DrunknMunky Veteran Posted October 24, 2008 Veteran Share Posted October 24, 2008 Do pre orders get it early or something? I was under the impression it was out worldwide on the 7th Nov.Anyone else got people on their friends list playing this? I’ve seen quite a few... I’m surprised there not banned yet. I get my preorders usually 1 or 2 days early basically because e-tailers do their best to meet the street dates. So they send them Tuesday/Wednesday and there sent 1st class for the best part.

what Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 ^Xbox Live is P2P, remember? Microsoft simply provides the matchmaking servers which work for all games coded to use them I believe.

I didn't think online servers would be enabled till nearer release? The only useful one would be that long jump one but I'm not surprised people have found glitches already. Half the people that "get it early" don't even play multiplayer they abandon their teams and just try to glitch, that is it and post it on Youtube. I'm not sure why or how that is cool anyway, wasting all your time like that. :| Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/678574-official-gears-of-war-2/page/9/#findComment-590017134 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR3AMxCATCHER Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 like what I meant was like what stores would be having the midnight launch.. I'm sure a gamestop release page will be up soon. Usually most stores that have midnight launches will be having this one.

Razorwing Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 for anyone who doesn't know. Futureshop is having a promotion whether you buy the original or the speical edition of Gears 2, it comes with a Locust headshot figurine and COG tags for free. The item itself is worth $200. But damn, it doesn't open at 12am for people living in Ontario. It opens at 8am. Means I have to get up at like 5am and wait for my copy. http://www.futureshop.ca/marketing/gow2/# * I'm not sure if this is an online promotion? or is it both a store and online promotion? anyone help me out? * Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/678574-official-gears-of-war-2/page/9/#findComment-590044770 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spenser.d Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I'm hoping my gamestop has a midnight release. I preordered from them and I don't have any classes or work on friday's so it'd pretty much be perfect :D -Spenser Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/678574-official-gears-of-war-2/page/9/#findComment-590044778 Share on other sites More sharing options...
