    Hopefully mine will turn up tomorrow. Tend to get most pre-orders a day early. What are your play times like? I'm gonna go through it with my brother and another friend but we play quite early, start around 4pm as we all finish work around 3pm.

    There must be a drop in and out option for co-op? I don't think it will be to hard for you to fins someone to play it through with.

    I haven't ordered it, but I hear some supermarkets (ASDA and Sainsburys I think) will be selling it for £30 tomorrow. If that's the case, I'll pick it up.

    Something to do while you're waiting for the game!

    7 COGs have been placed around Australia in secret locations as well as 7 in EB Games retailers, 2 virtual COGs on the EB Games Australian Website and another 5 virtual COGs on IGN.com.au. These metal COGS allow you to unlock the secrets behind the epic back story of Gears of War 2.

    the gears series for me is the best the 360 has to offer, the cinematic feel to the game is just awesome. Stewart, make sure you play through it in co-op as you really need to to be able to appreciate the game the way it was meant to be played.

    The graphics have had a tidy boost this time round and horde mode was challenging by myself as nobody else on the friends list was playing.
