About Me


Yo East Coast, where you at?

Hello, fellow D-toiders, my name is Andrew and I reside in New York City. It has been such an amazing experience being a part of this wonderful community. From my activities as a host of the Friday Night Fight events to becoming one of the community members responsible for handling the Destructoid NY group, coordinating East Coast meetups to helping the PAX meetup group, I have loved every minute of my time spent with this community.

Please hang out with other Dtoid members whether it would on the main site chat to your local Dtoid group. It can be life changing, trust me on that.

NYCC-Gears of War 2 Panel-One Good Thing
power-glove | 6:27 PM on 04.20.2008 11 comments


As you may know, there was a special Gears of War 2 panel at the New York Comic Con. The
focus of the panel was a reflection on the Gears of War universe as a whole

Unfortunately, there was not much being talked about at the session but there was one thing
of note. The question of how were the Locusts were going to portrayed in the sequel came up.

Their response was that story of Gears of War 2 would flesh out the Locust character's story
and make them more than a group of grunting behemoths. It really nice to hear that they are
really looking to improving the storyline in this game.

I had a really great time this weekend. The best part of the weekend was when I had dinner
with several members of D-Toid including Nick Chester and his wife, Topher, .Tiff, Samit,
Phist, Cowzilla 3, and A. Pidgin) I will post something a little more significant in the future
about the event with pictures.

It does seem that the locusts could have been replaced with cubes of meat and the game wouldn't have been much different.

I like how they are fleshing out the story and the charachters.

That's good, because the ending made me curious to know more about the Locust.

Its good to hear that they're focusing on the story, because in looking back Gears story SUCKED. No character development was to be had which is odd since the the core characters in the game are so distinct.

It was good meeting and hanging with you, man. Glad I didn't rush to get to the Gears panel, it seems.

It sucks that I wasn't able to find all you guys there. My hotel wanted to me to pay $12 for 24 hours of wireless and I said hell no.
