The latest GameInformer has new info on Epic's Gears of War 2. From the GDC 08 trailer we saw the UE3 engine moved from a handful of Locust on screen to hundreds, and the elusive Brumak from the original will be present, but so will even larger creatures making the "Brumak look like a baby panda bear." The fight is being taken to the Locust so expect expansive, multi path, and prettier underground locales, where you will be assisted by 4 new characters (Tai Kaliso, leader of the COG forces Chairman Prescott, Dizzy, the driver of a new vehicle; and Dom's wife Maria Santiago, narrator of the story.) Singleplayer co-op will allow people to play at different difficulty settings when paths split. The cover system has been tweaked to offer better protection, new chainsaw duels have been added, new weapons, achievements, and a War Journal with background story.
