Gearheads of War

It was anything but quiet last night at our weekly Friday Night Fragfest as the Gears 2 footage stole the show.  GTA4? No. Perhaps some Halo 3 No way. And don't even mention COD4...the GearHeads were all about Gears of War last night and our playtime showed it.  We had some great matches throughout the night although I can't honestly remember much of what happened as I am still processing how awesome the Gears 2 gameplay was.

There were some minor things that I didn't love about the gameplay video (Chainsaw dueling looks like cheap button mashing and the animation didn't look very good at all)but both of those could be fixed with actual play time and the further development of the game.

But seriously in the scheme of all the awesome things in the video I can't complain at all.  Locusts shields, snapping thier necks, new Chainsaw annimation, battles that aren't the size of a McDonalds playplace...

If Gears 2 lives up to that video I'm seriously wondering how GTA 4 could come close to topping it for Game of the Year.

But what did you think?
