At least with COD 3 and RB6 coming out, it's not like I won't be able to switch game to game and get tired of one so quickly.
    But Gears isn't a FPS.

        The reason to 'read' into the comment is that once the novelty wears off, will the game still be able to stand as a great game, despite the issues with it.

        That's what im wondering as well and it's defiantly a valid concern. Having only three multiplayer modes, doesn't help either. I still think Rainbow Six Vegas will be my favorite shooter of the year when it's all said and done.

          Epic is working on new content (modes and maps). I expect new content for the game before the end of the year.

          I used to play nothing but Deathmatch and TeamDeathmatch for UT2004 on the PC, and it really never got old to me. I still play it from time to time. I could definitely see Gears getting old fast for some though, especially to those that prefer games like Call of Duty or Rainbow Six.

            I think Vegas will be my preferred game as well...but I know that many of my friends will prefer this one, and it should be great to play in online coop....

                Yeah, but online co-op is two players only, not four. If they gave you the choice up to four friends, I could see it being pretty fun. Plus, they said the story mode lacks alot. I just see this as a mutliplayer vs for me. That's pretty much the norm with any shooter for me though.


                Fish, I doubt you will get the game anywhere today unless you have it pre-ordered. I think only stores like EB and GameStop are getting the game today. I know the EB and GameStop in my area are driving down to their distribution center and picking them up.

                  Yeah, that computer called me last night to say Gears of War would be in today, but GS didn't get it. Oh well, gives me a night to Guitar Hero 2 and tomorrow is devoted to Gears and COD3.

                    You should be able to find it at Walmart, Best Buy or Target. The gaming stores may have it but they will most likely not sell it to you if you didn't reserve it. Their way of teaching you a lesson. Either way GL.

                        if I didn't have my little hot spot store near my job, I wouldn't have the game today, I called everywhere until my store near my job opeded, and they said I have no chance...So take for what it worth, you maybe able to still find one.

                          Just picked it up at Eb games in West Chester, Ohio. They had plenty of extras, at least 20. I never pre-order, and never seem to have to look all over for the games. Peace!!!!

                            Can't wait for your impressions.

                            I'm still leaning towards RB6:Vegas simply because I think the offline mode will be more engaging.
