Nice vid.

I like gears but can't stand the online, the story is great and the gameplay is pretty fun but once it's done it's done.

Halo is another one where the online isn't that great anymore.

I still like both games online, it's always a great laugh when we play them on Friday nights.  Public on Gears 2 is a mixed bag though, sometimes you'll get a good bunch of opponents who play it for the right reasons and you'll get some great matches, the rest of the time however, all you get is glitching freaks and lag switchers which completely sours the experience.

We had them on Friday, when the majority of people had gone offline, Me, Failed, Dfuse & Dark had two public Guardian matches, the first we won 3-0 and was a decent match, one of the guys on the opposing team said we sucked after the match, idiot  :)

The second game was against a clan (well 3 of them were Clan members) and they went 2-0 up very quick and you could tell they were glitching and stuff, one shot shotty kills from quite some distance, one shot downs with various weapons, stuff like that, then Dfuse gave us a Pacino motivation speech & we beat them 3-2  ;D

Sorry, I can't afford to buy any more games at the moment, I have about 12 that I either haven't completed or want to try and get more achievements on. And besides which, if it's even remotely like MW2 I'm not going to enjoy it, at least not the multiplayer anyway. Anything where I run around like a headless chicken being shot all the time just isn't any fun.

Give me Gears any day! :)

nice review Sarge.

every can't like every game, it's understandable, what gets me is how people seem to think that if they tell enough people about their undying hatred of a certain game it will bring them all over to there side.

i'd rather just go 'i don't like this so i'll play something else'.

Can't wait for Shenmue 3



I hate jokes that rely on visual imagery.

I've had it right up to here with them.

I think the review was a bit sh*t. You can find faults like that with any game, I f you don't enjoy a game you will pick out the faults where as if you enjoy the game you will overlook faults like that.
