Gears of War Discussion Thread

Re: Gears of War Discussion Thread

I go to EB and its 6:15

The morons there tell me I have to wait until 7 am to get the game because they wont sell it until then.

Then they proceed to tell me I can still preorder at the last second. I look at my watch and I have a 45 minute wait, which I cant do, and Im thinking why wont these morons just sell me the game. Why pay in full or preorder only to come back in 45 minutes to pick it up when its sitting right there.

Asked for COD3 and they say tomorrow, so I tell them I'll probably just come back tomorrow.

All the while I see them trying to hoodwink a lady into buying a PS3 asking her for a $150 deposit. 3 guys talking to her all at once. Its like they were on a mission actnig as a team double and triple teaming anyone coming to purchase something.

Needless to say, I have neither game and am patient enough to wait another day or two or three.

Re: Gears of War Discussion Thread

IGN doesn't calculate its ratings off of the numbers they gave out, they seem to give an overall feel score.

Re: Gears of War Discussion Thread

did you beat this yet? I just got there and it's killing me in 2 seconds

edit: SON OF A B*TCH, I got all the way to the end and I was in the sprint and got hung on the last door and the thing got me.

I died the first time because I had no idea what to do. But after that it was a pretty fun mission. I tell ya though, that f'n thing is crazy as hell.

After that one time where I made it to the last door, I haven't made it even close sense. That thing tears you apart in no time.

It's all about timing, make sure you wait to the very last second, get the right angle, then press A to run out of the way.

Re: Gears of War Discussion Thread

I'm wondering if I should still buy the game now after hearing people complain about it being too hard. I don't have a lot of patience with non-sports games if they exasperate me. For the people who say it's too hard, is it more of a control issue that you get down after a bit or is it simply a difficult game to succeed at?

This month is expensive for gaming. I bought Guitar Hero 2 and Gears of War today. SDVR next week. I want COD3, but need to hold off because I'm getting the Wii, Zelda, + Trauma Center.

It's not as hard as some folks are saying.

No radars or blips showing enemies approaching. No auto aim...basically...no hand-holding.

Get cover, watch your head, use your team and fire at anything moving that isn't a friend.


Best purchase since NBA2k7.
