Of all the excellent – and anticipated – video games being released this fall, the ongoing sagas started in Gears of War and Resistance: Fall of Man were two of the biggest.

I take a look at the two games in this week’s “Trigger Happy” column in the Georgia Straight.

For better or worse, many of this fall’s video-game releases are sequels. Two of the biggest, Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2, have much in common but are ultimately very different games. Both, though, are bound to satisfy the hard-core gamers they were developed for.
