Gears of War 2

Whose stocked about GOW 2?

I know I am, release date is 11/7.

I'll still be on con leave from surgery, so bet your asses I'll be at Gamestop as soon as they open for my copy.

Darrell thanks for reminding me about that!! I almost forgot that it was coming out this november. The first one was great. It took me forever to figure out how to kill the last boss.

Pretty darn excited myself, probably be at the store that day and then online until I beat it. Kind of like Halo 3, except I like the online game play much better on GOW.

Darrell, how do you feel about some of the changes? Chainsaw wars and images and such?

I welcome the changes, I think this one will be better than the 1st.

I'm also looking forward to this one. Can't wait!

I agree, I am just wondering how the new maps will play on the online competitions. I didn't like a few of the new maps they added for GOWI and the new screen shots look too busy or something to me.

I'm sure I'll pick it up. Maybe still be busy with little big planet tho

YEP! The only game I can play with the boy. GoW was awesome!

Sadly I am so pathetic that mine is already paid for and is guaranteed in the first shipment from my local B&M, I did the same for Fable

Never was a big GoW fan, but I will prolly pick it up. Resitance 2 looks good also.

I plan on being at the midnight released at my local Best Buy to pick this up. There are SOOO many games coming out in this last quarter.. I'm broke!

Loved the original, can't wait for the sequel. Graphics look awesome and I'm loving the "rail" scenes. Not sure why people complained about this in the reviews.

[Cigargal]

I just ordered Fable and Fallout-I am hoping those will keep me busy until Christmas and GoW2 will be on my Christmas list.

Nice.. I forgot that GOW2 was released today.. I just got a new job offer (Been unemployed since August).. I may have to celebrate by picking myself up a copy..

Im posting this after Ive already bought and have been playing GOW2 and it totally ROCKS!! cant wait to play Horde online either!

I beat the game on normal and enjoyed it. If you play Horde make sure you get 4 other friends in their with you, it gets pretty hard. I got up to level 10 on insane with some friends and couldn't get any further, but I had to bail and go do some stuff. It was ridiculous. I jumped in on a game and these guys were up to level 41 on normal. We managed to move up to 43, but the thing that sucks is your power weapons like brute and torque bow don't even seem to do much damage compared to your regular default guns.

Fun game.

I played through 16 today by myself, just being bored I guess. Went through 50 on Normal with some buddies when it first came out. You really need to have 5 guys who know what they are doing to make it easy. When you get past about 30, the power weapons become useless, because it takes 4-5 shots with each for a kill.
