[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

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...

    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.
