Working the midnight launch. Lancers ahoy

So people dress up for Gears launches?

They called me about the midnight launch, and the mall is literally three minutes away, but eh. Will just get it tomorrow.

I loved Gears 1, but yesterday i tried to play Gears 2, never played it but it's just so boring. I got up to that first vehicle section and shut it off. I kinda want Gears 3 though.

I worked the midnight release for this and picked it up after it was over. I also put together this corrugate and it was the biggest pain in the ass ever.

Don't forget to buy the $30 weapon skin pack.

I played for about 2 hours or so and it's a blast! Horde mode is a whole lot better with construction building and what-not. Beast mode isn't working though. Versus mode is eh...rolling shotguns and that's about it. Screw versus.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #15 on:** September 20, 2011, 07:50:56 AM »

Picking this up after work

Diunx · « **Reply #16 on:** September 20, 2011, 08:16:43 AM »

I should pick this up, it would really help me with my insomnia.

Brehvolution · « **Reply #17 on:** September 20, 2011, 10:10:50 AM »

Picking this up on lunch. Wifey is going to be coaching a swim meet out of town so I should be able to get 3-4 hours of co-op in tonight.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #21 on:** September 20, 2011, 03:37:09 PM »

The story is mway more fleshed in this one. Near ebd of act 1. While ir lacks the freshness if gears one ir has so dar given me more variety then last two gear games.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #24 on:** September 20, 2011, 05:06:13 PM »

Epic has really put a lot of effort into this one, stopped playing for today halfway through ACT 2.

So... this game is pretty slow early on. Which is ironic since they gave the characters a boost of speed in walking speed, etc.

I can't believe I am spending a whole level exploring Cole's hometown. I hope this becomes relevant... soon

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #33 on:** September 21, 2011, 02:24:59 AM »

Imho it looks better then both other gears.

Yes, it is special especially the lighting.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #35 on:** September 21, 2011, 02:51:25 AM »

and?

Quote from: The Sceneman

No! ... you have to read the novels. They explain why every character in the game is a giant, ugly man.

At least I assume so.

On topic: reviewers praised Gears 2 for it's 'storytelling', but the way the game handled 'deep' subjects: GEARS 2 SPOILERS IF THERE IS SOMEONE READING THIS BOARD WHO GIVES A SHIT

spoiler (click to show/hide)
the whole Dom and his wife thing. It played out like sub-par adolescent fan-fiction.
[close]

yeah, the game is for if you want to portray a roided up, giant man and kill shit. And thats fun! But jut don't take it seriously. Theres no point. Just have fun.

seriously are those kind of joke funny only when evilbore members do them and they stop being so when penny arcade does them? :'(

No, they're funny when they're actually funny. That comic isn't. HTH

The Sceneman · « **Reply #45 on:** September 21, 2011, 12:09:43 PM »

Firstly: I never said my post was any good. neither did any other EB poster, My post had no "quote

"'s.

the whole diff is, the Penny Arcade comic only alluded to the aesthetic of the games, not the ethos which I was intelligently 'roasting' in my post.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #46 on:** September 21, 2011, 12:12:28 PM »

I don't even get it. Can someone explain it?

I like Halo but I never thought the campaign could touch gears. Halo campaigns are kinda boring honestly. Although I prefer the MP in Halo by a wide margin.

OptimoPeach · « **Reply #56 on:** September 21, 2011, 07:03:25 PM »

As someone who wasn't particularly blown away by the campaigns in the first two, will I find this at least mildly fun? Any new guns? Any new gameplay mechanics period? Is the end just another giant cock tease like GoW 2? How many shitty vehicle segments will I have to suffer?

Thinking about renting it on Saturday so I can co-op through it with my friend after we watch the UFC -- 2x the dudebro factor!

demi · « **Reply #57 on:** September 21, 2011, 07:31:09 PM »

There are new guns... nothing revolutionary.

And Act 1 has been a snore. No vehicle sections so far.

I would rent it, don't buy it, if you don't care for Gears online.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #58 on:** September 22, 2011, 09:31:48 AM »

Beast mode is awesome
Horde mode is awesome, pretty hard too
Versus is awesome

I only did the first half hour of the campaign and it seems like a slow start.

demi · « **Reply #59 on:** September 22, 2011, 09:33:03 AM »

Viscen, play Road to Ruin with me stealth, I need a coop partner.
