Gears does NOT have a better story than MGS though lol.

[BRP]

Let me guess, that's review talked about how CONFUSING MGS is.

[Cydewinder]

I lol'd when I saw that, it just seems like they did it on purpose, people on their forums have been bitching about MGS4 getting a lower story rating than Halo 3 (I think that was the game, I forget).
They were saying stuff like GT has lost all credibility, blah blah, just seems like the perfect way to get all of those fanboys on their boards raging by giving Gears 2 that 0.1 extra.

Opinions!

I don't want to compare two different games, especially since I haven't played one of them yet, but I will say that I think Gears 2 will be more enjoyable for me. I was a bit disappointed with MGS4's gameplay and story. It was a good game, sure, but definitely not the best, even in the MGS series.

Agreed, despite popular opinon, MGS4 isnt the holy grail of next gen games for me personaly anyway, it was a pretty good game, but to me dead space and fallout 3 were much better.

Anyone have any idea what this 2.52 for PS3 firmware update is, I was going to play resistance and it sai dit needed to be updated. Wasnt there earlier today and now its taking forever to download.

* The playback quality of some PS3 format software has been improved.
* A text entry issue that occurs when using the on-screen keyboard, USB keyboard or Bluetooth keyboard with some PS3 format software has been addressed.

Ah, ok thanks, didnt see anything about it.

[Arachna]

Ok, as excited as I am about Gears 2 that comparison review with MGS4 made me cringe.

[Pro]

Wow, I usually watch GT reviews, and don't mind them...but just wow LOL. I loved Gears 1, and I'm sure Gears 2 will be just ass awesome...but you gotta be fucking kidding me at how low the Story rating was on MGS4. Garbage.

EDIT: err I meant at how the Story rating was lower on MGS4 as opposed to GoW2, albeit only by .1...but still. Garbage!

Apparently they're sending out public Killzone 2 Beta codes on PS underground. Not sure if I'm going to have time for the beta, what with all the games already coming out, so if anyone does want one I have a code to give away

[Cydewinder]

I'll take it if it's still available.

[SamanosukeShiva]

[izembo]

[Elesirdur]

I wonder how much it's selling for pre-owned. I beat it on an extended rental but would like to own to play again and try out MGO.

[izembo]

[Kyo]

I am not sure what you mean by TGS. At TGS they announced the second expansion. If you don't play MGO then perhaps you should sell it(and you don't plan to play it again). If you do, then don't.

Reselling games in general is usually retarded anyway.

399 PS3 + 100 gift card = $299.99 80GB PS3 hmmmmm

[Jefe]

Wait, gears of war has a story lol?

[Merovingian]

Sucks i lost my 60GB PS3 . The service center said the repair was too high for the extended repair service to cover it. Good part is they are doing what they call a buy back giving me Full refund($500) and not a PS3 unit per se so i guess i will save it for the 160GB unit or buy the 80GB and use the rest for a game.
