Gears of War 3 Dated (Official blah blah)

been to every shop possible to buy this and nobody has it in stock,tesco has the best deal i think,but my local one hasn't got any left,they said maybe 2mor or fri,at least the xbox points and game offer doesn't end till 25th

Cant you just order it online for delivery? Shopto would get it to you by tomorow and when i checked earlier (couple hours ago) they had stock.
 
My limited edition Gears of War 3 320gb XBox 360 landed at my doorstep yesterday =) I have never played any of the Gears games before so I'm playing the trilogy right through tonight until next week can't wait!
 
If anyone in Newcastle is struggling to find stock I have 2 standard editions I can put up on MM @cost if ya wanna pick em up.

Otherwise theyre just getting posted back tomorrow.
 
Teh amount of people leaving after a few rounds of horde is really getting annoying as it seems not to replace the players that leave :/

I don't think it's supposed to do that, as otherwise people could jump into a round at a much higher wave than they have ever reached.

What did happen with my first game of Horde though was that the host left the game, so it tried to migrate. However once it did so, it dropped us back seven waves and all our defences were gone, along with our score. That was pretty annoying and then everyone quit.

Yup had that a few times already :(

But seriously you get further and further, starts getting harder and harder, so ppl leave making it even harder and the players arent replaced :/

I'd happily join into any game that was at or below my highest but with no chance to be dragged to a higher wave.
 
Ok...just bought the standard edition from tesco's got it home, ripped off the cellophane and i can't open the damn box!!

Theres a red tab alone the spine where the box would typically open, any tips?!

You can't get past those without destroying the box and/or disk. Take it back.
 
Anyone tried playing in 3D ?

Just gave 3D a try for the hell of it though as a rule I'm against 3D so I'm quite biased.

It works but the effect isn't too good, it's like looking at one of those kids pop-up books where everything is in layers. Plus it murders the resolution as the Xbox has to display two frames at once so you lose a lot of the fidelity.
 
Anyone else finding matchmaking slow and tedious at the moment? Last night was amazing, guessing more people have bought it today which is probably what brought XBL to it's knees earlier.

Looks like it's Gears 2 multiplayer all over again if you're playing with randoms. Grr.

XBL: randal24 if anyone wants to add and fancies a bit of Beast! :D
 
I'm getting seriously arsed off with this. XBL has kicked me out twice now, mid game. Just says "You've been disconnected from XBL".

Proper GRRRRRRR.
 
The horde timeout is a joke. You only get about 60 secs. I went for a wee and got kicked off for not participating. Unfortunately I am using a wired controller so couldn't take it to the bog with me to prevent the timeout. :(

Stops people boosting though, not a bad thing. Well unless you need a really long wizz. :D
