Confirmed: Gears of War 2 is for real and it’s coming soon

by Mike on February 22nd, 2008

Look what I stumbled into today. Yes, that’s right. It’s the trailer for Gears of War 2. Good old Marcus is back, straight from the Game Developers Conference.

Cliffy B. then shows up after the trailer was shown to confirm that the rumors of a sequel are indeed true. The most surprising part? The game is coming out this November. As expected, Gears of War 2 is an Xbox 360 exclusive. Yeah, expect a terrible PC port a year after.

This news bodes well for the legions of Xbox 360 owners who’ve been pining for a big 2008 release. If you think Halo Wars alone is going to save the Microsoft console from coming out third in the race, think again. The caliber of a Gears of War sequel would definitely help the 360’s rather slim 2008 lineup.

Question is: Would Gears 2 be enough to keep the 360 ahead of the PS3?
