kids these days will never know what it felt like standing in line at gamestop to buy this game on release night, and play non stop for the next week, no sleep, just game, school, work, repeat.
I never realized this until now. When Marcus is walking away from Dom and hears a gunshot, he stops for a second. He stops because he’s waiting to hear if Dom is going to shoot himself. Shit man.
Meh, I feel like it was because he didn't think Dom was gonna do it and was kinda shocked, they hear gunfire all the time but you could be right if so that's so fucking depressing and sad
Gamestop at release night and taking the whole week off work for this game. It was so worth it mowing down the locusts with my brother and friends online all week long. Nothing but cold beer stong smoke and lots of batteries.
A lot of it didnt make sense as a kid but its even more messed up when you realize maria looked normal at first bc dom was imagining it but when he came back to reality he was holding a corpse
Benjamin Carmine was by far one of the best voice actors ever. I think his like ability is what made so many fans want Clayton to live…I bought the shirt
How Halo gets a remaster and multiple sequels but gears can’t even get a remastered trilogy is the biggest load of shit I’ve ever seen in my life I’m not saying halo is bad or anything. I just feel gears of war is on the same level when it comes to popularity.
you know, with the benefit of hindsight, Myrrah in the intro is still right with Humanity bringing the Locust upon them: even if they weren't made in a lab, her lover did steal away their daughter Raina; many would use that as a justifiable reason to go to war. Hell, it's what started the Trojan War
Me and my best friend would play this all the time, then he moved away and when gears 4 came out my other best friend both played the shit out of the multi-player that smg and shotgun went crazyyy
18:20 Still the best moment of the game by far. Thumbs up if u went nuts at this arrival! “Regrouped? Is that what you call it when I save your ass?” 😂😂😂😂 Edit: okay I was wrong, it’s 50:28
The only thing I wish the Gear Series went into was the Locust perspective a little if you read the comics they were disgustingly cruel but they had a comradery with one another
I’m pretty sure it’s meant to represent the pendulum wars as it was Cog vs UIR where they used the retros (going off of what myrahh was saying at the time of the cutscene) “humanity fought an endless war against itself”
They tried to make it a recurring joke, but instead they turned the Carmines into the Waterfall family from Futurama. Anthony Carmine Gears 1: Killed by a sniper Benjamin Carmine Gears 2: killed in riftworm guts by being overrun Clayton Carmine Gears 3: still alive. Has messages on his chest armour saying “Keep your head down” and “ practice reloading” D Carmine Gears 4: only mentioned by name. He mans the gun turret at the Outsider camp in Act 1. After Reyna be heads Jinns droid, she shouts his name as an order to shoot down the helicopter. During the defend the door mission that follows, his watchtower is blown up. Unknown if he survives or not as never mentioned again. Addendum: in Gears 5 when you visit the village of the Riftworm Skeleton, one of the collectibles is Benjamins decayed helmet.
I still don't understand why is Maria normal when she walks out of the pod but then turns right away? Is dom imagining she's OK? And then realises she isn't?

Facts man 😢
Isn't it the same way still
This game was crazy bro, jam packed with nonstop action and a satisfying story
🗿
Good times mate

Shit cuts deep
its a tear jerker
HOLY SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT! He actually stopped because he was afraid he'd hear a second gunshot. 😮
To this day one of the saddest scenes in a video game
Meh, I feel like it was because he didn't think Dom was gonna do it and was kinda shocked, they hear gunfire all the time but you could be right if so that's so fucking depressing and sad
36:52 just two doms chillin
Best game story of all time. Hands down. The amount of love put into these games is unlike anything made today aside from From Soft games.
Appreciate you actually showing the movie and not waisting time with gameplay clips

