Darrell thanks for reminding me about that!! I almost forgot that it was coming out this november. The first one was great. It took me forever to figure out how to kill the last boss.

Pretty darn excited myself, probably be at the store that day and then online until I beat it. Kind of like Halo 3, except I like the online game play much better on GOW.

Darrell, how do you feel about some of the changes? Chainsaw wars and images and such?

I agree, I am just wondering how the new maps will play on the online competitions. I didn't like a few of the new maps they added for GOWI and the new screen shots look too busy or something to me.

Sadly I am so pathetic that mine is already paid for and is guaranteed in the first shipment from my local B&M, I did the same for Fable

Loved the original, can't wait for the sequel. Graphics look awesome and I'm loving the "rail" scenes. Not sure why people complained about this in the reviews.

I just ordered Fable and Fallout-I am hoping those will keep me busy until Christmas and GoW2 will be on my Christmas list.

I was thrilled when the first one came out, beat it on insane and never played it again. It was an awesome game, but I couldn't get into the multiplayer. I preferred R6 Vegas 2 as far as technical shooters went. I may still try it out though

Ditto.. the multiplayer was pretty bad imo, not to mention the people that played it.

R6V kept me busy for many many many hours online though.


Personally with so many other top tier titles hitting the shelves, this one is amidst a lengthy list, and definitely not on the top of it. If they canned another 4 and a half hour Campaign into the disc, I'll be seriously disappointed.

I have the same problem. It's hard for me to get into new games because I'm hopelessly addicted to COD4.
