A friend and I went there last night and they didn't fucking let us in at 1202! They close at midnight! I called them and asked if he would let us in because we knew exactly what we wanted and we just called there to see if they had it in stock, we would be right in and right out, and he wouldn't let us in.

"Hey man what the fuck am I suppose to do here?"

It's okay though. Stroid was playing at his friends house and he never played before. lol

He did really good for playing on hardcore for like 5 minutes and getting used to it so quick.

Hopefully you get this game (or rent it) Stroid. ;)

How much cussing does this games have in it? My little sisters like to play CoD with me, but I don't think they should play this one. I'll probably it for christmas or something.

It has A LOT of cussing. When you reload, you have this little bar that runs to the right and if you tap the reload button again at a certain spot, you reload faster. If try to hit that spot and miss it, a lot of the time your guy goes "Ah SHIT!"

It's kind of funny because you can always tell when your partner fails to get the fast reload and his gun jams because you hear his guy complaining and saying "Ah Shit!" most of the time when it jams.

Anyway, they communicate with each other a lot and they say shit and ass a lot of the time. I think I only heard fuck twice so far though.

But to the point, if your sister plays with you she'll definitely hear cussing. Some of the stuff they say is really funny.

Oh and also, if you pause and go to the game options, there is some type of feature that lets you turn off some of the "bad" stuff. I don't remember what the option is called but it may turn off the blood or something.

That sucks that it didn't credit. I just found out that beating hardcore gets you all the Casual achievements as well as the Hardcore achievements. So you don't get any extra achievements from playing easy first.

Speaking of the crill when you're driving part, it took me and my friend like a half an hour to beat that part on Insane. He lives in Puerto Rico and it was like 400 AM for him and he vowed he wouldn't go to bed until we beat that chapter. We ended up beating Chapter 2 on Insane but I have to go back and beat Chapter 1 on Insane and then do Chapter 3 and etc.

I've had more fun with this coop than the Halo 2 coop. shock

And the multiplayer is so fun and intense. AWESOME game. This is my favorite 360 game. I'm gonna have to do the Trainn 360 site for it. D

Multiplayer is a TON of fun when everyone talks and you can coordinate your attacks. We played a game where I had everyone use pistols only and we rocked the other team.

We all moved together with our pistols and surrounded one person and shot tons of rounds into him and then beat him to the floor. It looked hilarious and we couldn't stop laughing. We kept using that method and we beat the other team 10 to 1.

The pistol is crazy good if you can get the headshots in there and then press forward and A diving in then you pistol whip them in the face knocking them to the ground. You can then smack them again or crush their head with your foot to kill them. ;)

What games do you normally play? Here's the list of games I've played online with my 360 ---

-Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
-Splinter Cell Double Agent
-Battlefield 2
-Gears of War

That's pretty much it.

Oh and guys, multiplayer is a whole different aspect of the game. I love playing games online because you never get the same thing twice. Every game is different (for the most part). You never know who you'll end up playing with.

One of my best Xbox Live buddies is from Puerto Rico and he'll be up at 400 AM his time playing with me. lol

And about the multiplayer of GoW, to me, it's more addicting than the single player.

I thought of an AWESOME idea in multiplayer.

We were playing 3 vs 3 and we took out 2 guys. I turbocharged my sniper (with the active reload) and shot the last guy in the chest and brought him down to his knees.

So then I tell everyone to surround him and just stand there and wait for him to stand back up and once he stands back up we beat him back down to his knees.

So we did that, he was sitting there and we surrounded him against the wall. When he tried to get up, we beat him down with our pistols and he was back to his knees. When he tried to get up again, we did the same thing.

It was hilarious because every time he'd attempt to get back up we'd just beat the crap out of him. lol

We eventually just shot him in the head.

Yeah I hate telling my teammates that. I feel like a noob. oops

Tomorrow I'm gonna try to get 4 people to kill 3 guys in a ranked game and we'll bring the last one down to his knees and surround him and beat him down every time he stands up. lol

It works best in Execution, since it's easier to get back up.

I see a few more people got the game, are you guys liking it?

12-12-2006 15:09:15

I'm good at ranked matches but they annoy me. It takes FOREVER to start up and then you play 1 game and then you get booted out. I'd rather just have fun and play a bunch of games in a non-ranked match. I wish they'd fix that. (

Anyway, GoW FINALLY came from Family Video today after YGF ordered it for me like 3 or 4 weeks ago. I'll be on later, oh and I'll go for that achievement with you if you haven't gotten it already.

BTW, what do you do for the cluster luck achievement?

yeah not sure how much i will play over the weekend. i will play alot during the day monday (day off).
clusterluck is killing 3 enemies at once 10 times.

i am up for multiplayer coop too. best way to do it is to send me a message before the invite. i get invites all the time and if i am on the ladders i usually dont pay attention too much )
the reason i play on the ladders is for the achievements

no new maps as of last night. the patch has not hit us yet either
some things they need to fix
1. shotgun glitch where sometimes being right next to someone and firing aimed misses completely
2. ledge glitch - u should be able to leave a ledge from any motion/direction
3. wall cling glitch - two people should be able to latch on to the same wall.
4. party system to keep the same people in games / clan system
5. they need to fix the get out of map glitches

Keep shooting him in the face with snipers after you make the bats leave. When he comes down the train towards you, hightail it to the other side and keep shooting him in the face with the sniper after you get the bats to leave (the bats are like a shield).

Yeah i know all that, i mean we beat him on the first two difficulties just fine. Its just that when he gets to our end, we sometimes have a hard time getting there. My buddy shoots with with the explosive crossbow (scaring the krill) and then i hit him in the head with the sniper). How many shots do you tihnk it takes?

I'm not really sure. We just kept shooting like crazy and kept running from one side to another. You'll eventually get it.

General RAAM is really easy on Insane once you figure out a damn good plan.

Give Dom the torque, grenades, etc, and have them stay back on that little wall that Marcus and Dom take cover on during the initial cutscene. Both stay on that little wall and have Dom blindfire grenades near him to take the bats off and then just shoot at him with the assault or whatever. As RAM comes closer, Marcus has to pull a damn good evasion and hightail it to the other side of the area to the Troika, but stay in the damn light. Hit the end of the area, stay in the light, and listen for the Kryll as they come. Have Dom evade and torque bow RAAM to ge the Kryll off, and once they're off and not endangering you at the troika, get up on that turret SOB and shoot the shit out of RAAM. Don't get greedy though. If you see yourself dying or hear Kryll, gtfo the troika and just evade and repeat. You'll own this way in just a few troika shots.

Whats the difference for "annex"?[/quotedb27d24387]

"In Annex, gamers seize victory by keeping control over key map locations, or objectives, long enough to collect a winning number of points. Every map contains two to five identified objectives available for capture, with one objective active at a time. Objectives are based on map weapon-spawn locations and have a potential value of 60 points toward either team's score. Teams collect those points by maintaining ownership of an objective until all 60 points have been distributed. Every second that a team controls an objective, the team gets one point. When an objective falls to zero points, the next objective is selected at random."

There's also respawn. )
