[Official] Gears of War 2


Recommended Posts

I will hopefully have it on Saturday, decided to save $20 so am waiting for it through Gamefly, but they shipped it this morning at 8:20 AM.

For anyone who might not have it and was waiting to buy it in store, I saw a commercial just before that Friday & Saturday Circuit City has a deal, if you buy the game you get a free card for 1600 MS Points, pretty damn good deal.

I would have definitely done that if I didn't have $25 in gift certificates towards Target. :pinch:

yeah, I'm a be hittin' up CC after school with that in mind and a ten dollar giftcard for buying Dead Space.

Yeah!! Saving the monies, one at a time.

Well it's finally here. Gonna pick this one up in the morning.. It's gonna be a few weeks before Left 4 Dead releases. This will keep me busy :)

It was a long dilemma but I finally narrowed my 2 games for this holiday.

Agreed (Y)

hahaha! This I gotta see!

Just got back from Gamestop. I got the game with the XBL codes for the gold hammerburst and the GoW2 NXE theme, and a GS exclusive comic that tells some of the story between GoW1 and 2. About to pop the game in and play the night away :D

-Spenser

I wish the order copies of GoW2 came with those stuff :[, apparantly mines still sitting in Arizona and should arrive within.... 18 hours, 10 hours if I'm lucky :(

Hmmm, I have ?38 worth of CEX Vouchers so may wait until they have it in store then play on my bro's xbox. Only thing is I'll then not have a gamesave when I play on my new xbox. *Sigh* I'll just play online:pp

Just gotta wait for someone to trade it in xD

If anyone has a spare Gold Hammerburst code could you send it to me in a PM cos I would love one but ordered it online so didn't go to a midnight launch.

Thanks in advance!

I can't see anyone giving it to you for free after waiting in line at midnight for it...

Lots of people playing Horde now. Every map is a different challenge, and with 15 to choose from it's going to take a while to get bored :p Haven't had a chance to play competitive MP yet lol.

I'll send you a FR in a sec. What we could do is run a private Neowin party so that people can join and leave as they please. If you do public you have to wait until the next game to join which can be a pain since each Wave lasts at least 90 seconds, rising to 2 minutes at Wave 8 and beyond...

    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?

    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
