Gears of War 3

Who's getting the game? I'm getting the Limited Edition Xbox 360 on September 20. I'm planning on playing hoard online but I don't really like the versus mode for that game. Let me know if you're getting it so we can exchange gamer tags and play online.

Wow, I didn't realize it came out this early.

September - December is going to take all my money.

I had to cancel Battlefield 3 and Rage from my pre-orders because I don't have much money. I kept Gears 3 and Zelda: Skyward Sword.

Reasons to be happy about GOW3

I just placed my pre-order yesterday on Amazon because offering 20 bucks in store credit, and already had 10 from Portal 2!

Anyhow, I need some co-op partners since my friends wussed out after the beta!

I just got and played through Gears 2 the other day (it was $15 on xbl) so I may get this one too, and I can co-op with you Earl.

Obviously I'll be around, I work the midnight release.

Earl and I beat most of the co-op together last game.

Same! Earl helped me complete the co-op campaign for Gears 2 on Insane. I might just splurge and get the year of Live and Gears 2 and take that out of my general spending money.

Just add me on live. I think I gave you my gamertag already, if not, just send me a PM.

I'm getting my GOW3 console come next Thursday. I still went to the midnight launch with my friend. So who got the game? I got to play one round of multiplayer and one round of horde and they were good. Horde was better because I suck at multiplayer on this game. lol But that could change eventually. I look forward to playing with some of you guys online.

The console didn't come out the same day as the game?

It did but I still have to pay a bit of it and I get paid tomorrow. So that's why I couldn't get it on launch day. Anyways... did you get it?

I rented it, and GameFly managed to get it to me on release day (kudos to them). Not a Gears fan, but figured I'd play a little bit of it. Got nothing else in my queue.

Well the end of Act 3... yeah the end of Act 3... will save thoughts for when more people play

TheSlyMoogle · 09-22-2011, 07:43 AM

I beat the game tuesday around 8 PM EST.

Honestly, I was disappointed in the campaign. Now having finished the trilogy, was thinking back on the games in general, and the story fucking sucks.

The multiplayer is badass though. It's like Gears 1.

I haven't even played horde or beast mode yet though.

It took you the entire trilogy to realize the story in Gears is weak?
