I just bought this fucker 3 weeks ago and I'm already up to 5 games bought, only two played.

After seeing this:

I will be up to six games pwnd. I expect to turn pale and grow zits in the coming months.

This thing is turning me in to a video game geek.

I can't quit Madden, but then I started Tiger Woods and can't quit that. I still haven't opened Saints Row or Dead Rising and now Gears of War calls my name. The racing game is still in the package.

Bought the system w/ harddrive...then bought the stand, fan, wireless charger, wireless battery, cables, remote...this fucker is putting me in the poor house.

I used to get laid. :/

The reviews are overwhelmingly positive. If ever there was a bad time for my 360 to crap out on me, this is it.

Probably one of the best episodes ever. Season 10 has been sweet.

And my copy of GOW will be in hand at 1:30 PM according to Game Stop. Seems only Halo had more pre-orders than this one.

w00t!

No Xbox 360 only.

Reviews: http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/928234.asp

Gamespot and IGN RARELY give out 9.6 reviews. I got it on my way home from work and will fire it up later.

All I can say after an hour is...

*picks up slinging grenades*

"Nice."

Allsum. But casual level is too fucking hard. PrimeX died like 4 times while trying to escape the prison. I guess they gave me those grenades for a reason or something.

These fucking graphics are outstanding.

Imagine how hard Hardcore is if casual is tough. Then imagine who hard Insane mode will be.

No way. I need to find the hacks for "You can't kill me" mode like Call of Duty. I dig killing and not being killed.

All that and a bag of chips.

I got a chainsaw ... I'll skin your ass raw.

I just spent the last 90 minutes playing it on Xbox Live.

This game is good on an epic level. Holy shit was I having a fucking riot. I still don't know what the hell I'm doing since I didn't bother with the singleplayer as I just jumped right into multiplayer.

I've chainsawed 3 dudes and curb stomped another like Edward Norton in American History X. Good times.

Orc, I just added you to my friends list? PrimeX, what's your gamertag?

Was that you?

Sweet.

I've been primarily on single player so far. LOVING this game; however, I've been having some troubles getting stuck in cover position.

My gamertag thing should be set up this weekend. I've never even logged on to the live network, but I've been toldm I should do this now. I'm hoping 10 year olds don't punk me much.

You will be resembling your avatar in no time. Instead of banging your hands/arms/head on a keyboard, it will be on that niffty gamepad.

Ok then, forget it. I'll just keep playing by myself.

Alone.
