Yeh i wonder if uk will get it for this price ??? I doubt it. It will most likely be £60, or we might not get it all. But yeh i wont be buying it. Its too expensive.

Ben1054 - 479 days 8 hours ago

it will probably be 60 because the normal edition is going to be 40 or 50 depending what shop you go to. (sorry the pound sign doesn't work)
Or we might not get it at all.

I have the first one, and I'm about 90% sure I'm gonna pick it up but I'm done with preordering games.

I love Insomniac and every game they produce, but I'm not preordering a game from Amazon again. I preordered Crisis Core for the PSP where it was supposed to come with the Shinra UMD case and when my copy of the game showed up, no Shinra case. AND I had to wait like an extra week to play the game while they shipped it to me. No thanks, I'd rather just go buy whatever edition of whatever game from the store. I don't trust Amazon to keep to their preorder bonuses anymore. At least not where I want to play a game really bad and I have to wait while someone ships it to me while I watch people online playing it. I'd rather go and get it myself.

I agree.

But it seems to be the only real-time source people refer to when talking about sales. Gives you an idea of what's "hot" or not.

But I think the point your making is like if there's only 10 copies of "This Game" then they sell 5 of those, it's an amazing 50% increase! Then we'll see on N4G "This game had a 50% increase on amazon!!! Amazing!"

You can also pre-order at Target, maybe more.

you can pre-order anywhere but soon IG is going to announce that a specific retailer is going to give out Public Beta codes for R2 when you pre-order so i would hold the pre-order ticket for awhile longer

Just as long as the Xbox has Gears of War 2, Halo, or Fable. It's not going anywhere for awhile longer.

Expect the next xbox to have a even "next-gen" Gears of War using the unreal engine 4. The xbox brand is here to stay.

Just like Sega, amirite?

Don't be so sure of brands staying, the XBox brand has yet to prove a viable source of income.

On the contrary - It was excellent twitch play 32 player death match action, and was very satisfying, and very popular.

Of course I hope for improvements, but I don't agree with you about the original title - which was particularly brilliant for a launch title.

I hope you are refering to yourself. Or do I need to remind you that Resistance will 8 player online co-op! 60 player online battles! 2 seperate campaigns! HUGE BOSS battles! A killer story along with gamplay that is actually fun!

That's something that your precious gears 1.5 could never pull off, let alone any 360 game!

Do I have to remind you that no exclusive PS3 game has ever won any important GOTY awards or sold over 4 million copies?

juuken - 479 days 8 hours ago

And Jenzo...if you're referring to Halo...then that is the most overhyped crap I have ever seen in my entire life.

I would rather have quality than to worry about which game won awards and so forth. I'm sure that soon from now, a couple of PS3 games will win GOTY.

robbo918 - 479 days 6 hours ago

Do YOU need to be reminded that 2007 was basically the first year for PS3 to compete for a GOTY against MS's 2nd year titles? Do you also need to be reminded that 2008 hasn't been decided yet? Do you also need to be reminded that MS has proven that they buy anything they can't create, invent, or get on their own (including reviews)? Move on, your act is really tired.

Shane Kim - 479 days 6 hours ago

MGS4 to be GOTY. Either that or LBP. Everyone allready understood that GTA4 was overhyped, and if the media isn't biased as they always are, they too will understand that games like Gears of Whores are more of an expansion pack than a game.

Cartesian3D - 479 days ago

you are a Hardcore 360 fan, I saw you comments, you always defend 360 titles with intelligent comments, or say their problems even they are 360 exclusives...

but this :"Do I have to remind you that no exclusive PS3 game has ever won any important GOTY awards or sold over 4 million copies?"

its a stupid comment in every aspect, why?

because :

1-in November 2006 PS3 released, which console in history have GOTY title in just few months?

2- in 2007 COD4 won GOTY almost everywhere, even in 360 titles(IGN for example) , and BIOSHOCK isnt 360 exclusive , it was on PC in the same time.. and PS3 user will have it with extra features very soon.
and about HALO3, needless to say its a LAST gen game with new features for HALO fans who already playing COD4..

3- selling 4 million units? SONY have many titles that are so much bigger than HALO in term of quality and production value, but they havent released them yet, and MGS4 the first MEGA-HIT ps3 exclusive sold very well(over 3 million)..

but you think Gears of war can sell like this without MICROSOFT advertising? I saw Gears of war sale numbers even in ANANDTECH.com(a PC HARDWARE site), on TVs, on every NEWS site... it was funny because only HALO and Gears had this kind of HUGE advertising support in history of gaming..

so dont say BS when you are angry..wait and see sale numbers this Xmas.. cant wait :)

Curiousity pushed me back here to see what the general attitude is but let me ask you PS3 owners something,

why is it that it makes you feel better, to insult and heavily criticise an Xbox 360 game that isn't out yet, like Gears 2 per example. Are you so insensitive that you can't let the other crowd enjoy there things without being so childish about it? when you can just sit back and enjoy R2 or whatever?

Call me a 360 fanboy I don't honestly care, all I game on is my PC and that's when I have time for it, and In my "Opinion" it's the best platform regardless.

Look in any 360 article.Or any PS3 article as a matter of fact,and you'll ALWAYS find some troll 360 fanboy who just cant keep his fanboy words to himself.it's been like this since this site started

And now that PS3 fanboys do it to them,all of a sudden its not okay?
its annoying? get over it.

Why man? you don't have to acknowledge his comment you can just block him, or stay away from the comments altogether.

juuken - 479 days 6 hours ago

You block them, and they make additional accounts to harass you.

360 fanboys are running out of reasons to justify their system so instead of contributing to the articles, they resort to insulting. I'm sorry, but it sure took the moderators long enough to ban accounts using my username as a mechanism to flame me. I'm sorry, but it took the moderators long enough to delete comments of which talks about my private parts and my physical attributes.

If 360 owners want to defend their console to the very death, fine but don't insult someone just because they can't come up with a legitimate argument.

"they resort to insulting" if you believe im a 360 fanboy fair enough but to say that I'M the one insulting people when LarVanaian said to me "The same thing is happening with your IQ "
