 I can't believe that M$ doens't force developers to follow bungies design.

yea... why? so we can play the same game design over and over again? in my opinion it's a nice change for the shooter genre but i do wish it supported more players...16? but i do see where you where going with your comment.

he ment bungies designs of multiplayer games, as in match making and clans and parties and party invites and party privacy. it is NOT a nice change for ANY shooter to NOT have match making in my opinion it is an absolute must.

Bollocks, what we don't need is another Halo, another online shooter filled with spoiled fat little pre-pubescent bastards from california who like to think their 1337. Gears of War is actually fun to play online at the moment, and it's nice to have something a little different.

It really isn't much fun getting a group of four friends together and then playing with them, every time the match ends, we all get put out to the menu!  Argh! This is the stupidest set-up I've ever played with in my life!

Bungie's design template for MP was the best MP setup in any game on any console to date IMO.  If "different" means I have to be inconvenienced every time I want to play with my friends, then fuck that.

An update is seriously needed.  The system really doesn't work well, you end up getting in a room with 6/8 people in it, then you must wait for another 2 people to join, which can take forever.

And please don't give the argument that there aren't little kids that annoy you like there is in Halo 2, they are there, and trust me, they haven't gotten any less obnoxious now that they're in GOW.

Once people realize how the multiplayer setup interface reeks of horseshit, they'll start to leave, in a trickle at first but then into a flood.  

How anyone can find the setup to be good is beyond me.    Its donkey shit.

Gears of War kicks a$$

yeah your right the iface for multiplayer is bad as in ranked games and matchmaking but besides that its a fun ass game to play and its pretty cool, and they need to fix the glitches like if you join a game late you cant speak and if you double chainsaw someone you get frozen and anyone can kill you
