I never got personal. You on the other hand decided to do just that. So if anyone is spewing negativity it is you sir ... and don't worry I am done on this thread as well and really have nothing more to say to you on any thread. I'm off as well.

Your opinions are fine, but they're polarized and unnecessarily negative. Gears is a great game and I've been addicted to it for a month now....and I've been an avid gamer for almost 30 years. Gears has me excited....nothing else does right now. You can hang out...I'm off. The opinions here are clearly not in line with mine. aww….for someone who spews such negativity…it must be difficult for you to find a warm welcome.

Obviously we have a very different one, you need to respect it and not tell anyone to "suck it down". I'm starting to lose patience with this place and its lack of respect for other people's opinions, as well as other things. Perhaps I haven't found a new home afterall.

Anuban is right. Gears got the pass by it's mesmorizing graphics and marketing. I mean there were so many launch parties of this game and Emergence Day was a big marketing scheme. Microsoft paid a lot of money 2 market this thing even more than Halo 2. I mean Gears is being treated like it's a new bully and if you say anything bad about it, it's gonna hurt ya. Snap out of the graphics and the silly hype. Let's see if this game can stay on top of the Live charts as long as Halo 2. Oh yeah! It won't because as soon as Halo 3 comes along everyone is drop Gears like a hot potatoe fresh out the oven. “If it had been any other game or company they would be getting ripped severely in the press.”

R6V is cool and all but did anyone really think it would be the game to topple Gears. I expect that pile to stay on top until next year when the real competition ships ... games like Lost Planet, Bioshock, Mass Effect, etc. But yeah until then XBL belongs to the game that has ZERO original ideas. It's really amazing how Graphics have totally eclisped everything else when it comes to this game ... you can't say that MS and Epic didn't do an extraordinary job marketing this puppy.
