Gears of War 2 ad makes us want to play Gears of War 2

New "Last Day" commercial perfectly captures the quiet before the storm, much like the "Mad World" ad did for the original Gears of War in 2006.

Although Gwar might have been more fitting as background music for the Gears 2 ad, the 60 second spot cleverly favors the soothing sounds of Devotchka's "How it Ends." Grabs your attention, doesn't it?

And if the above reminds you of the first Gears of War commercial, featuring the soothing sounds of Gary Jules' "Mad World," it's because the spot was made by the same advertising company.

Nice form. Gears of War 2 arrives on Nov. 7.

Yeah, it's awesome. I still like the Mad World one better. This one has it's own flare though.

Same, I just feel sorry for the parents who buy this for their kids thinking it'll be as artsy as the trailers.

I kind of like this one better, it kind of gives you a more better look into the story than seeing a corpser and hearing Donnie Darko.
