Gears of War 2 is the game that has been at the back of my mind in terms of games coming out before the end of Q4 2008. I loved the first game but have yet to feel the excitement for the sequel. For the most part, every video I have seen has included the games lead designer, Cliffy B narrating the game in a real cocky and annoying manner which really causes the excitement to fizzle for me. Luckily, I stumbled across a new video in which Cliffy discusses many of the games new feature and potentially interesting new multiplayer modes... without sounding like a jerk. From an industry standpoint, I respect what Cliffy does because he really puts hard work into his games. From a gamer standpoint, he annoys the hell out of me by being overly dramatic and trying to sell his graphics engine that i have dubbed "the virus" (Unreal Engine III) to every developer to cross his path. In this new video however, he discusses his new game in a very insightful way... Keep it up Cliffy.

Man, Gears is one of the very few exclusive games that are tempting me to shell out for a 360. That interview with Cliffy did reveal a lot of sweet new features and info, even if they are minor. And all of that with an absolute minimal of dickheadedness™.
Thanks for the video Nick.
Definitely going to be worth buying! 12 maps coming out for it...and still a few more games modes to reveal.
