Gears of War

Going to buy a 360 tomorrow. This game is the fuckin shit. Also excited about Blue Dragon in June. I went from no gaming for 2 years to owning all of the next gen systems and a DS Lite and a really cool doorstop that plays UMDs between December and January. I guess it's hard to kick the gaming bug.

These days is a great time to be an avid gamer.

Gears of War is like Halo, except with horrible multiplayer.

And like Quake 4, but no jumping...

I'll admit the campaign is fun, however the only innovative thing about the game is the way you can fire from cover.

I found Black to be far more challenging to be quite honest.

Horrible multiplayer? You are crazy. It's about the most fun coop multiplayer I have ever played.

I should have clarified. My apologies.

Co-Op Campaign is great, but multiplayer deathmatch etc blows.

I'm not much of a deathmatch fan. I got pretty tired of it about 10 years ago. I much prefer a well executed coop mode.

We need more really good co op games...

Speaking of which, I think you need to roll out an NWN2 server, Toss!

My server is an old dual Xeon 450. Not sure it can handle it...

I've yet to check out NWN2. I am getting a new laptop here shortly so may give it a spin.
