    Default When did Gears of War start looking this good?

    http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/7...d_1687231.html

    Last I checked, the game was still a bit grainy and had a horrible frame rate. Now look at it! It's all grown up! This is what an Xbox 360 game should look like.

    Cliffy B told me the framerate would be "good" by the time Gears launched and he and the team are delivering. I saw a build back in July that really impressed me.

    If this game doesn't sell in the millions there's no justice in this world.

    You speak the truth.

    Before I posted this, I didn't see the chainsaw part.

    Please, somebody comment on the chainsaw part.

    Yeah the game looks insane, frame rate looked quite stable in that video.

    I personally always thought it looked good

    FYI, there is a 15 percent off Circuit City coupon for Gears in the latest issue of OXM at the newstands.

    You and your framerate issues

    Seriously that looks really good. November is going to be an expensive month for me.

    Way back when Gears had a high level of detail but lacked a passable framerate. Everyone knew it had to improve. He told me it'd run at at least 30FPS and he hoped to get it as high as 50FPS, yes 50!

    If the final version plays as good as it looks we're in for a treat.

    Default hmmm...

    My local EB had a gameplay video running today. Supposedly potrays actual gameplay....it looked fantastic; no real framerate issues. Played much faster than I expected as well. Wasn't as dark, and has this weird graphic for blood spatter when your shot....looked awsome though...
