The Official Gears of War Thread

Tomorrow's the day.

And they better not pull this "Ships tomorrow - in stores Wednesday" shit, either.

My trigger finger is super itchy.

Thats the case for me, I'm a filthy liar

Just got back from GameStop and it's going to be delivered Wednesday morning before they open. Doesn't matter though, tomorrow is Guitar Hero 2 and that's almost as good as sex. I can wait a day for Gears.

i read from a few different sources that it ships tommorow and will be in stores this wednesday, I hope Im wrong though........must have it tommorow!!!

Don't worry guys, I got it.

This makes me want Gears 400x more.

That's funny, it makes me want it 400x less. Everyone is different...

I am having a hard time getting excited about this or Resistance, or even COD 3. I guess I'm just tired of blowing people's heads off. I'll be skipping all three of these titles.

The manager at EB told me that he would have the game tomorrow. He had to go pick it up though. I'm not sure from where, but I know that FedEx and UPS distribution centers are not that far away....

Of course I preordered at another store and they have not yet called to say it would be available for pickup. They did call me and tell me FFV would be available tomorrow.

Later,
Trebuken

I'll probably be up, so I may hit Wal-Mart a bit after midnight.

With any luck...

Aris from gamestop has not called me yet and she always called when the preorder was headed into the stores.(with the exception of fear that had the release date bumped up a week) I am starting to get nervous that it will arrive on Wed.

gears of war got an review its from xplay(which i hate )
http://www.g4tv.com/pile_player.aspx?video_key=13749

but it got a kickass review

[Lothars]

I can't wait for this game I am not sure how good this game will be

it looks amazing and I have alot of faith in Cliffy B so it should be all good.

I am dissapointed that there are no more reviews for it yet, i really want to read some other than xplay's review.

I had that idea too. Turns out my local Walmart won't be getting their shipment in until about 1:00 PM tomorrow.

[Princess-Isabela]

[diskoboy]

Graphic and Sound get a perfect 10 over at IGN.

Thanks Unreal Engine 3!

No - I didn't make it to Wal-Mart, last night. I fell asleep. About to go on the hunt for it.

[sickdrummer420]

if anyone manages to find it today, please post up your thoughts about it

[gepeto]

I went to at least 5 various stores( games & electronics )and everyone of them had at least 4 to 6 people walking in asking if gears came in. Not counting phone calls.

I haven't seen this type of frenzy for a game in awhile. I predict this game maybe hard top find for the first week or two for those who haven't preordered.

[jajaja]

Is the co-op localy in splitscreen?

[diskoboy]

Got it!!!! :P

My opinions will be posted in an hour or so..

[sickdrummer420]

i know its a little late in the day but im heading out in search of it

[diskoboy]

Cleared the 1st stage.

I can only manage to muster up 2 words at this time:

"Holy Shit!"

This game kills Halo. Sorry Halo fans, but it does. The 360 finally has it's killer app.

[Joker T]

I'm pretty pissed right now.

I called Game Crazy the other day to make sure they would have it Tuesday and they said they did.

So I drive up there and now they say they aren't getting it till Wednesday.

Oh well.

[gepeto]

Got it!!!! :P

My opinions will be posted in an hour or so..

Where?
