Shacknews has an in-depth look at what we can expect when Gears of War 2 is released. Is it more of the same, or will it be a whole new ballgame? Epic's Cliff Bleszinski also takes the time to share some of the finer points of using enemies as mobile cover and the art of the chainsaw duels.
The chainsaw dueling mechanic is similar in practice to a Jedi Knight lightsaber lock, with the player simply mashing the "B" button to overcome the foe. Bleszinski also told us that unlike the build seen in the trailer, you can now do a reverse chainsaw, slicing an enemy upward "between his legs, and up through his taint.That might be one of the better quotes we've had at CS-Nation. Gears 2 will feature much improved enemy AI, more scripted sequences, and all of the graphical improvements made to the UE3 since the first Gears was released.
