    Cordoroychuck and I have recently started playing GoW 1 to get the feel of the game back, we are anticipating this just as much as a school girl at a N'sync concert. We have been trying to get people from FH play with us, cause we hate going in with random people. So you are more than welcome to join us in our epic battles good sir.

    Yeah, what he said, He downloaded it.
    dude, trust me, it is, I felt stupid twice cause I flinched in certain parts that I am not gonna spoil.....

    K people, I come battle hardened before you with news of our upcoming battles.

    New things I have found out today.

    -During Co-op mode, if you or your buddy are down, you will no longer have to wait there bleeding out, Now the CPU's (Coal, Baird, Carmine, or anyone else in your unit) Will revive you, Which is very very handy If I do say so myself.

    ......But, the other thing though. When you or a buddy are down, You actually "Bleed out" until you either die or someone picks you up. That means when your squad mate falls during battle, you better get your piggly ass over there and pick him up quick.

    I played in a few other levels today, one of em was near the finale, I refused to play after that and skipped Cutscenes cause I dont wanna spoil the story just yet.

    One level, has you walking in this very very very VERY dark tunnel, with nothing but the dim light of one of those Elephant looking veichels dimming you a bit of light behind you.
    It is soooo dark, that you cant see 3 steps ahead of you, which is a ***** because the tunnel is infested with TICKERS, these little creatures that run up to you and blow up. I was on my tippie toes the whole time.

    another level, which I didnt get to finish cause my break was over. had you fighting this big ass worm. The worm Swallows you so you end up inside its stomach, you have to chainsaw its arteries to injure it, but every time you do, blood spills everywhere causing the room to overfill with blood. you have to be quick or you will literraly drown in blood. (also, on a side note, theres this neat little thing I noticed, that when blood spills on you, your armor gets a temporary coat of blood on the spot blood lands on it)

    Thats my report for this week of Inside Gears of War 2. Tune in next week for more probably.

    I got to play it too.

    It was in Toronto last week, from Thursday to Saturday, and Friday, when we were walking about the city, we came across this like, huge ''tent'', some BestBuy event, we came back later, when it opened to the public, and I got tp play Gears 2, Guitar Hero World Tour, COD WaW, Far Cry 2, Midnight Club LA, and others.

    I only played like 5 minutes of each though, so I didn't get to get that big of a grasp on all the changes, but one of the things that was really noticeable were the color changes, like, remember how it used to be all black and white? Now it's all purdyfull!



    Chuck, fix your RROD!

    I figured since Gears is comming out tomorrow at midnight, Id bump this before anyone else makes anymore threads of GoW2.

    Anyone ready, wiling and prepared to fight, get on GoW1 today for Curbstomping, Chainsawing extravagansa.

    Gears on Friday, cant WAIT!

    All the guns sound more badass in this one, lancer sounds awesome and such. I also like the new scopes, they look like they'll help.

    Theres a chance ill be getting it thursday, as a local store i know is getting them in early, and let me know that. lol

    additionally, i went to the mall, and walked away with free gifts for myself. A 2 foot tall cardboard display to hold my game, and the limited edition tin case, without the game or booklets, but i got the cool case for free regardless. The employee said the promotion was technically over, so he let me leave with these:

    There you go edgar, make her usefull, lol.

    I can't wait to play it. I don't know which power weapon I want to start off with this time around. For some reason in the last gears I started off in multiplayer by always going for the torque and ravaged with it. But, I could only do well with one power weapon at a time. I think I'm going to go with sniper although I'm not sure. One thing is for sure though, I'm going to be executing people with fists only. Ahahaha, the immense power of crushing someone's skull with your fists. Bam, bam, baaammmm!!

    Starfire? Lolwut, if you're ruining the suprise of the game then stop.

    Me and my friends are staying up late Friday night and playing till morning. We're going to split into pairs and tackle the campaign. When that's done, we're all going to fight the horde and maybe some online play. It's going to be awesome and I can't wait. Drawing, when I get back into my prime be prepared for gruesome annihilation while Toochie watches. I'm going to pistol whip her first and force her on her hands and knees and then chainsaw you and then bash her head in. Wow, this is pretty much the only game I could do something like that.
