tom_hargreaves Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 It does look rather sexual. Can't wait for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacingRed Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Theres so many games coming out in the next few months. Its ridiculous. I'm budgeting though, and Gears 2 is the only release day purchase I'll be making. Everything else I'll get second hand. But I want in on this. Especially looking forward to co-op with mates. Hope they've managed to get 4-player in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_hargreaves Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Yeh there is a lot of games coming out. That's why i've just sold the Wii, I hardly played it and will be using the money to buy a couple of the big titles plus buying a couple out of my pocket. Picked up FIFA 09 last night from a friend who got it early because he works at a Game store Absolutely fanstastic is the only word to describe. The First FIFA game i've liked since 99'. I'd recommend it to anybody who had any doubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you play as just one player a la the advert and have 22 multiplayer online 11 a-side? I've wanted this since the beginning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 My copy arrived this morning and I have been unable to play it. It's agony! My wife has her friends (and their children) over and the house is full of 3 year olds. I don't think they'd appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppetboy Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I saw Zavvi is selling it for £35 for a few weeks, advert in today's Metro (free London newspaper for all you non-Londoners ) Sponge, let us know what it's like when you eventually get to play...

RacingRed Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 I picked it up yesterday and got started on the campaign last night. Good things so far, much nicer environments than the first one. New weapons are pretty neat. My only concern so far is that I haven't really been challenged by a difficult section yet. And I've started off on the 'Hardcore' difficulty setting. Hoping it gets a bit more taxing or it won't last long. Haven't tried the multiplayer yet, waiting for some friends to get it first.

AMG01 Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Is this an Xbox only gig? Or do us PC boys get a go? Looks pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacingRed Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 AMG01, the lead designer gave an interview in development that was pretty explicit that Epic games would not be making a PC version. That said, another team could be given the job of porting it to PC at a later date. Microsoft doesn't own Epic so they may well have forked out for a period of exclusivity to boost sales on the 360. It could happen, but not anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I've just completed the trainining section. It's just as good as I remember the first one being. I'm going to start the SP game, see how much I can get done before the wife and kids get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacingRed Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 I enjoyed the campaign, but Horde is where its at. Even on your own its cool pitting yourself against impossible odds. With four other players its a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacingRed Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 So is anyone still playing Gears 2 regularly? I have space on my friends list and am looking for some people to play Horde with. I'm usually on between 11:00pm and 1:00 am, when the house has gone to bed.

tom_hargreaves Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I thought the single player was great bar a few levels that just dragged. I'm not really playing the Multiplayer anymore, there's to many bugs and irritating random kills. The shotgun is just so unpredictable that it's put off loads of my mates playing it. You can shoot someone at point blank range, for nothing to happen, then the person you shot at shoots you with the same gun and you get torn to pieces. Chainsaw kills are so easy it's a joke. Which is great, until someone does it to you. Even though there has been an apparent update to fix the 5 minute waits to get into games, the wait times are still the same for me. Horde is good but very quickly gets boring. It's also frustratingly hard at higher levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
