Default Gears of War 3

Not sure how many 360 gamers we have left on here now But anyone else getting Gears 3?

Planning on throwing myself more into the MP than with previous Gears games (although I have fond memories of BD Gears 2 nights ) so wondered if anyone else was keen.

I doubt it. Never really got into the first, bought the second cheap & didn't play it much.

This one falls too close to BF3 and Batman for me. Maybe some time in future. :/

Spent quite a lot of my spare time this week playing Gears 2 MP while there's been 25xp on everything

Annoyingly I'm in London for work Thursday and Friday next week but should get some time in with Gears 3 Tuesday and Wednesday if anyone's about!

I would, but I can't afford it, maybe get it for my birthday or Christmas. Can't really remember much of the story though, so will have to replay the first two before hand.

I think the story goes something like this:

Woo! Check out my ultra thick neck! Woo!
LOCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUST!
*chainsaw noises*
*gunfire*
MEDIIIIIIIIIIIIC!
Hmmm what's this button do? Oh shii....BESERKER!
*silence*
'Hammer of Dawn is online'

*sometime later*

Woah! My necks gotten thicker! Hells YEAH!
Dudez! We can save the world by blowing our last city up!
Lets take the long way!

*many hours later*

Why are those locusts glowing?! RUUUUUUUUUN!
I can't run - my necks too thick!
That doesn't make sense!
Wait! More Locust! They ain't glowing though.....****, civil war!

*CRAZY PLAN MODE INITIATED*

Lets destroy our city to flood the Locust!
Yeah!
AWESOME!
COLE TRAIN BABY!
BOOOOOOOMER!
*gunfire*

Right lets ride this Brumak to the caves under our city!
*Stompy shooty death for all follows*
Damn! That Lambent just destroyed our bomb! Lets kill him!
*Lambent explodes*
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY ****! HE'S GONNA BLOW!
*The city sinks, water floods the locust*
NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' 'BOUT!

Dudes! My neck is still massive! Oh and my dad is still alive! Woo!
*fade to black*
