Oh well, like you said I just heard about it somewhere...I don't really care tbh. I just want the game to play and have some good ol times on xbl... :D

I'm just supporting the game that I love most. This game has brought me many good times and sadly has helped me when I've been down emotionally. This is a game that deserves to be Limited Edition and is worth the $73.50 I've already paid off just as the first Gears of War was.

I will be attending the Midnight Launch as well and want to be first to get my copy and get home quickly.

It was 'Preordered' an hour or so ago. If they send it early enough tomorrow I may still be able to get it on Thursday. It's happened once before, anyway. It depends how they decide to send it. I won't be holding my breath though lol.

I really doubt it tbh, Play aren't the speediest of e-tailers. They can be very random though as I've ordered from them one day and received my purchase the next day. Other times orders have come a day late and longer.

I've never had a package arrive late, but as I said, they have sent at least one game on next-day recorded delivery so it's not completely impossible :p

They do next-day recorded now? Since when?

I bought my PS3 triggers from them, posted today apparently so I'm interested to see how long it takes.

Sorry, not recorded, I meant I could track it. I didn't have to sign for it, but I could follow it through the various depots overnight.

Not sure how many people have heard about this, but I just saw it on 1Up.com. Circuit City has a sweet deal going on for people that pre-order Gears of War 2. You get a free 1600 MS Point card for pre-ordering the game. I just got off the phone with them (took like 20mins because i could barely understand the guy i was talking to). Anyway, here's the links:

Definitely worth it for those that haven't pre-ordered the game yet.

does anyone know that is the Horde mode only on live? Can you do a co-op Horde mode offline?

I think you can, just head to LAN mode and start horde from there (Just a guess) but I'll ask my friends anyway, a couple of them got it early and saw them playing last night :wacko:

I'm tempted to sell my Wii to put towards a 360 for this game and Left4Dead.

That would be a wise choice. I sold my Wii about 6 months ago and haven't regretted it one bit. Of course, it does help when you have 360 and PS3 lol

If you buy the Limited Edition it comes with a code to redeem that grants you access to the golden Lancer for multiplayer usage.

**EDIT**

I asked one of my friends who got it early and said you can start horde mode offline.

Hey guys I have another question, what time do you guys usually go for Midnight Releases? And does it matter if you pre-ordered or not? I still don't see the point of pre-ordering if you stand in line and ARE going to get the game anyway..

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      Web search has been one of those crap ware that I try to get rid of asap. It's annoying and slow. It was a cheap way for Microsoft to drive traffic to Bing.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By WaltC · Posted

      All I can say is that think the USB G8 is better in many ways, and costs the same or slightly less. I wouldn't part with mine. It's even a big improvement over the G6 USB. (You can also use studio phones (up to 600 OHMs I think) with the G8, but I have to say that even relatively cheap 30-50 OHM phones sound absolutely great--far better than through most internal motherboard sound!) Considering the difference in these products I am surprised that Creative is still making the PCIe internal card versions. https://www.headphoneer.com/cr...ve-sound-blaster-g8-review/
    • I have really been nerding out on my desktop icons and feel compelled to share...

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I missed this when you first posted it, but those are awesome icons! I would normally prefer things to be uniform, but each of those icons seems to fit perfectly for the game! If I may ask though, what was your thought process on which icons are circular - MK makes sense - and which ones should be rectangular or square?
    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output! Memories...