One of my favorite Gears games! So glad it got a 60 fps boost, but if only it were a remaster
The bad things about remasters these days. Is they remove certain things which I've noticed. But it's cool when they add new stuff in
@@dapaintbrush6965 sadly that is true
they would make anya a black man, and cole a persian woman
@@spongmongler6760that would be a remake if that would happen not a remaster thankfully
@@dapaintbrush6965 you don't make the rules, thy do, and they don't care about definition.
The sound effect after Marcus takes tai’s tag is so nostalgic
Absolutely beautiful upgrade enhancements, favourite Gears campaign of all time! Nice job Cay 👌💙
Gears of War 2 will always be the best looking Gears of War game in my opinion
2023 and it still holds up well.
Amazing how well the game has held up after 14 years. I would love to see a remaster too, but the game still looks pretty sharp!
No remasters I'll take a 3k emulator over remaster anyday
we getting a long awaited Prequel!
@@ABioluminescentRavebat I JUST SAW! HYPE!
@@TheAeroAvatar gonna be awesome!
@@ABioluminescentRavebat This I definitely gotta get my hands on.
50:34 I love cole train speech 😂
Best Gears game.

I still play original trilogy multiple times on my Xbox 360 because they’re that good.
My favourite gears of War game
I'm pretty sure I have like four or five copies of gears of war 2 because I loved the game so much but It kept breaking.
25:10 love this part

Such an amazing game it was... What a fun we had...

I love gears of War games ❤
Saddest part for me is you train ben and he ends up dying a brutal death at such a young age.
I’d be the first to buy a remastered on God.
not bad for a game this old. still looks pretty good
omg the graphics are gorgeous.
10:48 I honestly thought it was my copy that was bugged. Good to know everyone got the stuck drone out the wind shield.
As the grub killer I hate seeing Benjamin die
As a grub killer, I hate seeing Maria dying
@@Don_Shoeshine me too I want revenge on the locust for they did good people and good characters
I've never "snuck in." After what they did to Tai, what they did to Maria... I go in guns blazing every time.
Me too I want revenge on the locust for they did to the good people and good cog soldiers
I still think its hilarious how big they all are especially their boots🤣
It’s been years since I’ve played this
18:20 Still the best moment of the game by far. Thumbs up if u went nuts at this arrival!
“Regrouped? Is that what you call it when I save your ass?” 😂😂😂😂
Edit: okay I was wrong, it’s 50:28
Is graphics look so much better
Because thank to series X

Epic Games should really make a Master Chief Collection-Style game for Gears 1-4 on PC before the 360 servers shut down next year.
The greatest game of all time, and my best game ever. Deee Squad #1
When Dom finds his wife, that scene hits harder now that im older.
The failure he must've fealt im his heart. Im surprised he didn't kill himself
did anyone else notice that there were retro lancers in the 1rst cutscene?
I played this game so much the disc got burnt spots in it when it came out and I never noticed that until now.
I’m pretty sure it’s meant to represent the pendulum wars as it was Cog vs UIR where they used the retros (going off of what myrahh was saying at the time of the cutscene) “humanity fought an endless war against itself”
...this GREAT😅!!!, love watching gears of war😊!
Lightning McQueen
Kids now don't understand why we ALWAYS PICK the Gun's Blazing option.
36:53 2 doms 😂
42:06 I’m finna cry fam not gon lie
Dom is heartbroken 💔 😢
Wasn't thear a killed carmine in the firs game as well? Is that kind of a running joke like kenny's dead or so?
Yes Anthony carmine he was shot in the head
They tried to make it a recurring joke, but instead they turned the Carmines into the Waterfall family from Futurama.
Anthony Carmine Gears 1: Killed by a sniper
Benjamin Carmine Gears 2: killed in riftworm guts by being overrun
Clayton Carmine Gears 3: still alive. Has messages on his chest armour saying “Keep your head down” and “ practice reloading”

To think Gears of War came out 16 years ago, is just unfair.
How is it unfair
Was 16:30 a Halo reference???
Cliffy B needs his flowers

shit I want ti port to pc
I still don't understand why is Maria normal when she walks out of the pod but then turns right away? Is dom imagining she's OK? And then realises she isn't?
@@bigmouth2410 yes
Ben Carmine's death.......man.
40:02 :(
Did dom really have to euthanize her?? Why couldn't he at least try to save her
she was already broken and there wasnt really a way to escort her out while also completing their mission
