Gears Of War 2

Recommended Posts

Mines been shipped from GAME but after playing through the first game again im not too excited by it.

 

Actually the more I think about it the less I really want it, of course it's a desirable game but then I haven't finished Fable 2 yet... and I will probably have GH:WT on Friday anyway so meh... sod it, I'll keep my Play order, ride the wave of hype a little later and yeah... it'll be all the more sweeter when it actually arrives. :smile:

Thing about Gears is, its only really, really great the first time. After that? Its a little tiresome. Besides, Gears 2 is supposed to be utterly amazing.

I should really get round to playing the first one. I'm sitting on the fence as to whether I should get this or not and at the moment, I'm thinking I might just buy the first one, see what it's like and then decide based on that because I really don't want to shell out £40 for a game and not like it. And seeing as the first one is cheap now, it seems like the best way to do things.

 

From the footage I've seen of this, it doesn't look all to great a game, but then I haven't played it or the original yet. The online looked rather laggy shall we say, especially when players were actually turning to shoot one another and because of the lag ended up facing the opposite direction from where they should be aiming.

:/ not for me, I've completed it with jayseven about 5 times, and again with Nami.

I'm actually quite surprised by gears, I quite enjoy watching it and if I could aim properly I'd play it. Interesting.

The more the merrier. I said I was going to cancel shopto.net because they haven't even got games in the day before release ready to send.

Well, my post just arrived, and it appears that Royal Fail have forgotten to post my copy of GoW2. I'm going away this weekend, so I won't get to play it till Monday either. :/

 

Ah well, at least this'll give me some more time to play the Left 4 Dead demo, and to complete RA3.

Getting to level 50 in Horde will be a challenge and a half. Me and Rob played a little last night and it got pretty naughty at level 8-9.
