Shipments should be coming from the Western DC so you should get it tomorrow (20th) or Weds at the very latest.

I bought it at the midnight release and finished it in one sitting. Truly an amazing game. I can't wait to play horde mode and Beast mode. Beast mode does take some time to get used to. Horde mode is easy and it's great to have new features such as building new spikes etc...

story was great, i didn't think it was hard at all, i would prefer to play insane next. We had 4 people playing campaign and it was truly satisfying. I also played with cpu and it was a tad easy. The mechanics was great as they do come and save you and all and everything seemed smooth. reloading takes skills and not as easy as before. I do wish they would have more enemies and or more weapons but that's just be bitching.

We had one glitch during the game and that was about it. great drama, great game. 9/10

Darn, I wasn't home when Canada Post came to deliver the game. Usually they just leave it in the slot, but this time they sent it back to the post office for me to pick up today. But I have two packages? Was there some sort of bonus gift with pre-order?

Yup, a box of Gears of Wars bandages lol.

Purolator shipped mine for Futureshop, they dropped off the bandages at my door but I had to go pick up the game. When my sister told me my Gears arrived I was so happy until I got home and saw a box of bandages instead.

WTF, I picked up my order at the post office. When I opened the package, my pre-order box was open (seals were broken). I got the toque and mechanic baird code, but no bandana. Why would they steal my bandana?

Okay, can somebody explain Horde to me? For some reason, the only upgrade I can buy are the wire fences. I can repair decoys and turrets, but I can't actually build them?

we are onto hardcore mode now on campaign and it's crazy and way more difficult. you can't just be rambo no more. it's great when there's 4 characters now which means there's more people to "revive" you but it also means you don't give a shit cause there's always someone to save you.
Horde mode is hard (even in normal, we used to be insane level 36 in Gears 2). Bullets are limited, you have to build shit and the stages are very very different. In just level 20, after you failed like 5 times, they change it up with different enemies. It's really crazy what they throw at you.
