Gears of War II - First impressions

Nov 07, 2008 09:19

I jumped on the Gears bandwagon, I haven't even played the original but the pre-hype surrounding this product sold me, barely saw any footage or coverage though.  The power of brand names eh ( Read more... )

I looooooooooooove the combat is gow2, also did in gow1, only tried co-op so far, it's awesome, only thing that annoyed me is that I have a lot of 'jaggies' (I think that is what they call it) from the graphics. At least at the first levels, later it got better but in the first few I hardly had any straight line.

I'm really shit, Ecko invited me to a game last night but I couldn't find my mic, I was performing the worse everytime so after around 20 minutes they decided to kick me out lol. Just as they did that I found my mic and I was about to gracefully leave and declare my crappiness, I was in stitches after

my bad. i wasn't the leader, but it was a group of us that know each other from school and we were trying to get another kid we knew in too.

The game itself, at least on multiplayer is different then the first. Takes a bit getting use to but I'm getting it down.

Burger, Mcclane, you and me should get on horde onetime.

Yeah I figured, kept callin each other fag's and such lol. I didn't mind like I said I thought it was hilarious but hopefully I'll skill up next time, I'm a little better now with the controls but I need to observe player tactics. The main thing I dislike so far is the chainsaw duels because I hate button bashing lol.

We'll have to hook up on the 19th, Trox. I installed the leaked NXE so I can't go online until then. I use an Elite as my primary console(the one I NXE'd) and have a Pro unit as a back up, so I can always use that to play online if I wanted to. However, I'm not entirely sure what would happen to my achievements, since I've gotten a lot in a variety of games since the Elite has been offline. So I'm just going to play it safe until the 19th. Horde mode is going to be insane!

For sure I'm down, hopefully evil timezones won't get the best of me but I'm down for a Horde session!
