity is excellent.

No not just you, I have noticed the same too. the SP is looking ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! and it seems the graphical gap between the SP and MP is wider this time around but it's no big deal to me. MP is fun and that's what makes or breaks the game.

Not just you.

When I watched this video first time I thought it doesn't look that good.

Then watched the SP video and was impressed.
