Is the Griffon guy voiced by Ice T? Have been at my parents house this weekend and my dad came in to see what all the cursing was during that part, LOL.

My wife, Swarley, Med and I just finished this shit on Hardcore. Although somehow Swarley and Med got robbed out of the Hardcore cheevo. I got it though.
Oh well, we'll grab that shit once we play through again on insane difficulty. Fun ass game though.

Man this Gears story back and forth is weird.
Gears isnt so much about the plot as much as it is how the story occurs.
Reminds me alot of Predator 1 ((which they were clearly inspired by)).
Gears 1 was this dreary washed out world that really mixed horror and sci fi. The story was thrown together but the delivery , the characters personas , weapons , the curbstomp ,and the imagery was all top grade and extremely memorable.
Gears 2 got fucked over by Josh Ortega ((comic book writer)) he basically ass raped Halo for all its worth and took the franchise in a bad direction. The lab , the sires , the queens origin. All these stupid things that were needless and left us with pointless unanswered questions (which remain unanswered). Barring ONE stage with two scenes that were ballsy , fucked up , and memorable the whole story was a wash.
Gear 3 FINALLY got Karen Traviss on board and was phenomenal. It certainly could have been better but frankly she had to minimize the damage Josh did.
Anyone whos read the books knows she does a great job and can fill the characters very well without the needed fluff. IMO if Josh didnt go screw it up with the lambent they could have just as easily played up the rust lung and stayed with emulsion being a parasite and contagion. Instead of stupid zombies could have just been rotting humans and locusts like super lepracy and killing off both populations.
Enough rambling. BOTTOM LINE I dare anyone to find a campaign where FOUR of the characters were as memorable as Delta Squad. A series that can match the death scenes in GOW. And did it with balls to the wall action throughout the 3 games.
Im sure theres a few rpgs and random games with rich story lines but over 3 games ? With characters that go WOOOOOO AINT ENOUGH FREAKS TO STOP THIS MAN !! THATS 5 MOTHERFUCKERS !! and SUP BITCHES!
If you read any of the books it adds alot of depth to the series. You know how Dom and Marcus grew up , what happened to Carlos , why Dom and Marcus considered themselves brothers , why the Queens origin was so fuckin suspicious ,why Tai killing himself was such a fuckin shocker ,why the UIR stuff at the end was relevant , why Bernie Mataki is awesome , why Hoffman is such a bad ass , and why the stranded and cog cant stand each other.
If I have to nitpick on part 3 it would be this..
One cool thing I noticed and confirmed online
Anyways I only play "name" games and not a hardcore gamer as many are so my selection is a shallow pool. But Gears 3 best campaign and best story telling since Halo 1. My favorite trilogy ever. Portal 1 was a better plot this gen but Delta squad and curbstomp > Cube and Glados holes in the wall.

^KINGOFFOOTBALL hit the nail on the head with his comments on Traviss. Without a doubt, one of the best writers out there and she has written great books in the Star Wars universe, specifically the Republic Commando series. She also has four Gears novels under her belt, so she knew that universe as well and could tie things together.

Great post KOF. The books help put everything together as best they can. Granted if you read the books a lot of stuff gets left out in the games. Michaelson( Im assuming you read the books at this point) who played a pretty big role in two books was killed in the first ten mintues and trescu was there for two seconds. The games just seem to go in circles whlle the books actually have taken the story ahead.

Act 4 in the ash was great. IceT /Griffin was awesome. I love the fucked up ammo boxes.
If I had any balls id make a youtube goof video on how 70% of GOW3 cut scenes were the squads opening and closing garage doors and holding barbwire for each other.

Really? I thought he was terrible. Maybe it's because I hate his voice but his voice didn't seem to match the character at all in my opinion.

I thought griffen was just a really tan white guy when facebook was giving away his character code. I had no idea he was black.
yeah it is

I always liked his voice so maybe that is the reason. I was on the fence but his second cut scene and giving Marcus the finger won me over. Much better voice work than Jace IMO.
