Underoath, please stop the mass PM'ing of game news. Not only is it late but I can really do without the empty "threats" of being deleted from your "exclusive" friend list. I really couldn't care less.

I've sent two, I've already removed the people. So, I'm assuming that you would like to join them?

I can definitively say that this game is every bit as visually impressive live as it is in screenshots.

The MS people at E 4 All were (trying to) crack down on people taking screenshots of live play (even though there are several videos out already). Oddly, they didn't seem to give a **** about the 12 year olds playing. Way to stick it to the ESRB, Microsoft!

If I was big on shooters (and had a 360), I'd get this. Unfortunatly, neither are true (I most likely won't be getting KZ2 or R2 either).

But yeah, I was diggin the Horde mode maps.

It definitely has 5 player Horde which is when you just go fight enemies together. (I think)

4 Player Co-Op is pretty likely imo for the campaign.

The Horde I saw had at least 7 players over LAN, so I assume it may go up to 8.

Basically I sent out two messages to all my friends to let them know I will be removing them if they do not get Gears of War 2. He seems to be offended by that...so I removed him.

Hmm, ok definitely is something I'm going to avoid because it sounds like a fight waiting to happen.

Submission looks very interesting and fun for a LAN party, but not promising for something like Xbox Live. I can't wait for Wingman though. My friend and I can't wait to get a kick out this!!

Just 29 more days...

EDIT: I believe there's a new developer diary up on the official website. It focuses on multiplayer. (Second slide)

That's been known for a while now. It's for everything -- campaign, co-op, multiplayer, etc.

I just watched my first video of the game where it was mentioned, good it's not competitive multiplayer only but I still think achievements like that are retarded.

I personally like the achievement, I'm a dedicated Gears of War player and have been playing it since Nov 7th, 2006. I think it is a great achievement as well.

    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram by Aditya Tiwari Meta announced that its Instagram for TV app has arrived on Samsung TVs in the US as part of its latest expansion, giving users one more way to scroll through Reels. The social media giant often comes under scrutiny for the "addictiveness" of its features, which leads people to spend excessive time on the platform. Interestingly, Instagram boss Adam Mosseri described spending 16 hours on the platform as "problematic use" but not "clinical addiction." Mosseri also compared scrolling on Instagram to binge-watching a show on Netflix. Instagram for TV is now available on Samsung TV models released in 2020 or later. The app is already available on Amazon Fire TV and Google TV in the US, which together account for the majority of connected TV devices. The company said it will test several new features to improve the living room and family experience while using Instagram on the big screen. Watching vertical videos on a big screen isn't something many would be excited about. Probably that's why Meta is testing a dedicated home for horizontal videos. Creators will get the opportunity to design content for TV screens and get more ways to reach audiences, according to Meta. If you found an interesting Reel while doomscrolling on your phone, you'll be able to cast it to your TV. The feature is available for testing on Instagram for TV on Google TV and Amazon Fire TV, and it will also support videos from the Saved tab. Instagram for TV will be testing Channels organized around user interests, across genres such as comedy and sports, as well as content from favorite creators. Moreover, you can watch Stories on your TV. While Instagram is known for short-form videos, it's knocking on more doors to keep the audience hooked. The company said it's exploring new content formats for the big screen, including long-form creator content to cover topics in detail, episodic series to build suspense across multiple episodes, and creator live sessions on TV. All of the new updates put Instagram in competition with established giants like YouTube (and Netflix), which already have a robust presence on the big screen. In recent updates, Instagram added the ability to write an individual caption for each carousel image, manually re-order posts, and a paid version of the app.
    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      I know RAM and storage prices are high right now, but I think it would have been better to have 1TB as the base level storage, especially as it's supposed to be for gaming. Plus a 2.5gbe ethernet port rather than only 1gbe.
    • Microsoft releases major feature updates for stock Windows 11 apps

      By Neeo · Posted

      I have installed the debloated version of Windows 11 25H2 Pro. I obtained the apps from store.rg-adguard.net. The size of the Photos app window is quite problematic for me; it consistently displays in a 16:9 aspect ratio, resembling a movie theatre screen, and cant remeber its last size and position. The Snipping Tool cannot capture the taskbar. When I select "Window" in capture mode, it allows me to capture menus or individual windows, but I am unable to capture just the taskbar. This functionality was available in version 24! I am on the same version numbers (latesst).

      I'm already seeing my steam library, still swallowing the 16 Gb of RAM, then looking at the SD storage expansion and saying "what?".
