The Horde additions sound fun, but I cba with fiddling around with them, personally I prefer it when you had to rush to put shields back up, but I think that's just my nostalgic viewpoint getting the better of me

XD I love playing horde on blood drive... then you get a sheild & trap yourself in spawn & kill those ******s :L

Gnna play GOW 2 layta...

Really great game, and thats alot comming from a guy who thought 1 and 2 were OK with a good storyline. I've completed Horde, Beast and Campaign and can safley say it joins my 10/10 games (only 8 i believe in total) Online has been improved so much it's actually reached the point i enjo plaing it. Horde is as great as Gears 2 with the addition of a boss wave and defence which greatly improves the expirience. Beast is a superb and fun eddition. The storyline perfectly wraps up with very few if any questions remaining, the caught the emotion spot on (You'll know what i mean when you play it), Textures improved my only down side is Jayce, i don't know why but i have a hatred for him haha.

okay i wanted to post again after i've finished campaign so here goes. (OBVIOUSLY DON'T CLICK THE SPOILER IF YOU DON'T WANT TO RUIN IT FOR YRSELF.)

oh man, what a sublime finish. i loved it from start to end and the dom thing, well, yeah: i had a little cry. and i had another sob at the end too. i loved the lambent people, reminded me of like zombies cod style gaming? marcus has grown on me a lot more in this game too. i always took the piss out of him before, but yeah, he was a lot more likeable. baird had a few good one-liners haha, and cole is just always fab. loved carmine too, was happy at the end.
things i didn't like: sam's accent. so annoying. jace: why?!?! didn't like how carmine disappeared for most of it, didn't like how easy it was to take out myrrah. that's it really, loved the rest. really is so much cleaner than gears 2.

without spoiler? amazing campaign. haha ;)

Really enjoyed it, best game Ive played this year.

• I thought the ending was good, but not as good as the gears 2 ending.
• I love how carmine actually lived but did a vanishing act for most of the game.
• The cinematic scenes where excellent to watch.
• Dom sacrificing himself for the team makes a lot of sense, he was suffering from depression anyway.
• The lambent former humans made a nice change.
• Myrrah was too easy to defeat.
• The new one shot weapon is awesome.
• Adam fenix's death was inevitable.

I love it soo much, it's up in my top 3 favourite games.
Campaign was pretty good, felt like it was dragging on a bit at times, but it was good. The lighting I thought was amazing, the graphics in general are top notch.
Multiplayer is actually playable now, dedicated servers make it about more than connections, which is awesome. Snipers actually connect when you're aiming at the head now, the one thing that kind of ruins it at times for me is the sawed off, but you are able to outplay it if you know how. Favourite map for me at the moment is Sandbar.
Horde is still fun, but the fortifications, decoys, turrets and sentrys make it so much better for me, I only really played it for achievements in GoW2, but I actually want to play it now.
Beast mode is fun too, but it is a bit easy yeah. Berserkers are quite OP compared to the other locust in it's tier.
The only biggish thing I don't like is that you have to pay for the gun camos, would much prefer if they were all unlockable. But they know people will pay for them, so why wouldn't they make them DLC.

another thing i don't like is how powerful kantus is now, i mean he's always been a bit overbearing but at times during campaign he was so annoyingly tough.

I like the campaign overall, however I was very disappointed with the ending. Very easy, the whole point of the Lambent/Locust plot line of all three games is basically said in one conversation at the very end and seemed very rushed.
Not a spoiler because he's in the books, but I am very glad that Dizzy returns, even though I obviously knew he wasn't dead. The jokes about Carmine and the reveal of whether he dies or not made me and my buddy crack up when we were playing through.
All in all, it was classic Gears story-telling, but after waiting for so long for the conclusion, I think I may have ruined it for myself by hyping it up far too much.

just bumping with details of the first gow3 dlc. out on the 1st and seems to refer mainly to horde.

I knew they were bringing it back, but I'm so glad Blood Drive has been remade for Gears 3. Now all they need is Jacinto and River and the game will basically be complete.
