such a retarded concept. it's a game, come have fun. especially when considering the fact that the games brand new and nobody is a veteran.

it can't be fun if all you do is die.....I just need to get used to the controls, etc

I got sick of waiting for Family Video, so I bought it from GameStop. When the Family Video one comes, I'll return it to GameStop. I'll be on tonight after Heroes!

if you want to start a new co-op game, it overwrites your single player campaign progress? wtf?

i'm assuming he means the game joining/creation interface, where Halo2 was certainly one of the best ever.

that said, I wouldn't say GoW is bad, just inefficient for groups of friends.

here's a long (2:14) version created by a fan. it's better than the original.

anyone know the name of the song they've used in the commercial? it's the slow song where the main character jumps through the window and he starts firing at that spider looking thing.


I played the game for the first time this past thursday, it was sooo much fun. my bro-in-law and I mostly played the co-op missions even still it is a lot of fun. Haven't tried the online play yet.
