    By far the most disappointing panel that concerns the Gears of War franchise that they've had since appearing at the last five SDCCs. It was an absolute waste of time. No information of substance was even discussed. It was clearly a way for Cliffy, Lauren, Rod, & Fred to come to San Diego on Microsoft's dime. What a disappointment.

    haha you are the man Blank. Not afraid to tell it exactly how it is. But youll be the first to give credit where credits deserved. Honestly, what you said doesnt even surprise me. It seems like they are getting so caught up in there "fame" that they arent even paying attention to what really matters. THERE GAMES!!! Someone remind them that us fans are the only reason they are still a franchise. The fact that we keep buying games just praying that they will blow our minds like they did with Gears 1.

    You know me, I'll call a spade a spade. Here's the link to the vid for the Gears: Judgment panel, so you can decide for yourself if my opinion was just.

    Well i watched the first minute then realized its an hour video. I think ill save that one for tomorrow. But i already got that sense of them not being to serious within the first minute with that whole "hold on hes got to have the water ceremony" thing.

    Ok so I watched the whole video. There was an awful lot of joking and dry humor throughout the panel, I thought some parts were funny, others not so much! I can't really say that I learned anything new, except from the release date (which I already seen on Twitter). They seemed to just stick to the same lines 'where here to talk about OverRun'. 'Where here to talk about the 5 main characters'. 'Where not ready to comment on that'. 'Thats a secret'. I guess I had bigger expectations for this panel. I can not believe that no one asked about the sawn-off shotgun!?!? If that weapon makes into GoW: Judgment that's a deal breaker for a lot of people I think. Fred Tatasciore was a good sport throughout the panel very entertaining and all that, but he didn't tell us much about Baird :-/. The writers may aswell of not been on stage to be honest, they were shushed into the corner, WTF? I would of gladly listened to a small brief insight into there production, without spoilers.

    Did you get a change to play some GoW; Judgment Blank? If so please share your opinion with us.
