Gears of War

The Torque Bow is a pain in the ass when you play insanity. I'd swear I got killed more often setting up the thing and aiming at the enemy. It's better to keep the sniper rifle with you as much as possible.

Anyone done a triple team and chainsaw an enemy? Friggin beautiful!

It also seems that the Locust can arc the torque bow to get you behind cover in insane.

Insane is suppose to be hard. That's something you would brag to your friends about once you beat it. Me and my friend are going through insane via Xbox Live.

So you can do Co-Op online as well with strangers and people you know?

Do you need like a special friend code or something to play with certain people that you know?

Anyone can join in a co-op but just 1 person unless you do a private game match

what's hilarious, is grabbing the grenades, and rushing to the other teams side instantly (on rooftops) cause once they see you, they all start rolling around freaking out shooting random spots in air, and it leaves you open chances to stick them. of course it stops working after the ...i say 3rd or 4th round...

So you're playing Co-Op with somebody from online that you don't know?

Can you talk over headphones?

Umm... isn't that the entire premise of Live? Playing with strangers and, ya' know... talking?

😛

I've only playec co-op with my buddy in real life, we beat the whole thing together on hardcore, we're going to do insane this weekend, probably.

It's a lot of fun.

I was under the impression that Co-Op itself was just two people in the same room using the same tv screen with 2 controllers playing at the same time.

I know about the other online play, with up to 8 people killing each other, but I thought that was all there was.

You see, I've never really been able to play online. No Broadband in my area and no Xbox360 yet anyway.

And some online games don't have the option to talk, so I was just asking. I'm not experienced in the whole matter, so forgive my ignorance.

All Xbox Live games have the option to talk. It's a big part of live.

It's both good and bad, really. Good because it allows you to talk strategically with your team in games, tell them where an enemy is or what the plan should be.

Bad because usually the voice chat option is just used for making fart sounds and calling people "noobs", or racial slurs.

I see.

There've been other Co-op games to play across live (that Splinter Cell for the Xbox comes to mind).

It's not really a new concept.

I don't know about usually, but that is some of the time.

never played xbox cs either. theres no way you never met people like that if you played cs, unless you only played a bit of it. i was die hard at that game.

yup ur right, i played the game, do own it, but rarely played...at first i played for like 2 days nonstop, but then i got addicted to quake3 again. lol

i played it religiously for 2 or 3 months and believe me, the annoying mic c*nts were definitely a part of that experience, not the best part, but still there.
