My biggest gripe is that Carmine gets little mention after his death, of course during the trip to the Niles research place, Dom mentions how Carmine would’ve loved the flame throwers and Marcus joked about it saying he would’ve probably burned their asses with them too. Dom, for once being nice towards Carmine, actually says “rest in peace Carmine.” <br><br>Other than that…he doesn’t really have any other mentions. I would’ve loved if Marcus mentioned him another time during Gears 2 or 3, since apparently in the lore Marcus was affected by his death more deeply than the game shows, hell, during his dream in Gears 3 Benjamin makes an appearance with Marcus and the others. It’s subtle since they don’t really mention it and you would only know if you pressed LB and saw the names and the objective point. That’s just me tho.

Tai was the baddest Gear and he snapped after a couple hours under the Locust torture<br><br>Maria was with them for twelve years<br><br>That scene was DARK dark but with all the context there it's just horrific to the core

Gears has always been video game comfort food to me. The big beefy enemies to shoot and the charging forward slamming into cover, hitting those pumpkin headshots. It just feels so good to play.

Coolest thing about the reaver flying section i learned while playing through the game again recently is that you pass over previous levels on your way back to Jacinto, you fly over New Hope, the Rift Worm Corpse, Land down, the place where Skorge and his Hydra come up is the Rig Section in act 2 where you fight climbing locust for the first time and where you kill your first Brumack

Gears 2 will always have my favorite story. Gears 3 was a beautiful conclusion to a perfect trilogy. An end to an era. But it doesn't give the same amount of gravity of what war is like the first two, or the general horror of the Locust, and the planet of Sera being terrifying enough as it is(the Riftworm being natural to the planet, and not a mutation like the Locusts).

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaqXTUYVdYU&t=1025">17:05</a> When you leanr the lore outside the games, Tai's death hits so hard. He's a tough islander dude who is the way he is as a way to keep sane in the war, giving out "wisdom" when he can, seems like nothing bothers him or gets to him ever and he's been through alot. But with Gears 2 he's been captured a short time ago by Scourge. And when you resxue him he's got cuts, piercings, he's been thrugh some sht aparently, but what's terrifying here is that whatever the Locust did him in such a short time, it broke him so much that he finally snaps and commits suicide, dude can't even at least talk for a little bit, he's so broken. His death always hits so hard for Gears 2.

Gears has such a special place in my heart. Easily one of my favorite series ever. Gears 2 was the first game I've ever beat and I beat it with my dad. My brother's and I played the hell out of the series and I still play it to this day.
