"Gears of War 2"

A little bit early i know, but i just can't wait to get my hands on it. Basically thought we would need to have a thread where we can all discuss this game, i know plenty of us are getting it and in that sense we should have a place where we can talk about it.

Also useful if you find any secrets / collectables etc etc, but remember to use the SPOILER buttons - as some people may not be as far!

I have just uploaded all 50 Achievemtns in the cheats section so we can help each other with them or give assistance and guidance to getting them.

Would be good if we could also get people posting if they going online and fancy a match, the usual stuff but i figure a big game like this deserves some special attention.

Look forward to hearing your thought on the game and playing Online with you!

I joined the others after you left last night, Emmie. I was on earlier, but no one was around, so I jumped back on around 11 something.

Jubba, you've got to join us to try and beat Horde (well, get as far as we can). it was virtually impossible with only 3 of us last night, we really need 5 to get through it (and a strategy!).

Basically you team up with 4 other people (friends make it most fun) then you have to survive Wave after Wave of attack, stay together and work as a team to take them out.

You get power ups after each 10 waves, you get one life per wave, so if you die you are out until the next wave. It is loads of fun as you help each other and work as a team.

When you reach wave 10 you get an achievement and wave 50 - but as i have played wave 19 i can start from there, so i want to know if me and you went in at wave 10 - would you get the achievement as you aint done wave 1-9??

What actually is Horde?

Ive completed the game on Coop with my gf on Normal so just horde, multiplayer and Hardcore & Insane to do.

Few of us got some more Horde in - think i went to level 20 and other carried on when i went down the pub to about 24ish

Which means anyone can jump in at that stage now. I would be curious to see anyone who has not made it to level 10 - if they could just join me and a few others AT level 10 and then see if they get the achievement, then we know it should work that way for Wave 50!

Yea i will have a research and see if i can find out if that does work or not. Need to do some more co-op tonight so i can get on with the story.

Really enjoying the game so far!

I don't know if that works or not, but it would be fun trying!

This was purely because my girlfriend was very bored of GoW (idiot i know) and so i stopped at about 9:45 ish

It was my brother on FIFA at that time, i was in bed asleep lol, get up at 6:50 these days, so need to get my sleep in.

oh and pb we finally got to level 10 in Horde, i left at level 14 but Black and that went on to 19 i think. You can re-start at any wave you have played, so i am wondering if we were to all go in at wave 19 and go to 50 would that give the achievement??

I did come along finally at about 11pm, but everyone was off or playing FIFA (I'm looking at you, Emmie!).

Bah. Might have to get through a bit more of GOW1 now then.

Well my 360 is in my study, so it's not even in the main room with the TV. It's just the lack of other work being done while I'm on it!

the story of a well written game is so much better than most the TV shows that are on. But i do sometimes feel bad if i make my gf watch games for too long, if she reading or on her laptop its ok, but sometimes she enjoys it and asks whats happening
