man that tutorial is so full of life and humor. "man someone needs to do an ammo sweep around here" - giving context on why there are random grenades on the ground. "pull that shit again and you're gonna get some unexpected chainsaw training". "wow, all this damage came from your grenade" - "sure as hell didn't come from yours". "thats an order, soldier!" so much immersion I just love that marcus isn't a total asshole. he had to tell dom to cool it down with the insults to his brother who died. Really miss those character development moments. gosh, this was nostalgic.
I mean he has every right to. This basically the equivalent to seeing a fucking nuke go off and destroy a whole city on your second day of active duty.
I mean he did die taking part in the lightmass offense which even though it wasn’t directly sacrificed he played his part as did all the dead gears in gears 1
One thing I love about Ben is despite his green-ness, he gradually wins the respect of Delta Squad, even Marcus; not only that, but he retains his cheeriness while still being a competent and capable Gear, even if that green-ness still shows on occasion. One thing that sucks about him dying is how later, Marcus and Dom comment on Ben's love for pyrotechnics, something we didn't get to see before his death 😟
I really fell in love with Benny, his cheesiness and enthusiasm really helped lift up some of GOW heaviness. Helped too that I learned his was killer with his Longshot. Took the head of a Drone that had me down in one run.
14:17 Marcus: "where's Carmine?" Ben: " I got your back Sarge!" It always hit me that moment because even if he was a green gear, he earn the respect of all delta members, even Marcus... and try to do his best for his squad members.. that vibe of little brother trying his best even if he screws up... damn.... hits more harder now that I'm the elder brother of my family.. Rest in peace Benjamin
Wish we had more screen time with Anthony and ben. While Anthony was killed too quick I think ben was a great character. I can see why Clayton really wants the locust dead...
I think there was more planned for Anthony as a character. My only evidence being that he was in the first Gears of War teaser in Veteran armor and to the left of Marcus in the original game cover.
@@ThePilleroflightning I just replayed Gears 3 for the first time since childhood. I have no idea why Clayton got sidelined. He was a cool character. Why the heck did Jace get more screentime... Didn't Epic make a big deal out of his survival? Makes no sense narratively.
@@twitchtokoyami4830 And in the dream in Gears Of War 3 you can see Anthony and Ben fighting alongside Marcus and Dom, real shows they had a impact on him to that kind of personal extent.
Beefiest 18* y/o I’ve ever seen in a game. I’ll forever be sad that we never got to see him become a veteran gear in his own right and having interactions with big brother Clay.
honestly i was really flipping mad at the way he died why was no one holding on to him while they were in the raven?! like he was wounded he couldnt catch him self from falling and he was bound to fall eventually since its no doors and it takes wide turns i was just mad no one held on to him to keep him from falling
@@AwildGwen That’s why if this game ever gets a remaster (with brand new cutscenes to boot) I hope they show Delta trying to keep him on the Raven until his inevitable fall. On a side note, I wish we got to see him grow especially by 4 and 5. Oh well.
i appreciate the flamethrower comment at the end being put in it made me so sad seeing them mention his passing but also happy that he meant smth to them that theyd remember him even after.
words will never be able to describe how much i loved Ben not only my favorite Carmin but defenitly one of my favorite charecters right up there with Dizzy
Ben Carmine he's a cool cog rookie sucks that he died even though Anthony died a sniper but Ben died a hero B. Carmine: I GOT YOUR BACK SARGE thats a hero's death
I'm sorry, but the scene where he rolls outta the helicopter into the Riftworm's mouth and the way Marcus yells "CARMINE!" after him will never not be funny to me.
Indeed, the og trilogy needs a remaster/UE. 1 looked good, would love to see it for 2 and 3, don't necessarily care to have one for Judgement, but if they remaster it, I "might" try it.
The UE Gears was really good and even better than the original imo, but I still prefer the original because in UE they toned down the gore a lot, but still if I introduce my friends to gears I'm going to let them play UE
I always thought that Marcus might’ve saw Ben as a son but it may have not seem like but in gears 3 in the nightmare ben is in it that may imply that bens death had a huge impact on Marcus life indicating Marcus cared about him so much like a son
10:08 Benjamin Carmine:“that’s why I wear helmets so I don’t breath in dust” Dom: “ya but I wouldn’t see snipers wouldn’t I” he was basically talking about Anthony carmines death
man ben was my favorite character besides marcus and when he died i was just sitting on my couch bawling my eyes out and i wish he had more time in this game especially during the last parts of the game
Being someone who played Gears 2 first (well, technically 3 was first, but only the first level), Benjy was the first Carmine I'd gotten to know; boy, was I surprised learning his origins in regards to his brother Anthony's unexpected popularity 😅
@@fuyotaco6557 Ben's helmet is different in this scene. search up his helmet and the back side of it is not the one in this scene. it's instead one of the other cog helmets shown in gears 2.
Cmon man master chief isn’t a scared kid how he remind you of him 😂. Not to mention any Spartan II especially chief would make light work of any cog character
B.Carmine really has heart and soul It’s why he’s so likeable He literally what you would expect from a private. Wish he lived. Honestly one of my favourites in the entire franchise. From all the deaths B.Carmine the one which upsets me the most. Second being Maria’s then Doms. You can see he was truly trying just to make his squad proud and fit in. He a good soldier. I genuinely feel bad for him that no one took him seriously because he’s a rook/private. Loved that character I wish he lived. I
I believe the 4th brother was in the Comics. Judgement references a non-COG family member in the first act. I believe there is about 8 or so known Carmines in the series.
Carmine did NOT deserve to die like that and so soon. He did nothing wrong to deserve such a fate. Thats one if the gears of war deaths that made me feel sad. R.I.P. Ben Carmine you'll never be forgotten
I remenber especting to Carmine to die like a stupid way or something but he dies at the end of the game and like a pro, literally surviving a gigant fall in the belly of a gigant monster and then die while saying her goodbuys, Ben was one of the best. And the dead of Tai was soo fucking shoking.
You know after years of not seeing my fav scene of the raven with carmine I find his staying behind to cover Marcuses back weird. I know at the time making games like this were hard but again it's still weird.
I’ve replayed this campaign 5 times, everytime I play it with a friend I tell them to spot any halo references. They get excited at that part of the game.
