Sadly Gears of War camera control never entered my mind until LinkinPrime asked the question. Apparently I was too focused on the dead man dropping a Cleveland Steamer. I looked around and after some research, I found this step-by-step over at GearsofWarForums.net
How to Control Camera When Dead! * Note * This requires certain surcumstances. Minumum 3 players on a team and the other team alive. No host required. Also this hasn't been tested on all maps and not very often so It may not work the first time. I havn't had that problem but then again I only have tryed this a few time. - Now your dead
- Make sure you are looking at one of your teammates
- Now that teammate you are looking at dies, that is great. Don't do anything. Don't press buttons
- Wait untill his body goes away, no touch that camera.
- It sould then change camerias.
- To move the cameria is hold the back button and the move the anolog sticks.
- You can go around the map anyware. See every angle you want.
To do this without waiting you have to be host a boot the person you are looking at the you can move the cameria like I sayed before. Also, If anyone needs help send me a Friend Request to Dr DMoney And if this is old sorry for coping the first person who found it. Edit *Note* IF you switch camerias you won't beable to do this. And when you press the back button to more of course the score comes up so sorry for action movie makers. Via:

I can't believe the Gears of War community is STILL finding shit in this game almost 2 months after it's release, especially since everyone and their brother are playing the hell out of it online. This could've only been better if it was a DOOM Marine. But seriously, what made the dudes at Epic decide to hide a poor CoG taking a dump in a multiplayer map?

 It's no secret we love Guitar Hero and that some of our staff believe that the sequel, Guitar Hero II could be the game of the year. Which is no small feat concidering that 2006 was an epic year in terms of gaming; Gears of War, Viva Pinata, Rainbow Six: Vegas, Final Fantasy XII, Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops, Okami, New Super Mario Bros. and Zelda Twilight Princess are just some of the AAA games released this year and to say that Guitar Hero II deserves to be in that company is no small feat.
But, the true beauty of Guitar Hero II is the community that has sprung up around it, today i'm going to highlight some of the community sites dedicated to the greatness that is Guitar Hero II.
ScoreHero.com:
ScoreHero has created an awesome site for establishing community-based leaderboards. (at least until the Xbox 360 version hits in 2007...)
To curb cheating and add merit to the scores, ScoreHero offers a great feature called "Proof Points." Meaning, that you need to put your money where your mouth is and upload a picture of your Misirlou high score for anyone to believe you.
YouTube:
The link we have provided to YouTube, already sorts the Guitar Hero videos by Expert Difficulty and 5 star performances. Watch in wonder as these axe-wielding hardcore gamers, shred Guitar Hero 1 & 2. The Guitar ...

SEGA is Reviving Alien Syndrome And We Aren't Joking This Time! |

 Just last week, I made this comment (jokingly) About Alien Syndrome:
"For a second, I thought Alien Syndrome was coming to Xbox Live Arcade, but thankfully The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Fox has signed an exclusive contract with SEGA to develop new titles based on the 'Alien' franchise."
Sure enough, our inbox had screenshots from anonymous tipster "Ripley69" of none other than Alien Syndrome. We have no idea about the platform releases of this, but judging by the graphics, I would have to say that it is some combination of the following; Xbox Live Arcade, PSP, or Wii. No matter what platform Alien Syndrome is coming out for, I will be avoiding it like the plague.
Why? Because Alien Syndrome on the SEGA Master System was one of the hardest games of its day. Hard. Damn hard. Ninja Gaiden hard. Imagine Smash TV with poor controls and aliens, and you have yourself Alien Syndrome. Scratch what I said earlier about avoiding it like the plague, maybe I can finally put my personal Alien Syndrome Demons to rest once I stomp this new version.

In honor of this morning's great news for hardcore gamers, we have all 4 new Virtua Fighter 5 trailers for your viewing pleasure. All 4 videos are in game and a new trailer will be available each day all the way up until Christmas. From these early videos, Virtua Fighter 5 is shaping up nicely and seems to fit in prefectly with the rest of the series, which to me at least has the best single-player mode of any fighting game on the market. |

We've been anxiously awaiting the release of Virtua Fighter 5, even though it was on the PS3, just look at our previous posts about it. The only downside was the exclusivity of PS3 and that made us very sad. But today is a day for rejoicing because SEGA must've drank some of Ubisoft's coffee and decided to bring the fighter that we have all been waiting for to the Xbox 360. Now if only Kojima would secede as well, there would literally be no reason to own a PS3 until at least 2008.
SEGA ANNOUNCES VIRTUA FIGHTER 5 FOR XBOX 360
