    Maybe they finally realized that nobody buys multiplayer only shooters, especially when the best single player games ALSO have very good multiplayer modes.

    My guess, it is a single- and multi-player, multiplatform reboot of the Unreal series. #unrealengine

    Compared to CoD4 sales, yes. Nobody bought TF2.

    Look it up yourselft, TF2 has 10% the players of Counterstrike which outsells TF2 week after week after week. [store.steampowered.com]

    But Valve really pulled the trick of selling TF2 to the media, so it is over-represented like hell. #unrealengine

    @TeaBean: Yes it was a bundle, possibly for exactly that reason. Sure, they sell a few on the store, but not enough really.

    Counter-Strike is a bit like WoW, it is the big long term magnet. Multiplayer only competition such as UT3 or Quake Live, did not even leave a dent.

    Especially with titles such as CoD4 or Halo3 around, there is no incentive to buy a multiplayer only game. You'd just get less. #unrealengine

    UT3 was a joke. They released a beta, never patched the beta, and pissed on the community by releasing said beta as a final product. First impressions killed it and patches that took months to put together didn't save it.

    I wanted Unreal Tournament 3, not Gears of War: UT Edition Beta Remix +++.

    If this IS a new UT, they better do a better damn job of putting it together, add some freakin color, and keep their console and PC versions (if there is a console version) SEPARATE! No more half assed releases! #unrealengine

    I always thought the UT3 engine was a joke personally. I mean it's obvious when a game uses that engine. Everything is brown... gray... and looks like latex. Oh and let's not forget that all characters have ridiculously large muscles when they are put into the UT3 engine. #unrealengine

    @Techno-Atom: Yes, because if you took Sonic the Hedgehog and put him in the Unreal engine, it would give him overly gigantic muscles. Automatically.

    No, no, and no. Everything is brown, gray, and latex when developers use the engine because (and I stress this) those developers are effing lazy.

    The engine is capable of a lot more than lazy developers use it for. #unrealengine

    @elevenoverzero: Nicely said.

    While most people bitch and moan about unreal engine, in actuality its very nice to work with. It runs on all hardware (consoles, PC, etc) and its quite flexible, look at games like Mass Effect, Gears of War, Mirrors Edge, and pretty soon Natal games.

    Just because games look like Gears of War, doesnt mean its the engines fault, its developers choosing to mimic the style in order to cash in on the wave Gears started. #unrealengine

    @PsychoNun: UT2K4 was pretty good as well. It didn't capture me the way the original did, but it was still pretty solid. I can see why the slowed down gameplay would give it a wider appeal, but for me UT has always been one of those eyeball bustin' shooters, so I was pretty disappointed. #unrealengine

    Gears 2 felt like Halo 2 in that it was a clear example of a rushed imposture with the sole purpose of maximizing profit on the back of an original ip. I know a lot of people liked both sequels but in the end its what made me apathetic towards both franchises. I can't put my finger on what was missing that the original had but maybe its that indescribable je ne sais quoi that represents a game's soul.

    Gears 2 was such a letdown I eventually traded it for Red Faction: Guerilla which in hindsight was a great decision .

    Epic Games president Michael Capps claims he misspoke during a Q&A session at the Tokyo Game Show today when he said, "If there were a next Gears of War, that will be for the next console generation, whenever that is.

    "Speaking to Eurogamer after the event, Capps explained that if the next Gears of War – assuming there is one – were to be released in the next "four to five years", it would be for current consoles.

    Were it to be based on Unreal Engine 4, however, it would have to come out on the next round of consoles, because those are the machines for which Epic is targeting its next generation of money-spinning engine technology.

    With the way the economy is, if they rush out another Xbox it'll fail massively. This isn't the Xbox/GC era anymore, video game machines are multimedia devices. Blu-ray players with internet, SD slots and online stores. They need to have much longer life cycles. The cost is just too high.

    Also, if they're going to take that long, how many people will still have interest in what happens plot wise from Gears 2? Way to kill momentum.
