I only saw a guy do that once. I can see how that could be abused though.

Yeah. They stick the walls and just waited for us to go to them. We grew wary of course, but just sitting outside waiting for them to come out while they waited for us to come out was boring as ****. So you see we could do the same shit but then we would have an endless stalemate which sucks. I am all for winning games, but people are so desperate to accomplish it.

Right now I had a match that lagged like **** eventhough 3 guys on my team quit.

The multiplayer is starting to feel like torture, and I am starting to wonder why I keep playing it.

How so...

Instead of answering questions like a good sequel it just made tons more. There was no real emotion pull either. Certain characters died useless deaths that did not drive the plot any further, and it was as a whole extremely cliche'. But it fits in with disappointing sequels nicely on the Xbox systems in terms of "better game play but weaker story". Look no farther than Halo 2, Fable 2, and KotOR 2.

And LotR Two Towers, which didn't answer much questions either.

The fact of the matter is that this game was set up to be a trilogy, I'd bet anything on it, at least a Trilogy. The middle game in a trilogy is never supposed to answer any of the questions. That's why it's usually the least popular.

In your typical trilogy the second sets up the third. What the hell did this one set up? I just don't get it, the whole point of this game was to take the battle to the Locust and prevent the sinking of the city. And those who have beaten it saw a clear 180 by Fenix and corp. Driving tanks and Brumaks don't automatically make a story better. Where Halo 2 was epic in story and not size I view Gears two as epic in size and lacking in story.(No pun intended)

I finally played meat flag with full teams. After yelling at my noobie teammates for not defending me while I was taking the meatflag to the score we managed to pull a win. It is very fun and a bit ruthless since the flag fights back ROFL.

Spoiler:
I remember constantly wondering when Benjamin Carmine was going to die. The helmet COGs being redshirts and all. I was surprised to find out how long he managed to survive and how much he improved given he started as a total rookie. Here is to hoping that the 3rd Carmine is an utter badass.

I couldn't stop myself from laughing when that happened. It was portrayed so comical.

Yeah it had more questions pop up but obviously we're going to find out more in the next game, and no there wasn't much emotional pull but they tried and frankly that's about as emotional as you can get with gears you just kind of have to put yourself in Dom's shoes in that situation and then it can become more emotional. Though I must say I'm not sure how it was cliche at all...

BRUMAK RIDING IS AWESOME!!!!!!!

It's pretty much painfully easy and I don't think the game should've ended that way

haha it didn't 😛

It ended with a much EASIER way with the

Spoiler:
killing of that brumak, you basically rode around the brumak shooting the hammer at it, I don't think I got hit once lol now THAT was easy, they could have ended it better, I agree.

The cliche' approach to Marcus Fenix.

You mean making him cool...?

Oh and badass?

And wearing a bandana...wait...

Its great to headshot a guy with the Torque Bow and have the same arrow stick another guy for a double kill.

I'd say replace the 'c' with a 't' and you've got it.

I don't care if the Brumak riding was easy, it was still awesome. Having a Brumak pitting against a Corpser was intense.

does any 1 hav a extra golden gun code i can hav 4 free i will b gratefull

I think you can only get the golden lancer if you preorder the game. If you didn't preorder then bye bye gold gun.

I thought the final boss battle was cool. It felt better fighting a giant mutated Brumak than fighting General RAAM.
