Hell, I had my suspicions the moment he showed up that I'd be treated to his grisly demise sooner or later. I was surprised he stuck around that long after you find Baird. |
BANNED Posts: 38 Joined: 7 Sep 2008 | well i guess it was somewhat forseeable with the whole "rookie dies gloriously in combat" in most movies but i was just hoping he would hang around for the rest of the story or at least a little more of it User was banned for: LETS SEE HOW FAST I CAN GET THIS THREAD LOCKED!!!.

BANNED Posts: 38 Joined: 7 Sep 2008 | Carmine in Gears 1 was the one that got his head blown off and then his younger brother came back for Gears 2 and dies too User was banned for: LETS SEE HOW FAST I CAN GET THIS THREAD LOCKED!!!. (Permanent) |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2789 Joined: 4 May 2008    | I hated him. It started out as a joke, Carmine the rookie with an infinite ammo sniper rifle(sorry, I'm a sniping whore), and all that good stuff. Later, I actually got to developing a serious disliking for him. I would pretend-smack him with whatever gun I had at any given chance. |

It was his brother in Gears 2 (one of 4 originally). My prediction for Gears 3: You meet the third Carmine early in the game, he dies somehow, then the game becomes "Saving Private Carmine," (but you fail and the fourth one dies too). |

Also, Carmine isn't their name (Either a last name or a rank or something). Anthony Carmine was on Gears 1 and Ben Carmine was on Gears 2. |

And there are two more brothers to kill off, Clay, and as yet unnamed Carmine brother, who will probably be named Dylan or something like that (ABCD) |

Yeah but still, he was refreshing as a new character, A bad-ass calm fellow with psychotic religious-ness gives me a stiffy.. *runs* xD |
Press Junketeer Posts: 404 Joined: 18 Sep 2008   | Come on, dudes with helmets in Gears are the Redshirts of the series, even more so if they are called "Carmine." How did anyone NOT see that coming? Though, it does defy logic why the dudes with helmets are the stormtroopers that die within seconds. Wouldn't fighting with a helmet INCREASE your chances of living, as opposed to the main characters, who neglect their headgear? |

I got epic lols when carmine told Dom and Marcus to wear helmets so that they could breath better |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1288 Joined: 21 Nov 2007  | Carmine's the man. I got pissed when he died. I was hoping for character development, and some crowning moment of badassery before they offed him. Sadly no such moment came. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1409 Joined: 19 Nov 2008  | I liked Carmine a lot in Gears 1. I was sad when he died. Just gunned down by a sniper. |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 905 Joined: 21 Dec 2007  | I think the fourth Carmine will probably be a BAMF, seems like Cliffy B's sort of stupid irony. I mean muscle bound, no helmet and a completely different voice (or the same voice acting, but acting all tough and macho like the rest of them). I want to find out happened to Dizzy. |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 628 Joined: 26 Mar 2008    | hes the token "soldier that dies" during the story, besides that they have another 24 to go really... |
Paperboy Posts: 30 Joined: 5 Jan 2009     | Wait did not Carmine die in the first Gears of War? edit: Oh it was his brother. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2591 Joined: 27 Aug 2008  | I thought it would have been better to BE carmine and watch the squad interaction more first person. |
Beat Writer  Posts: 192 Joined: 24 Jul 2008   | I should point out that the new carmine in Gears 2 says that he 'is one of four brothers, well, three now' He's obviously the brother of Carmine from Gears 1 (I can see people sending me 'no shit Sherlock' messages but bear with me). Since we've had a Carmine in both Gears so far, do you get the idea that we're going to get four Gears of war games and that they'll stop when they run out of Carmines? EDIT: I haven't seen the ending of Gears 2, as I haven't completed it yet, so please don't tell me about how it ends and if Fenix dies or something. |

That's what I think is going to happen. |

When i was playing through the Gears of war 2 campaign, i was introduced to Carmine, my favorite character, because i found him the most entertaining and sympathetic character in the story, only to be devastated by his death in the giant worm. What are your thoughts on this?
