So is everyone still too butt hurt about Cliffy Bs comments and attitude toward the PC gamers to go out and buy this game? I've just came in here (which I don't do very often; usually stay in Genmay ) to see what you all were saying about it and I can't even find a thread on it from the past month or two. I don't care to get into the politics of gaming. If I like it, I'm going to buy it. So please don't derail the thread too much about this stuff .
I liked the first two a lot just for the mulitplayer/co-op support. A couple of my friends and I are getting it just for that. Though the story is pretty shallow (which should be expected for a shooter/action game of this type), it keeps me pretty interested as to how they will destroy the locust or die trying. I haven't played my 360 much at all this year with the exception of CoD BO when my friends occasionally message me to hop on with them. So I'm glad a game is finally coming out to make me feel like I didn't waste my money on my XBL membership. The Gears games are one of the few that make me want to get all of the achievements too since they're usually pretty fun to get, though there were a couple in Gears 2 that were just retarded and I didn't get (I think one of them was to kill an absurd amount of locusts). I'm sure once the campaign is done, I'll be spending most of my time on the new Hoard mode as I did with the 2nd Gears. It seems they've added a bit more strategy to it this time with the currency and weapons systems they have in place, so it should be even better, IMO.
Anyways, for those of you who are planning on picking this up a launch, please post where you're getting it since I haven't pre-ordered it and am looking for a decent deal on it. Right now the best I've seen is Amazon having it with a $20 gift card toward purchase of your next game, which won't be too long with BF3 and Uncharted 3 coming out this season . It's going to be a good Christmas this year.
