I enjoyed gears while it lasted, my xbox froze twice so i got fed up and went to bed. I feel the death of my xbox is imminent.

Had a blast tonight guys:) Thanks for the fun. Thanks crak for showing up even though you can't stand it lol. Good gaming indeed.
It's MW2 I can't stand, love Gears, wish i'd come online earlier though, only got about 90 minutes in last night, good fun as always though.  :)

I think it is Sarge that can't stand Gears.
Your mom!

My xbox froze twice as well. Except mine is a brand new super elite that i have only had for a couple of months. Is your game on the hard drive? Mine was but i deleted it off after the second time it froze and it seemed fine after that, i have heard that if you have gears 2 on your hard drive it has a tendency to freeze a lot - another of my friends had the same issue until he deleted his off the drive. Gears 2 is the only game that ever freezes on me, so it must be that game that is the issue.

Mine froze twice last night too, first time it's ever happened, I think it's to do with the crappy new custom gametype on Gears 2, it's never froze before on Ranked and I play that a lot.

Actually it's froze on me during ranked as well. It's probably the custom gametype being glitcy made worse by having the game on your hard drive.

i think it's that stupid custom gametype, if they swapped players over before each match, we wouldn't have had to jump back to lobby and risk people freezing. :/

Agreed.  Let's hope the Gears community on the Epic forums are demanding it so the developers know they need to change it.

I think it might be a combination of hardware, software, and connection.  I have Gears 2 installed on my HDD, but never experienced freezing or getting kicked.  But I also have a Jasper (MW2) model console, and a 12Mbps cable connection.  If one thing failed, another thing may have kept me from getting kicked/freezing.  Just a guess.
