E3 2008: Gears of War 2 Dated

15 Jul, 2008, 1:30 am IST | by Avinash Bali |

At Microsoft’s Press Conference today, Epic’s Cliff Bleszinski AKA Cliffy B blew the crowd away with explosive testosterone filled footage of Gears of War 2. While the game’s frame rate seemed to be a bit iffy, I was bowled over by the sheer scope and magnitude of the game that by the way did look like a Call of Duty game from time to time.


Before he left the stage he was kind enough to inform us that Gears of War 2 would be released on the 7th of November 2008 exclusively for the Xbox360. Also mentioned were two new game mechanics (that were unfortunately not shown due to time restraints); Horde, a 5 player co-op mode where you and your friends faced off against tons of locusts a la Serious Sam and Riding a Brumak that’s pretty self explanatory.
