Well they didn't come from space....

Unless you meant illegal aliens, that's more accurate.

Anyone know if there's any midnight release for Gears of War? Come on, Final Fantasy XII got one, why can't Gears of War?!

stop slamming your face into your keyboard....

Anyone heard from EB about a release time for their area?

Because FF12 was street dated and shipped early to vendors while GoW is not street dated and is being shipped out within the next 24 hours. Most places are going to be getting it tomorrow (like EB and GC).

My EB says 6 or 7pm tomorrow night, my GC says noon or 1 tomorrow.
 
[quote name='nintendokid']fuck Final Fantasy[/quote]

Blasphemy!!! :bomb:

FFXII is the only thing keeping me sane while I wait to receive my coffin tomorrow (Nov. 7th, Emergence Day). If I was a hostile person like you, I could say "fuck MS" :whistle2:# , but I'm a more sane person than that. :cool:
 
[quote name='jasonlives13']I just called my local EB and they said they will have the game around 2PM tomorrow. I can't wait![/quote]

How is that possible when you aren't that far away from where I am?! None of the stores, I called 3 different EBstop, none are getting it earlier than Wednesday, and that's Wednesday evening :bomb: :bomb: to be exact. See, I told ya, the East/West Coast and Chicago get everything before us.

EDIT: unless they are just trying to be official about it. Or...unless you are lying :p JK

How can that be? Everything, DVDs, food (I think either Tues/Wed groceries get stocked), even pets!, get shipped out Tuesday. But pets are the only thing I know that get shipped out Tuesday and arrive Tuesday because of same-day delivery otherwise pets would die and shit.
 
Just remembered I'm going to a concert tomorrow so I wont be able to play till after work on Wednesday. I'll just pick it up then anyway. No use for me to find it on Tuesday.
 
Where the heck are the reviews for this game? The game shipped already. I smell a conspiracy (a la Perfect Dark). Though I hope not, I ponied up 70 bones for the CE.

Reviews will probably be up tonight or sometime on Tuesday.

I'm also wanting reviews on Tony Hawk Project 8, so I feel your pain.

Gears of War is one of those games I bought my 360 for, so I hope it dosen't suck. None of the other games I bought my 360 for have, so I'm confident GoW will be awesome, or else MS is going to look pretty dumb.
 
After the latest previews and hand-ons, i'm pretty confident this game will score well, if not phenomenaly. My fears were basically aliveiated with that 1up show vid.

After the shitty Saints row Multiplayer, i'm really looking forward to gears now.

Sites can't post reviews til tomorrow morning.

Well then. Maybe I just will have fun with my stamp collection until Wednesday, thank you very much.

I'll give you a good point on why this game will be good and will be twice better than PD0. You see my gamer card below? See how fresh it is? Well, my 360 is 48 hours old. I didn't buy any games with it, just an extra controller. I took it out to register my tag and placed it back in the box. Guess what game I bought it for....hint: it's almost here.
 
Do you want to have that feeling? Is it that important? If no, then get regular. It's not like Jade Empire regular vs LE where you get bonus content. That was the dumbest part of Bioware's decision. I ask why?

It's the first game I'm really hyped about since Ninja Gaiden (non-Black) so I'm getting the tin. Hell, I bought the 360 this Saturday just for this game.
 
I still cant believe there is no midnight sale for this game. We get a midnight sale for Madden, but not GOW??
 
Eh, I'm more excited about COD3 than Gears of War. I'll probably just rent both of them, unless Gears of War gets crazy, 9.9 or 10 scores from GS and IGN (not likely).

You could have one, but then you'd be waiting an extra day to play it. So I wouldn't complain.

I expect a high 9 ranking out of IGN. Gamespot will surprise me if they go higher than 8's.
 
[quote name='thrustbucket']I expect a high 9 ranking out of IGN. Gamespot will surprise me if they go higher than 8's.[/quote]GameSpot will give it a 9 or better. They did the same for FFXII, as it seemed they were obligated to give the game at LEAST a 9.0.
 
Weak...my store told me midnight release when I preordered it, now they are saying Wednesday.

I'm calling again later to complain.

You forgot the one review that's out so far (and has been for a couple of months):

4 out of 5 Blender :)

LOL I did forget about that one. That was an awesome read :rofl:
 
[quote name='Zoglog']cool, this is turning into gamefaqs

great job![/quote]
No, no it's not, I just learned my brother made two accounts and got banned... sheesh I shouldn't even have set him up with one, he does belong there though now that I think about it

You should be getting him Viva Pinata instead of Gears.
 
This place lacks the mindlessly/hastily thought out/numberless threads about any given topic that are repetitively created for any given topic.
Its like the repetitive group for repetitiveness.

Yes, I have no powers to ban him on GameFaqs. :)

And on topic, my wife just made a nice gesture of trying to see if our local Best Buy had received Gears early, but unfortunately they had not. Hopefully, my pre-order at EB comes in tomorrow. I have tomorrow off from work, so I'm pretty much just going to buy it the first place I see it so that I can waste as much time as possible playing this game tomorrow.

Whats the song from the commercial?

Post here if you're going to smoke a doob while playing Gears of War.
 
Oh this is just great. My 360 broke 2 days before this game comes out. I'm gunna have to wait a month before I can start playing it. I'm gunna be a n00b :headache:

[quote name='jalu6']Whats the song from the commercial?[/quote]
"Mad World"
 
[quote name='slickkill77']Im still not getting this game. I am going with the more reliable Cod3[/QUOTE]

More reliable how? Unless you absolutely loved Big Red One.
 
Yeah, I wouldn't call Call of Duty 3 "more reliable" since there are new developers. If it was made by Infinity Ward it would definitely be more reliable and a day one purchase for me.
