Gears of War 2 hype thread (Nov 7)

Postby ctrl_alt_defeat on Thu Sep 25, 2008 8:01 pm

Two years ago I started the Gears 1 hype thread here and it ended up as the biggest thread in Console Gaming. Let's do it again. Three weeks and change.

Confirmed so far: Horde mode (5 players vs waves of Locust), 5v5 multiplayer, chainsaw duels, meatshields, giant Locust everything.

Hoping they fix the host advantage in ranked. Gears 1 online was a coin toss on who got the host.
I test games for a living. No, it is not as fun as it sounds.

Limited Edition with the art book and the Cog tags, preordered. No regrets.

"Bigger, better and more badass." Cliff's words, not mine. That man would be great in sales.

Rumour is the Gears 2 disc fits on the hard drive once the New Xbox Experience update is out. Two years of disc noise, gone.
