According to the official Gears of War website, the Microsoft booth will be hosting 5V5 Gears of War 2 multiplayer matches during this weekend’s Penny Arcade Expo.

Along with the playable matches, there will also be an on-stage demo of the “Sinkhole” level from Gears 2 and both Gears writer Joshua Ortega and Gears artist Pete Hayes will be making an appearance at PAX for a quick Q&A session and autograph signing.

Now this kind of pisses me off because I’m not going to PAX, but I did go to E3 last month, and Microsoft didn’t have Gears 2 playable. That’s not fair at all.

You can check out all the days and times for the Gears of War 2 showcase at PAX at the official Gears of War website.
