Title: Gears of War 2
Post by: vitriol on Sep 27, 2008, 20:02:36
Only 41 days till release.  Can't wait for it, if it's half as good as the first game then were all in for a real treat.

Who here is planning on buying?

Horde mode looks amazing, 5 player co op.  Just you and four mates taking on wave after wave of Locust.

Kinda reminds me of Smash TV !

My wife just came home from Sainsburys with a copy for me.  I'd been talking about it earlier this week.  Loved the first game, and having just watched the video in the link above, I think its going to be a late night!  I let my Gold membership lapse earlier this year, but I think I might just reactivate it for this.  GoW multiplayer was the most fun you could have with your clothes on, and in terms of stress relief, nothing else came close!  ;D

Hey Myst,

Thanks for playing the other night, sorry about the Horde shambles, my brother in law was hosting on his terrible BT Openwoe connection, and their four year old split his head open sp they had to take him back to hospital to get it re stiched.

Hope to get some more games in soon.

Did you do Horde on casual? We've been trying on Harcore and level 10 is rock hard.

Good bargain on CoD5 btw
