WHAT? Gears co-op and multi online were an absolute blast.

God I loved that Torque Bow. Anyone know of any changes to it?

It's crazy seeing the differing opinions about this game.

To me, hands down the best all around gaming experience ever.

LOVED the single player campaign, and LOVED the online multiplayer. Myself and about 3-4 other buddies STILL play this online every single week.

I cannot WAIT for this game to come out.

People have different tastes. I prefer more realistic shooters like Socom. I had fun with GOW for probably a few weeks, then it just got old because it was pretty much just a run n gun and saw game.

The SP was good too...but when I finished the Sp I felt like I just played Halo on staroids. And I hate Halo.

If you can pry yourself away, impressions would be radical.

Ah, I see. I don't think there is way that you couldn't get both the gift card and 1600 MS points. If I pre-order today, do I get the gift card today or not until the game comes out? Do I need to tell them that it's on their site or what?

EDIT: Where does it say on their site about the gift card? Even if you can't get both, the 1600 MS points alone are worth getting the game there. That is some free DLC for Rock Band 2. I'd rather have the 1600 MS points then the $10 gift card.

Must not be going on anymore, a couple of days ago when I looked at their site it had $10 gift card bonus listed next to it. Since I'm impatient I'll probably go to my 24hr Wal-Mart pick up the game then go by Circuit City later on buy it for the MS points and return that unopened copy to Wal-Mart.

SHADY!!!!!!, but I would do the same thing.

Re: Gears of War 2

I know I couldn't get the $10 pre-order either.

Re: Gears of War 2

Weak! I'd still rather have the points thought.

Re: Gears of War 2

Gears of War 2: Locust in the Mist

Despite the unfamiliar faces making their way into Gears 2, it's actually a few of the bigger baddies from the first game that do a better job of differentiating the two titles. More accurately, it's how you'll be fighting the larger enemies that is different in Gears of War 2. Without giving anything away, I'll just say that there are a lot of Corpsers, a ton of Brumaks and plenty of Seeders and Reavers to deal with. Sometimes there will be several at once, other times you'll have to take them on in a more traditional sense.

The enemies in Gears of War 2 not only include new, never before seen creatures, but the game also changes how you deal with some classic Locust from the first Gears. Mighty Brumaks that represented the end of a level are now nothing more than fodder for your cannons at several different turns. Gears of War 2, and the battles that transpire therein, are totally unlike anything we've seen from Epic Games before.

Prepare for the fight of your life.

Re: Gears of War 2

Gears of War 2 will select the best host like in Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4. Also, it will have an integrated friends list similar to Halo 2.
