I'm so cool I don't even need to be on that list.

But you know, I've sent a request. Just in case.

I'll be back for this for sure. Nightly if possible. I've been kind of avoiding Gears 1 and waiting for Gears 2 to hit to really get back into it. See you guys on Friday night!

Well bollocks. This morning my 360 started giving me disc read issues and it's out of warranty. Super suckage.

One more day baby.

Hypothetical situation.

Let's say you were to ask the people at 7 Eleven if they "sell videogames." They may answer in the affirmative, and then hand you a stack of games, from which you may choose what you like. They might sell this game to you even if there is a sticker on it that expressly tells them not to do so.

Oh, yeah, and there's a picture of two copies of Gears 2 on his desk.

Just thought y'all might like to know.

I pre-ordered from Amazon and sent my FR to the Clan account. I'm sure everyone will be playing Friday night, so see you guys then.

I can't believe it's upon us already. I can't buy it yet, but I will rent it Friday. Keep an eye out for me, you may need the target practice.

Mine should be with me tomorrow.

Just got the call from Gamestop to pick it up tomorrow night. Woot!

Never before has an object expressed my inner self so fully:

I think I am most excited about the horde (zombie?) mode. Gears can get so competitive it will be nice to have an online mode where everyone is a "brother in arms."

Not sure if this has been linked to:

The Seven Deadly Sins of Horde Mode

Wrap it in a towel and run it until it gives you the 3 RROD - that's covered under the extended warrenty.

Nice.

For those who missed it the first time, in the other thread. (and to self promote....slightly)

Here's our highlight real from a couple months ago. Just know, If everything goes according to plan, I will be recording on Friday.....so put on your gameface.

Get excited. 2 days.

Probably don't even have to do that. Just tell them you have 3RROD on the phone. There is a serious disconnect between Support (India) and Refurb (Asia? via Mexico).

That was awesome!

Computer generated Ashley from Texas kindly called to let me know to get in line to pick up Gears 2 at... 10:00 p.m. tomorrow, with release at midnight? WTF? What system requires 2 hours?

Got the same call, she sounded hot.

I think they said 10pm because you're "allowed" to start lining up at 10 pm. At least the sign at the nearest GameStop says 10pm.

Gamestop is supposed to (based on GS headquarters) throw some kind of party at midnight openings. Whether your local store does this or not is up to them. Mine said they have too many midnight openings to throw a party for each one. Don't know what they will do for Gears 2.

Preordered in full via Best Buy online. In store Pickup in Back Bay. Hope they have enough copies.
