John DiMaggio, the voice of Marcus Fenix (as well as Futurama's Bender), has revealed that Xbox 360 gamers will finally get to fight the lumbering Brumak in Gears of War 2.
In an interview with IGN, DiMaggio said of the much anticipated sequel, "It's badass. In fact, I saw some of the stuff yesterday! Which level was it? It was, well listen, there's bigger beasts in this game. Bigger beasts. Remember the scene with the Brumak, when the Brumak comes out and we're like 'Brumak! Roll! Get outta there!' and it's coming after them - and they don't have a fight with him? Well, they fight him now."
This is nothing new for PC gamers, who got to fight the Brumak in an exclusive chapter of GoW on PC that was released last November. The Brumak appears in the Xbox 360 game at the end of the fourth act, although when the fifth and final act starts up, the Brumak is nowhere to be seen and you find yourself at the train station (where you go on to fight General RAAM).
The exclusive chapter on the PC version filled this gap as you were pursued by the Brumak throughout it, culminating in its electrocution at the end. We're seriously hoping that this exclusive PC chapter doesn't get rehashed for Gears of War 2 on Xbox 360, although this seems unlikely as it could simply be another Brumak battle that DiMaggio is referring to.
DiMaggio also revealed that, as well as voicing Marcus Fenix once again for GoW 2, he will also voice the forgettable character of Franklin (the guy who leads you through the checkpoints in the 'Nightfall' level in the first game).
