This week there are some great things dripping down the pipe of Gears of War 2 news and rumors.
Word of a strangely priced (read: nicely priced) Gears of War 2 Limited Edition has cropped up. GameXtract found the great deal and wrote this about it: “I like getting my video games cheaper. Especially when I don’t have to wait for three months till everyone else doesn’t give a dam about the game. It looks like ToysRus is trying to get an upper hand on pre-orders this year with Gears of War 2. The limited edition is listed on the site for $59.99 instead of the regular $69.99 found at many other retailers.” Can’t exactly complain about that, now can we? Extra Gears of War 2 toys for cheap!
Also on the Gears of War 2 radar are some Leaked Gears of War 2 multiplayer screenshots. Split-screen says this: “In order to refrain from spoilers another little piggy sent us the list of multiplayer maps and a couple of snaps, in case you are one of those who loves whispering Marcus Fenix into someone’s ears then its time to get those chainsaw’s outta here.” The images are a bit blurry, appearing to be pictures from a camera shooting a TV with the game playing on it. Not the best, but it’s something…
For our third bit, we’ve heard official words from Epic themselves (via CVG) following the announcement that the game has gone gold: “After two years of pouring our heart and passion into Gears of War 2, the team is immensely happy with what we’ve created,” said design director Cliff Bleszinski. “This is Epic’s best work yet, and we can’t wait to see the response from fans and newcomers to the series alike.” We still have to wait until November before we can strap on our lancers again, however. Halloween can’t come and go fast enough!
