    Re: Gears of war 2 release day

    I hear that if you trade in Fable 2 at Game you can have Gow 2 for £12.99. I was just wondering if anyone else has heard of this as I have completed Fable and am bored of it?

    I might be wrong but I thought I read that if you Trade in Fable II against GoW2 in HMV you get GoW2 for £7.

    I was right

    I honestly can't believe a work colleague got the game yesterday (a day early I believe) and already has 2 achievements done....he is a massive GoW fan.

    Re: Gears of war 2 release day

    I "think" supermarket pricing is as follows:

    Sainsburys - £29
    ASDA - £32
    Morissons - £30
    Tesco - £37

    Not sure if those are 100% accurate, but it's along those lines. Went to Sainsburys myself, and it was sold out. Had to end up going to Tesco and paying £37. Bah. Oh well, Horde mode is a lot of fun.

    Was playing horde mode on split screen with a friend yesterday and managed to get up to level 18. It was just the two of us as well Quite an achievement I reckon!

    Playing through the Co-op story mode with my housemate. It is very cinematic. Great fun.

    Horde mode is fantastic. Grabbed a few mates and we got to level 40 on first go. Will have to put some more effort into that!

    Nope, he didn't play it much at all; his xbox has RROD before the game arrived.
