I am so excited for this game. XD Gameplay looks a LOT better, and they are getting rid of that damn shotgun trick on xbox live! ^.^ (by shotgun trick, I mean when noobs will run up to you with a shotgun and press a to roll next to you, then get a cheap kill)

Besides that though, I just hope the game's music doesen't use the same 2 songs in different variations for the whole soundtrack like in GOW 1, or I am going to throw a fit. I know it's kind of retarded to rate a game based on music, but I absolutley HATE when video game music composers do that. <_<

Hey guys, now that the game is out, don't forget about spoiler tags. xD Seriously, my dumbass freind on xbox live already spoiled some stuff for me already......>=(

Did you get the soundtrack?
There were at least 20 songs used man.

Can't wait for this game either.

Yeah, I have the soundtrack. So maybe I'm exaggerating a LITTLE, but I kept getting this feeling that with the exception of maybe 5 or 6 songs, everything else was variants. XD

I like how they came up with the idea of a meat shield. :P It's gonna be funny using downed enemies as shields against their allies.....

Doesn't that happen for most games? They have a certain main tune and base 75% of the other songs on that melody?

Unfortunatley, it happens. Especially in halo, cause I could whip out my phone and show you songs that have the variants. xD They aren't really bad though, so it's acceptable I guess. :heh: Unlike in games like zelda where you are usually hearing the main theme for the 509.45th time. XD

It's because of the meme "Coletrain" from the storyline. Get it? "The Coletrain"?

Oh, I totally forgot that was his last name....still isn't that funny though. XD

I hope the GOW 1 map packs are compatible with GOW 2, I don't want to re-purchase stuff........:bleh:

Wait! I didn't say that right! XD I meant that they should have them as DLC or something, because gridlock and canals are badass. :shifty: That, and the fact that those are the only maps that work with annex in my opinion. O_O;

If you watch the preview, they revamped Gridlock, but I'm not sure about Canal.

*looks at your location* Aren't these kind of games banned in AU because of the radical gov't? :P

What? Right, right. I knew that. XD

Anyway, they are starting to sell GOW 2 merchandise in hot topic. =D So I went to buy the shirt, and it ended up being 2 sizes too big. xD (i usually get 1x cause they shrink down to like, half the size in my dryer :P) So now I'm pissed that I can't show my excitment for GOW 2 until I can get a new shirt. T_T;

DO NOT VIEW SPOILER TAGS IF YOU HAVEN'T BEATEN THE GAME YET! @_@

Aww, I just got to the part where you find Maria. I almost cried. :cry: That was a really sad cutscene...

man, gears of war was one of the best co-op shooters out there. They should totally have more of these types of games. STORYLINE CO-OP SHOOTERS

Cuz thats whats fun with a group of friends on lan or on xbox. Not just deathmatch all the time and single person story.


Cant wait for this game to come out for pc :P

COD 5 isn't that great...COD 4 was awesome because it was a fresh, new idea: modern combat, and an original plot based on some history events. Now, they went right back to fucking WW II....when are companies going to realize that WW II has been done to death in movies, games, tv...hell, just about ANY media you can think of. XD

That clip was a very funny way of summarizing the game's plot in about 2 minutes. xD

Here is a gamer's aphorism I thought of yesterday. XD

"By the time I have decided to get my lazy ass off the game and do some homework, I will have found a multiplayer game on GOW 2's matchmaking." :P

Seriously...I can play 3 rounds of jelly car on my phone before finding a team. That takes about 10 mintes.....wtf? O_O;

They fixed that problem 2 days ago though. I find a game in 4 seconds now.

Hey, does anybody want to have an ichigos horde mode day? I think that would be kind of badass if we could do this. :P

Most people already finished Horde... I know I'm over it >.>

The hype is kinda gone for me too, but horde is still fun. :P I still need the achievements...xD
