    Picked up gears 2 with the remote tank from best buy . Sweet. Surprised by the size of it.

    I got gipped out of the free XBL 1600 point card at Circuit City. The store only got in 4 point cards and 200+ copies of GoW2...hmmm. They said they would call me when they get more in (the regular 1600 point cards don't qualify). The sucky part is my receipt says I bought the game for $40.00 and 1600 point card for $19.99. So if I try and return the game, they'll only give me $40 (yet I paid $59.99). This is borderline bait and switch IMO.

    Circuit City is basically in the middle of going out of business, you'll probably never see the card. I'd be surprised if they gave you a refund either. I'd take it back and do a chargeback on your credit card.

    I preordered the LE version and picked it up just a little while ago. Got a date night tonight so probably won't get to open it until tomorrow, but REALLY looking forward to it!

    Default hmmm...

    Must beat Resistance 2 first. I suspect Gears 2 is going to be the better game so I am trying to get through Resistance 2 before getting engrossed in it...can't wait to try out Horde...

    I got the LE from Best Buy(preordered last month), so I got the RC Tank, it is indeed remote control. I'm not sure whether or not to open it up. Hopefully I will get a chance to play tonight.

    I was wondering the same thing. Amazon still sells it for $140.00

    In case anyone wants to know, the achievements that say "(ANY MODE)", can be completed in local split screen multiplayer, so just grab that 2nd controller and have at it, if you so wish. My friend just told me this, I just tried it out on Chainsaw dueling, it does indeed work.

    Also, this game is pretty damn awesome.

    I got it, I figured Id be a COG for Halloween next year. Its big and seems pretty sturdy. It uses C cell batteries, which is a crime in this day and age. It will compliment my waste of money room next to my Metal Slug Pachislo machine and Aliens Vs Predator Chess set.

    This game is so badass.

    In an effort to make this post relevant, I'm having far more fun with this game than part 1 for some reason. It is masterpiece through and through.

    Good game, little to linear for me. I can play about 20-30 min then start to get bored, but want to play it again the next day.

    This game is great so far from what little i've played. I havent been able to put down Fallout 3 though. To many great games, so little time.

    Yeah, I did and it came in today. It's way more impressive than I imagined. Huge and pretty heavy. The chainsaw noise is pretty loud and effective and it just feels great. I was originally seconds away from canceling but I'm very happy I didn't.

    Horde mode is pretty much ruling my life.

    Is anyone else experiencing extremely slow matchmaking times?

    Ugh, this matchmaking issue is really dissapointing.
