Okay, we’ve had some time to collect ourselves after watching the new Gears of War 2 gameplay video (hyperventilation FTL) and decided to examine the crap out of it. Posted after the break, we compiled a rather complete list of new GoW2 facts, tidbits and information we discovered after giving the latest video a good watching analysis. And wouldn’t you know, we actually learned a lot! Click towards the break to view our list and feel free to comment telling us if we missed something. We have a feeling we’re going to love chainsaw duels.

Even earlier then promised, here she be in all her glory! Embedded above is the just released (literally minutes old) and very first in-game footage of Epic’s Gears of War 2 thanks to the fine folks over at GameVideos. We don’t want to spoil the video experience for you, so we advise just jumping in head first. But if you’ve to know, there’s bunch of sexy gameplay, some story speak, chainsaw duels, hostages and neck snapping … FREAKIN’ DELICIOUS. Click play, take it in, discuss and commence your drooling mechanisms. We’ll have time for analysis later.
Remember, there is only ONE exclusive GoW2 video being released tonight and this is it. Both Gametrailers TV and the XBLM will be debuting this same trailer today at 2:00AM eastern.

The moment Gears of War fanboys have been waiting for is almost here. The time when gamers across the globe get a first look at in-game Gears of War 2 footage. Happy, happy, joy, joy!
Tonight (depending which time zone you’re in), at 10:30PM pacific (1:30AM eastern), GameVideos will be the first to premier the exclusive GoW2 gameplay video featuring an introduction by Cliffy B and promises a “first-look of chainsaw duels and large scale firefights with Locust Horde.” Then, at 11:00PM pacific (2:00AM eastern), Gametrailers TV will be airing that SAME GoW2 video. There was some confusion to whether or not the GameVideos and Gametrailers videos were the same and we just confirmed with our sources that to be true. There will only be one GoW2 gameplay video. Finally, at 11:01PM pacific, the same GoW2 video will be available for download off the Xbox Live Marketplace in full HD glory.
Strap in tight fanboys, because Gears of War 2 video eye-candy is but hours away …

Anyone who wasn’t lucky enough to experience the closed beta of the slightly controversial EA first-person comedy-shooter (not kidding), Battlefield: Bad Company, will soon have their chance. Today EA announced that a demo for the DICE developed title will hit the Xbox Live Marketplace and PSN on June 5. The single and multiplayer demo promises to showcase what was in the beta as well as the wacky characters found in the campaign mode. Gamers who decide to pre-order the title from select retailers will be treated an early download of the demo beginning Might 29.
For those at home keeping score you’ll remember pre-ordering and playing the demo will give gamers access to two of the five controversial weapons found in the beta. Pre-ordering gives gamers access to the QBU88 Sniper Rifle while downloading and playing the demo nets players the UZI Submachine Gun.
Battlefield: Bad Company ships on June 25.

A new trailer for FaceBreaker has been released, this time featuring a deadly ninja warrior by the name of … Steve. It turns out Steve isn’t quite a ninja master per se, but rather a quadruple black belt in ninja boxing. He is also apparently the regional quest master of his Wizards & Lizards guild. In other words, he’s the nerd who thinks he’s a badass (think Napoleon Dynamite’s brother, only fat). If FaceBreaker can keep its sense of humor and be fun to play, we’ll be mighty happy.

Did somebody state instruments? Actually, no, no they didn’t. Still, it’s hard to envision what else could be in store for Guitar Hero. According to Activision Publishing CEO Mike Griffith, the series is set to make a “significant leap forward in innovation.” The information was revealed in a conference call yesterday, and while no more details were given, Griffith did note that more info would be released “in the coming weeks.” Honestly though, what would it be other than more instruments? Maybe you can also tilt the guitar down now? Real strings instead of buttons? Feel free to post your thoughts in the comments as we wait for the official answer.
