We snagged this X06 video of Gears of War gameplay for your enjoyment. Filled with lots of gunfire, blood, and apparently ineffective grenades, it's sure to delight both young and old. Emergence Day is getting closer and closer, folks. See the video after the break. (Fanboy Trivia:CliffyB is behind the controls of this demo.)

I love how it feels like a live embedded journalist
kinda like the shaky camish effect
funny that the "Halo Killer" is coming out on the same system as Halo

The grenades are used to close up the wormholes that the locusts are pouring out of.

I think I'm the only person not excited for this game. Weird. Ghost Recon seems more fun, and far less "Rob Liefieldish" in art style.

I also got bored watching that. I'm suprised people don't get bored of playing those kinda games. They're all the same but with different characters and story lines. You might as well just replay Halo.
And what was with the A.I? Towards the end the main character ducked next to a bollard and the monster right next to him didn't even bother to shoot him!
The only good thing about the game looks like the good graphics but meh i'd rather play an interesting and fun game.

The demo was set to "casual" aka easy mode, just to show off how the game works. Of course on higher difficulties the AI will be much better.

I'm not sure but I don't think you can run and fire at the same time unless your planing on using a me lee move. In the video all it shows is covering then firing. Any1 else notice that.

Why is everyone dissing the grenades? I've thrown grenades; there isn't a lot of fire and flying cork in real life. That's just movie BS.
Granted, it could be argued that "Gears of War" isn't exactly going for realism ... I'm just saying that the grenades look fine to me. They may not have a huge kill radius, but they flush enemies out of their hiding places.

I wish they'd post these vids somewhere other than gamevideos.com. Then maybe we could all actually see it, rather than staring at a black square all night.

GOW will be a beautiful game but from that trailer the AI looks about as dumb as a brick. Come on. Your hiding behind a 3'x3' block and they don't try and come around you? Just seems like it may be too easy. I'm sure to find out as I've had the game on reserve for months and can't wait to try it.
