The worst Sequal ever was Duke Nukem Forever, if you'd even call it that
And Gears 3 is hyped plenty....
What's your opinion? RedRiver122My opinion is that Gears 2 was a great game and that all of your points are wrong.
Off game spot it's not getting the praise it deserves, at all... Especially for what Epic has managed to do, they've more then redeemed my faith in the franchise. And after Gears 2, I thought I would laugh at buying the next. Though I agree, D.N.F was terrible. But not by the same developers.The worst Sequal ever was Duke Nukem Forever, if you'd even call it that

[QUOTE="RedRiver122"]What's your opinion? nethernovaMy opinion is that Gears 2 was a great game and that all of your points are wrong. So it didn't dumb down the story with Maria? Seriously, I want Dom to die. The slow movement and over all, the graphics weren't polished at all. I've seen floating objects.
Gears 3 will redeem Epic. Gears 1 was great, 2 had a better campaign, but the multiplayer was horrible because of connection issues, two piecing, and the fact that each update would fix one thing and break a million others. But the Gears 3 beta was amazing, fixed every issue Gears 2 had, and improved upon the game tenfold, and I now find it almost impossible to play a game without dedicated servers now, all game should have them or not bother with online multiplayer.spike6958Epic is probably going to pull a 10 out of there pocket or the fabled AAAAE. It's possible, seeing even the minor issues the beta had they all fixed.
Regardless of bugs (Props to Epic for managing to make this type of game in a year), Gears of war 1 had fantastic game play, graphics and story. Gears of war 2 desecrated this with a dumb story, slowed down the game play so it seems you got a bolder on your back and the graphics over all weren't exactly the best. And it still had bugs, even if it did have a small amount of development time over its previous game. Epic made just a couple changes and made one of the best AAAE games one of the worst, if not the worst. Now Gears of war 3 has a lot on its shoulders, though I think the beta (which was pure epic) redeemed Epic a bit. What's your opinion? RedRiver122
sigh.....really can you troll somewhere else please.

Seriously, I can show you proof I own the game.

I stated Gears 1 was superior, I didn't state Uncharted was "teh best gamez evar".First you say "Gears of war 1 had fantastic gameplay, graphics and story" then you fail and say Gears 2 desecrated this with a dumb story (which was better than the first and more developed and yet somehow its dumb) and then say the graphics werent the best when Gears 2 looks better than gears 1 by a big difference. yeah sure your not trolling. Im sorry troll no one here will pay your toll.

"(which was better than the first and more developed and yet somehow its dumb)" Actually, Gears of war 1 had a fantastic atmosphere and back story. It didn't take itself seriously but nor did it make a joke out of its self. It was the ideal story for Epic. But they went along and ruined it all with Gears of failure 2. Dom' searching for his wife was so forced I felt like shooting myself instead when finally finding her. And the graphics aren't near as polished as the leap from Gears 2 - 3. Seriously, the textures aren't near as good as they should be in Gears 2 compared to what they could have been.Gears 2 was an awesome game. Even if we we're still living in the month before the multiplayer fix, it was still an amazing game.
Edit: ...Dumb down the story?
LoL @ calling Gears2 worst sequel ever
There are so many other sequels that were actually made games and a slap in teh face to previous games in the series.
I had good fun with Gears2, the campaign was better then the first imo and the new Horde mode was fantastic, only bad thing was the server issues imo, which made the online not as good as gears1.
Gears 2 wasn't as good as the first. I didn't like the campaign as much, didn't touch the multiplayer, but I loved Horde mode. It was still awesome.
The worst sequel ever actually doesn't exist :P That's how bad it was.

You really had to make a new accout for this? REALLY?
Ok I guess I'll put on "another one bites the dust" as I explain things to you.
Gears 2 did have some messed up online, yes. But the overall game was still pretty enjoyable to it's fans. Personally I think Gears is OK, I'm not a huge fan of it but it's definately a good game overall. And Gears 3 is getting dedicated servers which will fix the online issues of the game, and the beta seemed to be pretty smooth too. Yes it was a little glitchy and buggy but guess what? That's because it was a BETA, it's basically a DEMO. The game will be fine.
Gears 3 has alot of hype and I'm sure it will make it's fans happy.
What are you talking about, I never said it was glitch' or buggy. It's the most polished beta I've ever played, more polished then most complete games.*sigh*

No, just no. Gears of war 1 was a classic. Gears of war 2 was average.I honestly liked Gears 2 just as much as the first one and I'm definitely hyped a bit for Gears 3.
travisstaggs
seriously gamespot, what is with all these lvl 1 making gears of war 3 threads, its getting completely out of hand. Every day gears of war 3 lvl 1 threads by different brand new users, claiming the game isn't hyped enough. Its the same thing, over and over and over againDiviniuz
I noticed all this too, pretty strange.
Wanna know my opinion?
Gears 2 is an awesome sequel and overall game.
This thread may be the worst thread ever.
i doubt many people thought gears 2 was that bad, saying the sp inG1is better is crazy imo
G3 is my mostanticipated game right now
This thread is pretty trolly but I'll post anyway cuz a lot of people do seem to think Gears 2 was worse than the first, which imo is an absolutely crazy viewpoint. I thought Gears 2 was better in just about every way....gameplay its pretty much the same (aka excellent) so I don't see a problem there. Graphically there are much larger scale fights in Gears 2, and I've never encountered a large number of bugs playing it. And story? It's been pretty weak from the start, which doesn't bother me too much as long as I get to shoot things in my shooters.
edit: Talking about sp here, I didn't like Gears 1 or 2 mp, not my style. Horde mode is an absolute blast though.
I agree that the story in Gears 2 was absolutely terrible (the first games story wasn't good either but it wasn't a train wreck)
However there are worse sequels: Duke Nukem forever, Masters of orion 3, Deus ex 2 (good game but so much worse than the original)
Basically same core gameplay in all 3 games, very little improvements a jump button would of changed gameplay alot in sequel.hgjhgdfgbfdgfdskillzone1=no jump button like gears of war. killzone2=added a jump button changed gameplay alot improved it. hmmm? looks like epicgames is afraid of change and gaming community.

Just based on the type of gameplay of Gears of War, a jump button would add nothing but "bunny hoppers" to multiplayer. Try again.
