2 hours for me, told my wife that its on the menu all tonight!
Are the gold weapons better? Or are they just pallet swaps like in all other games?
Got my copy of the game at Toys R Us. Got the $15 gift certificate. Gonna use that to get Left 4 Dead.
I wonder if it is possible if I go to CC, buy the game, get the 1600 MS points and then try to return it a few days later. Are they going to require me to bring back the points? Prolly, but it doesn’t hurt to try.
so… u can only have one golden weapon at a time?? I got the golden lancer, but i use lancer so… yea.
LOL i saw Dumba on lastnight when i got and started play’n campain, if i knew he was in hord with srk’ers i would’a joined in… So i played like 3-4 hours of story mode this last night /this morning good shit. Beat the contra level lol very cool, i’ll be online tonight, the story can wait. So far my fav new weapon is the motar, i hope to god i can use it in multi player:badboy:
I’ll be on MP in a bit hit me up for some games I haven’t done horde yet:sweat:
BTW hammerburst is the best weapon in the game it’s just as strong maybe a little bit stronger then it was before but now IT’S AUTOMATIC!:rock:
I bought this bad boy today, will be on around 8pm
is it me or does it feel much slower than the first gears?
add me up babyjesus9
I’m still busy with VC. I’ll probably pick it up either tommorrow afternoon or sunday.
What are these little achievement-like things that keep popping up? I’ve had several different ones, but no idea what they are and how I get them.
They’re in game achievements I think I get think notice how they popup when you do something like if you clock the tickers back 15 times you get one or if you kill enough enemies with a single weapon.
That’s what I figured, but I just don’t know what I do to get 'em. It’s not mentioned in the manual unless I missed it.
They’re “progress reports” on your achievements. It let’s you know how far along you are on your achievements.
^ Ah, ok. That one where you kill 100k enemies will take forever O_O
Game is too dope. The online mode is great.
I just got it myself, borrowing it from my job. >.>
If it’s good enough, I’ll buy it.
Someone join me in wingman.
Not as long as you may think. Some people already have it. There are certain points in the campaign mode where you can exploit methods to rack up a lot of kills. I believe the best method now is something like 100 kills per minute.
Even so, it would still take quite a while.
This game is great.
Canadians may have noticed the bundled artbook in the LE is in French. Some people got a softcover English version, but no hardcover.
I called Microsoft about this. They told me that this is a retailer issue. However, I had already called the retailer and was told this is not their issue. Which I tend to believe; it’s happening to just about every Canadian purchaser of GoW2 LE. That’s a shipping issue, from the publisher. I pressed further, and was told that apparently Canadian retailers ordered the French artbook. Couldn’t get any more help than that.
Also, there’s another issue: the gold-plate LANCER (not the Hammerburst, but the Lancer code that comes in all GoW2 LE boxes) is not downloading for some people. It’s a known issue and Microsoft told me to try downloading it again in 12-24 hours.
EDIT - I called the Gamestop back about the art book. They’ll try to contact their Microsoft rep. I’m going to try contacting the Gamestop head office in Canada. Later. After more Gears.
thx for the add peeps, more ppl add me: Da Big Punisher and we’ll tear it up
