NOHBODY HAS THE DAMN GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wtf... honestly, if you say a release date is tuesday don' t have the game come out over a matter of three days. Also don' t advertise on your website it' s released on a day that it' s not. Why are videogames the only freaking type of media that can' t make a damn release day?! All DVDs and CDs come out on tuesdays. they aren' t trickled out over a goddam week period. I' m so fucking pissed off about it. I' ve been up since 6am going to Walmart (who told us it would be on the shelves at 7am and now they say it' s not even on their release list!) and fucking gamestop which is now telling me even if they get it in today they aren' t releasing them until fucking tomorrow. What kind of complete bullshit is that?!?!?!?!

I' ve been waiting and waiting and now out of nowhere everyone is like " well we should have it later in the week..." even though several of them have it in their damn back rooms! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I' m so angry right now! If they do start selling it tomorrow I can' t even play the goddam thing until 7pm at the earliest because I have both school and fucking work! WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

just be happy you dont live in EU Rampage

ohh and its a 9,4 on ign

Ya' know (im)Perfect Dark Zero got a 9 at many major sites and by many BIG magazines?

Still, I think it' s safe to say this is the score we had expected and it' s probably worth the numbers it gets. Perhaps NOT 10, but I can dig a 9.4.

So anybody know if they' re gonna release a Demo soon, so we can get an impression on the game before deciding if it' s worth the money?

They say theyre arent any plans, but in an ad in an OXM for XBLMarketplace it was listed under " Demos for games such as:" , take that as you may.

I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

Dionysius: WTF?! Why would they do this?

Dionysius imaginary friend a.k.a. Ludvig Von Hertzberg: To make you suffer and make anxious, ultimately making you buy the game, not knowing what you' ll get!

*Sigh* Guess one will have to get ahold of it the Durrty way, before deciding.

Can' t people shut up about how great it is untill I have my ex? Please!

9.6 by gamespot, i think ign score is a bit underwhelming for a game hyped that much, as for 1up, that website has its own 10 ...

so what u guys think, happy with the scores or not? i know you still didn' t have your hands on the game but you know just the scores it got from other websites...

I' m happy with the scores I' ve seen but none of it matters until I get to play the game. It' s not fair! So much BS... Hopefully some how I' ll have it by tonight.

Well if I had a 360 this would be on my list of games to get, for sure.

NiGHTS into Dreamcast

Those are on par with Halo 2' s scores

I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

So I gave Gamestop/EBGames a call today too see if either a copy of GOW or COD3 were in and they said COD3 ships today and will be in tomarrow. However as for GOW the shipment was supposed to be in today and theyve recieved a couple of other things so far but sign of the game yet. Altho UPS and FedEx have until 3pm (central) to get the shipment in before they recieve calls from Gamestop/EBgames.

So the game should be there sooner or later today its just a matter of when the shipment arrives.

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If they say it' s the seventh. Then let it be the friggin' seventh!!! (This rant is about CoD:3 BTW, I' m not hoping for anything untill thursday for Gears.)

I wish the GSs and EBs here would at least tell me what' s going on. They just say " Tomorrow" . No reason, not info, nothing. Infact it' s the whole state of FL. I' m on the Xbox.com forums talking to a bunch of people about it. This is beyond a joke. One guy managed to get a copy but it was sold to him by his friend that works at EB while the manager wasn' t looking (he' s got Gears on his gamertag so he' s telling the truth).So apparently several stores have them here but they are refusing to sell them. This is the most f*cked up launch I' ve ever seen.

I hope that the dealy in America don' t effect the release date set in europe.

lol a Ten??

So this the best shooter so far?

You guys should go download the 720p footage on Xboxyde. 3 HD videos at 10 minutes each, 2 of them being montages. The part with the Bezerker in the 2nd montage looks simply amazing.

If i must.

Xboxyde

Blim says the servers are getting blitz' d right now so you may not get very good speeds. It' s the 720p movies you want - all 3 of them, and i would fully expect them to blow you away.

If the screens on the previous page weren' t badass enough (and Tiz, i told you there were vehicle sections!), these are even cooler...

Amazon' s release date for Gears has been the 15 to 17th for a long time. They don' t get games right away though.

Oh my!

Way off the mark...

