Xbox 360 Gears of War 2: Unreal Engine 3 on-stage demonstration

Gears of War 2 is shaping up to be a superb game, and one of the major factors that will help the game become so great is the use of the new Unreal Engine 3. For those of you, who have not seen how good this piece of software is, then check out this on-stage demonstration video that was taken at GDC 2008.

There are a number of improvements on the Unreal Engine 3; one is the improved water physics. It seems as if the character is now able to affect his surrounds. If you shoot at wall it will blow apart as if you were really shooting at them.

Gears of War 2 gameplay and new trailer for Xbox 360

Today the gaming world gets to see a closer look at Gears of War 2 with some gameplay and other trailer features, when I owned an Xbox 360, the best game I found was Gears of Wars and after watching the video (see below this post) for the sequel, this looks to be the best game of 2008 for the Xbox 360. Its a shame this game will never be on the Sony PS3, the fast paced action and the way you move is fantastic and just what makes Gears of War 2 special.

In the GoW2 gameplay below you can see that the Locust’s are back and they are meaner than ever, they brought with them a force that can sink entire cities. Humanity has its back against the wall, in this debut gameplay trailer you get to see action from the level “The Salt”. I love the way you can grab a body for protection and then snap their neck, very cool if you like that sort of thing. Gears of War 2 will be released on November 30, 2008 and below we have three game trailers for you, the first shows brand new features abound as the Cogs take up the battle with the Locust once again.

The second trailer gives you every dirty detail revealed, it shows that the new lightning technique in Gears of War 2 is really paying off. The game features more details and clarity thanks to more contrast; the Marcus’s player model has also been improved with much better details on the face.

The third trailer shows a graphics comparison of the first Gears of War game, compared to the second. I will let you decide here, the graphics have improved a little and it’s very impressive that the game runs smooth with so much going on.

First Halo 3 vs COD4, now Resistance 2 (Sony PS3) vs Gears of War 2 on Xbox 360

After playing games like Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4, the next game in their class has to equal them and be much more. On the upcoming games, we want features that are both different and unique, the good news is 2008 may be bringing just that. Last year it was COD4 vs Halo 3, but in 2008 we will see the Sony PS3’s Resistance 2 up against Gears of War 2 on the Xbox 360.

You can see a new video below explaining the features in Resistance 2 and some gameplay, this game will not only feature 60 players on one map, but it will also have battles within battles. They are taking the gameplay we love so much and adding some unique features, and that’s just why this game has not been released yet. Insomniac will make sure everything is right before they release Resistance 2 and looking at the video below, you can see it looking good.

While Gears of War 2 will look stunning, it does not seem to have added much from the last version, well not compared to Resistance 2 anyway and if these two are the big games of 2008, you need to give a lot more. The first Resistance game was not good enough in my opinion, I played it for a few hours but found it lacked what other games had. This sequel makes up for that in many ways and it looks like a lot more has gone into it. Gears of War 2 will have the better graphics by a long way, but if your talking gameplay, my money is on Resistance 2, but that’s if they can pull it off with the 60 player online play.

The biggest problem with some of the PSN games currently is hosting a game, on Call of Duty 4 you get many games starting and then saying “Host Ended Game”. This is very annoying and what should have happened, is the host role should have been passed to another player. If that situation happens again with Resistance 2 and 60 player online gaming, it will be a big fault.

Two other big upcoming games include killzone 2 and mgs4, but these are Playstation 3 exclusives. Watch the video below and let us know what you think of Resistance 2.
