there have been rumors of a super huge perfect dark game on 360 in 2008 or 2009,

but the sure fire hit would be gears 2. this game could counterbalance Metal gear somewhat, and the 360 needs it next year.

so my questions are: is cliffy B's gears team part of the UT3 team? and if not, and since gears PC was developed by a different studio owned by epic, is gears already in development and on the 2008 slate?

I doubt Gears 2 will make it next year. I'm guessing 2009 or later.

wasnt gears in production for only 2 years? it will be two years in 2008, and the engine is running and the foundation is laid out, just like all sequels

They "started" the UT3 version for 360 a long time ago. Some XBOX magazine did a preview months and months ago and it looked like it was doing pretty good. Some gaming site even had a video posted of the 360 running and playing it with the controllers but I can't find it anymore.

But even then...you would expect to hear something about Gears 2 by now...I would not be surprised if they announced it at E3 as a 2009 title...unless they show it at GDC or something like that and announce it for fall 2008

I wouldn't count on it landing in 2008.

And by the way, yeah I'm pretty sure Cliffy B's team didn't work on UT3.

From what I know, during GDC or E307, Epic announced that there will be a sequal.

**edit**Here's some confirmation

Gears was in production for either 4 or 5 years.

there have been rumors of a super huge perfect dark game on 360 in 2008 or 2009,

but the sure fire hit would be gears 2. this game could counterbalance Metal gear somewhat, and the 360 needs it next year.

so my questions are: is cliffy B's gears team part of the UT3 team? and if not, and since gears PC was developed by a different studio owned by epic, is gears already in development and on the 2008 slate?

Awinagainov

Yeah, the characters look very similar

No, its because they're working onmod content.

Anyways, I hope Gears2comes in 09 so it has plenty of time to improve in all ways. It was a good game, but it could do a lot better

in an interview on gametrailers, mark rein just laughed and avoided the question when asked if gears would be in 2008. you'd think that if it would be in 09 for sure then he'd say no

You're grasping for straws now. Let's wait till Epic decides to announce it next year.

OK lots ofuninformedpeople in the thread, so let me clarify some things:

1. Gears of War took 2 years and a 10 million budget to make. Don't get it confused with UT 3.0 Engine development. http://www.gamewad.com/development-costs-for-gears-of-war-reach-only-10-million-1884-p.html

2.UT 3 is already up and running on 360. You guys are getting confused by a statement Mark Rein made about the title "not started yet."in an interview withCVGonline. He cleared up his remarks by claiming its already running, just postponed until 08.
