Excellent. I'm sorry I haven't joined in the last two nights, I've been quite busy, and when I have been free I've been working on getting the Forza achievements. I will definitely be online tonight, double XP and all  ;D

But how can you not enjoy GOW? I talked a woman and her son in HMV in to not buying Halo: ODST yesterday, I told her it wasn't as good as Gears 2 (even though I've never played it) and she took my word for it! ROFL  ;D

I'm always up for Horde, like JT mentioned, if theres more than 5 of us we'll have to split up, we normally play Private for a bit first before jumping on Horde, depends how many of us there are.

I'm going to be online from about 8 tonight, might be even sooner. With the double XP I'm going to be Gear'ing all evening. If I get home from work earlier I may even get an hour or so in before dinner too:o)

Post by: Jaynestown on October 30, 2009, 05:07:12 PM
I am playing horde at the moment and the double XP doesn't seem to apply. I am only getting the standard 150 points per wave. Does anyone know if it is coming in later today?
Title: Re: Friday 30th October
Post by: Jaynestown on October 30, 2009, 05:31:34 PM
Definately not double XP yet - the Bloodmounts are still on level 10.
Title: Re: Friday 30th October
Post by: TaraJayne on October 30, 2009, 06:30:02 PM
Hi JT I just read this on the Gears website

"2x Is working, Joe confirmed it. But hosts need to re-boot their Xbox's for everyone to get 2x, if they haven't you'll only get normal EXP. "

Too much beer and no food = inability to kill people on Gears 2 >_<

Had fun, got frustrated a few times from dieing too much but that's all part of the fun :P I also think we set an impressive inuendo record last night, with all that talk of massive weapons blowing up in a butchers face.

Gonna sleep in work now, xx
