Gears of War

I'm getting my copy from EB games.

Yeah, don't remind me about XBL. 🙁

But it is written in our destiny that we are to meet each other in a bloody match. 😛

What time tomorrow do they think they'll have it in? It's weird, so many different stores are saying so many different things. Some say the 8th, some say the 7th, some say the 9th.

But your plans for tomorrow sound awesome, meatlovers pizza+gears+soda = heaven.

I have class tomorrow evening, going to be a looooonnnnng class.

The ship date is tomorrow, so when the stores actually get it varies. Most of the time, the game doesn't actually get into the store until the day after it ships. I know my store will have it tomorrow, but we likely won't get our shipment in until 4-5pm.

I would say tommorrow as well. I check for any midnight releases but none of my local gamestores will be open so late. Nor will they have the game so early.

BF I know what you're saying. Hang in there....you're bound to make the A list for your efforts.

I've heard that the game has been shipping over the last few days and some stores actually have the game sitting in the back waiting for tomorrow.

I just saw a live showing of this game being played on Attack of the Show and drool

I've never purchased a shooter but this game looks very good and the controls and the camera movement and... drool

So yeah. I can see why yall are so excited and what the big hoopla is about.

I'm definitely more assured in my decision on getting a Xbox360 for christmas, not being a big xbox fan myself.

So ummmm.....yeah......... And I like how it's not the type of shooter where all you see is the gun in front of you. I definitely wouldn't like that.

I'll definitely be able to get into it since you can actually see your character running around and the such and dodging and rolling and ducking and running and shooting and chain sawing.

If only I had that Xbox360 now.

The host of Attack of the Show, Kevin Pereira played the game on easy at first and got through it in about 7 hours and then went back and played on normal and said that it was a completely different experience and much harder and finished within 10-11 hrs.

Have fun tomorrow you lucky b@st@rds. tongue

Anata Wa Wakarimasu Ka.....

I can't friggin wait to get this game... I could easily buy it tommorrow but my b-day is in a month and Christmas less than 20 days after that.. so I think I'll save my money for something else......

Like the legendary collectors edition of Halo 3 droolio

I hate those B-Day's right next to Christmas. Mine is in January and I don't get any good stuff for my birthday being that they blow all of their money on me during Christmas.

D@mn me and my expensive Christmas lists. But I won't stop and I Shalln't stop. I'll use them for all the money they're worth. If I don't get it all for Christmas, who's to say somebody else won't get it all for Christmas and use up their money instead of me..........like my foolish sister.

Yeah..........Gears of War 😕 I'm getting it for Christmas as well.

Ugh, today is going sooo slow.

Is it still Monday? Damn it.

TOMORROW!!!

So why would you worried about getting an XBOX 360 without having Broadband?

I'm not worried, just disappointed that I'll have a Xbox360 without Broadband, therefore no XboxLIVE.

What I posted on here concerning it was just to see who else was in the same predicament as me. That's all.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

I see....yeah, its annoying not having Broadband because of the Arcade and Demo's, but I just have XBOX Silver and I use it, but if i didnt have it, it wouldnt be a problem.

If Gears Of War MP is any good, I might get Gold. It's just annoying that PC online games are free and its hard to go XBOX Live when they'res alot of good online PC games like BF2 and Steam.

So anyways, how is Gears Of War for all the lucky people in the States?

Well, I looked at Gamerankings.com and critics are giving very good reviews of the game.

Could this be the game that stunts PS3's growth like GTA3 did awhile back for the PS2?

Maybe, it looks that good.

The reviews are pouring in!

9.6 at Gamespot
9.4 at IGN
10 at 1up.com

... more to come!

Double Post

OXM USA gives Gears a 10/10; their second game EVER to get a 10... not even the Halos got 10's (cough BULLSHIT cough).

Nice 😱

You guys should have read the Gamespot system wars forum, it was sooo funny. For a few months now, the main topic was that Gears was going to flop; all you saw was threads saying "Flop of War LOlOLOl" and Sony fanboys ranting on about how the game would not be AAA (9.0 or higher). There was even one thread where the topic was named "Gears of War will never get a 9.6 or above on Gamespot." And Gears of War got a 9.6 on Gamespot.

The PS3 fanboys are crying this day.
