Reduced blood or not, you are still chainsawing people in half, blowing heads apart and what not. This ain't Halo. I'd say no to 11.

I'm sitting here at work, and all I can think about is a good curb-stomp. 5pm can't come quick enough.
I can't wait to try out the horde mode...anyone else up for this? I mentioned it to my fellow DHG bros...I think we should check that out tonight at some point. |
I will be online tonight looking for some multiplayer around 9 or 10pm EST.
|
I went to TRU and traded Saint's Row 2 (from the B2G1 free deal last month) in for Gears 2, and I got a $15 gift card along with the game. I don't know if that's been advertised or not...I was pleasantly surprised.
|
If anyone wants to play Horde mode tonight, send me an invite. I should be on most of the night playing

I'm pretty sure I already know the answer to this - but is this game appropriate for an 11-year old boy to play? He plays Halo3, COD4, and Team Fortress2, and he won't stop talking about GoW2. He wants it so bad that he'd risk not getting anything else for Christmas. But after watching the X Play preview, this game looks over-the-top gory and bloody - far worse than Call of Duty, Halo, etc..
Is the M rating pretty much for the violence and gore, or are there other themes in the game that give it the M rating? BTW - I told him no - it's way too violent, but I'd like some other opinions since we don't have GoW1 and only judging GoW2 from the previews. |
I forgot my receipt so I wasn't able to be there at 10 am. It sucks because Best Buy is across my office.
But I'm going home after lunch and coming back for the game :D |

I would guess you should be able to find it. seems like every game and electronics store, along with the big box places have a ton ordered.
Send me an invite later...I don't know why you're off my friends list.

I like playing games through the first time on normal then play again if I really like it on hardcore/expert etc. Do you feel hardcore in this game is easier than in GOW?
|
anyone know if Best buy will match toys r us promo on this? I wanna get $15 gift card to Best buy, not TRU.
|
My BB price matched the Circuit City 1600 pt. card deal, but not with the RC tank. One or the other, not both. Needless to say 1600 pts are a tad more valuable than a worthless RC car.

I don't think it was an advertised special. This is the first I heard about it.
i'm going over there to see if i can get them to honor the deal. |

Also, the tanks will be on clearance in like 30 days anyways. |
Odd. The CC I went to didn't have any 1600pt cards in, so they charged me only $47.30 (incl tax) for the game taking the cost of the 1600pt card out. Said they'd have to order the card and they'd call me when it gets in.
|
stupid best buy. wouldn't match the TRU deal. I may just keep the TRU copies, buy it from Costco (only $51.99 there and I have gift cards) then return those to TRU when they come in.

Lucky you...My BB rejected me on the CC price match. Bastards!
And CC being out of cards...wow, who saw that coming? They pull shit like that all the time, which prompted me to stop shopping there completely. Mysteriously, as soon as the promotion expires, the shelf will be fully stocked with points cards. guaranteed. |
This just came to my house. Can't wait to put it in tonight. I might just try Horde mode before I do anything else!
|
My local CC was out of point cards so he said they could order a card and have it shipped from their warehouse to my home free of charge.
Then he checked the warehouse and there were none in the warehouse. So he gave me a 20$ gift card with my game which seemed like a pretty decent deal to me. |
Did anyone get the replica Lancer from Amazon?
|
The multiplayer is a blast so far and I haven't run into any glitchers yet. Horde mode is also pretty cool. I got to level 17 with my group before we decided to move to multiplayer. The only problem that I have noticed with multiplayer is that you have to have a full group to find a game really quickly. Otherwise you'll have to wait a bit.
As for the campaign, I find it rather underwhelming so far. Everything feels rushed and kind of bland. So far, I think the first Gears had a much better campaign. With that said, this game is well worth a purchase for the multiplayer alone. There is so much there to keep you busy for a long time. |
