From 1UP's LiveBlog:
2:45pm SHANE: Cliffy B takes the stage to show off Gears of War 2! Man, how many subwoofers are in this room? Is this running at 60 frames per second? Holy shit, look at all that juice!
GARNETT: So, here's the scoop; that little section of singleplayer you've seen, Cliffy's playing the whole damn thing for us. Starts out on rig 314, that's one of these derrick things that burrow your team into the planet's core to fight the locust on their own turf. There's a catch (natch) that these things have to be positioned in specific places before they start drilling.
We're on the ride out to one such location now. Reminds me a lot of the train sequence at the end of the first game. Started off with just some bombardment and flying enemies but it's all gone to hell now with locust coming from every direction. They even hijacked one one of the other rigs and are trying to run us off the road. One thing that really stands out to me about the gunfire is this excellent tracer effect; it's particularly noticeable on the machine guns. The tracers blur and smear as they spray out of the gun. Helps a ton in being able to see the spread of your fire. Oh, and bloody hell, this ride has now seen us face pretty much every big bad
SHANE: OK, I just asked Cliffy whether or not this will run at 60 fps. No dice, but he promises that it will stay above 30 throughout. Also, Cliff had to be a bit of a dick by repeating my question as, "When is Gears 2 coming out for the PS3?" Funny, real funny.