Anyway, get those HD movies on Xboxyde downloaded Bishonen. I want to know what you think. The indoor sections remind me of RE4. The game looks breathtaking!

I heard the two vidoes besides the 10 minute one are spolier filled. I' m holding off on downloading them because of that.

Hehe... I remembered that review, and I still hope Kikizo got a descent share of Greens for writing it. Seriously, there are many times I don' t agree with a score a game gets and feel like something is overrated, but most of the times I can at least see what they' re getting at. However the thing with PDZ was that I just couldn' t get it and saw NO redeeming qualties of the game, what so ever. I was beginning to wonder if it was just due to my incompitence and failure to see beyond its faults and to a game worthy of 9.0, until I read one of those free magazines, that had given the game a 6 out of 10. And I fail to see how a game with an admittadly failed single player campaign can reach a 9... unless it' s on a scale to 100.

BTW and back on topic, I' m really in the maybe yes and maybe no mode, right now. I' m thinking of getting GoW Collectores Edition (it has to be Collectors Edition ) but it is really expensive, and the review at gametrailers said an average player could complete the game in aprox. 8 hours. Aww, F*CK IT! Ill just pre-order the damned thing!

Ive watched the 2 10min vids and only got one thng to say:

" Next Generation Does not start until Epic Games Says so"

F%$k you Sony.

...yeah games like GOW and FFXII are already proven must haves for me... ...after a certain point, i' ll start avoiding viewing media on must have titles like these because i don' t want to stumble across spoilers, or ' play the game out' too much before i even own it...

The reviews has been awesome so i guess im gonna have to own tiz+ majik in a 1vs2 game at it later ^^

Btw Los todyssey > gears of war still.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Well I pretty much agree with the Kikizo review of PDZ.

I wonder what John Carmack and the rest of the guys at id Software think of Gears. I know hey have a new non-fps IP in the works. If it' s 3rd person it' ll be directly compared to this, and Epic have just raised the bar far higher than most people anticipated.

id are going to struggle to sell their engines now. Source and UE3.0 are going to be the engines of choice and Gears does and exceptional job of selling Epics engine. id are going to need to pull off something miraculous. What i don' t want is any more re-hashes of old IP' s (though RTCW2 should be awesome) and i particulary don' t want Hexen 3.

They' ve lost a lot of ground to Epic though and i can' t see them catching up any time soon...



Oooh, i wanted t ask you how you think Gears will fare in Japan. I know Famitsu liked GRAW, and that 3rd person games do better than 1st person games, but will Gears make any waves there?!

So am I the only one that' s actually played Gears of War here?

Does it have " Pretty boys" wearing futuristic, yet classic armor that looks like something a prince would wear in those cute little fairytales for little girls, that for some reason bares the chest and stomach of the hero in the game? *cough* FFXII *cough*)

Or does it have sexy/cute innocent girls wearing a colorful and tight (god knows what) suit waving a magic wand, summoning beasts of he.... actually that last part could be in the game, yet I think this game will flop in Japan. Why do you wonder Majik?

I envy you with every atom of my being.

Btw, I just cursed out a Gamestop employee because I got him to admit he' s go the game in and he still wouldn' t sell it to me even thouhg I already paid for the damn thing. I' ve never done something like that before, ever.

It' s amazing Rampage, & believe me, I' m seriously freaking suprised I actually got to play it.

A few good friends of mine had actually foregone all other plans (including work & school) to go pick the game up. So, when I got home from school, CoD:3-less I needed a pick-me-up, so I message my friends to make fun of them because they couldn' t have gotten a copy.

One of ' em he tells me to come over & suffer with him for a while. I do & when I walk into his room, lo & behold, what do I see?



Yupp... It was sw33tness.

My friend at EB straight out admitted they' ve got both the games, but he' d lose his job if he sold one to me.
I did get a call from EB telling me that I had pre ordered CoD:3... En Espanol. I don' t even live near the freaking border, I' m in Michigan as far from it, & I' m getting pre-order calls in Spanish. A little broken.

WOOT!, picking it up tomorrow...all for co-op, that games most important feature. Otherwise it would just be a rental for me. Have you guys ever played co-op with Halo on Legenday. Co-op is a blast.

Agreed x 100.

And yes Agent Ghost...Co-op kicks ass on Halo. That was the main factor behind me buying Gears of War.
