Cliff Bleszinski says that Gears Of War II will be more "girlfriend-friendly." Epic Games is currently refining GOWII content so that it will appeal to a broader audience and even more specifically, girlfriends.
When the changes are final, female characters will no longer have "ginormous tits." As an example, Bleszinski talks about Anya, the strong-willed female figure in Gears. He mentions that she has a very "modest chest" and in no way resembles something from a heavy metal fantasy sex movie. In addition, multiplayer co-op missions will also feature difficulty changes on the go. But if nothing goes according to plan, your significant other can still take cover behind a rock or something while you lob a couple of grenades into an angry crowd.
On a seperate note, Gears Of War II will be "bigger, better and more bad-ass." An added bonus in the latest installment allows players to literally flip the chainsaw over and perform some well-aimed taint cuts, effectively severing codpiece from body. Ouchie. For the time being, now one knows what's exactly inside the sac. Cliff B. claims that such information may be revealed in future sequels.
