Are people actually accusing good ol' Chutey of fakeboying? SW has sunk to a new low :(Floppy_Jim

People still accuse me, even though I've proved them wrong 20x's over.

Here you go children: http://www.gamespot.com/users/Chutebox/images

I didn't post them in this thread because Glitchspot wouldn't let me...

Also, if you only see two images those are old and the new ones should upload soon...

See, I knew you wouldn't let me down. Is your GamerTag really just will though? Very short and to the point.

I wasn't. He has never done anything that would lead me to think he was fakeboying. And is fakeboying a new word Floppy? I like it..

Okay, you confused us because there is another will: http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?GamerTag=will You obviously haven't connected online, so why were you surprised that Gears of War 2 didn't show up when checking xbox.com?

I told you I don't know much about XBL lol. I haven't played Gears 2 online, that's why it doesn't show up?

No, if you connect online you'll need to change your username, you connect online with a used username. You said you had gold Live also.

I seriously don't know what's up with you guys Geow 2 wasn't all that great, I found it great (but not awesome), the SP was way batter than the 1st one(if it wasn't for gfxs at its tme would have sucked too much) I can understand some people not liking the game at all, like R2 (the mp aspect for this game is awesome however)

[QUOTE="ninjaxmas"][QUOTE="bigLLL"]

Ok so I buy gears 2 because 360 fans go on about how good the single player is and im up to the bit where they just went underground and im using those rockworm things as cover, So far it's the most overated uninspired game i've played I just want to know if it really picks up or is this as good as it gets for gears 2

Lto_thaG
i played a lil further than that and gave up. the game is total generic overated trash...

True,can't believe people are liking this game.What part was the worst in your opinion?

just the fact that its not very exciting. i did like the look of the sunken city you fought through for a brief time but everything else for me was the worst part. just bleh...

I think in your case, it's a little more understandable :P j/k

Still, I have proof of ownership of both consoles in my profile, people wouldn't be foolish enough to question me.

Indeed. I believe Chute has a 360, whether he plays it a lot (or played Gears 2) is another story.

I wasn't. He has never done anything that would lead me to think he was fakeboying. And is fakeboying a new word Floppy? I like it..

I know you weren't but others appeared to be. Hasn't fakeboying always been a word? Either way, I like it too.

Except for one instance, no it doesn't. It does however get worse, then it goes back to the level it was at. I'll put it in a spoiler, it's quite late in the game. [spoiler] It gets better when you can laugh at Dom's dead wife with your co-op buddy. Lolz. It's all downhill after that. [/spoiler]

It was lulz-worthy. Cracking jokes about it even later in the game.

See I really liked that scene. I thought it was well done. But did you go in to the game making fun of all he cutscenes or did you actually try to get into the story at all? Be honest here, since your mindset going into something can completely change how you enjoy something.

I thought it a very competent, well done SP campaign. Loads better than the 1st one. The start of the 2nd act is kind of boring. For me, it picks up a little after the giant worm appears.

First time around, I said "Damn, that's cold". Then when we met some butcher's and Dom said something silly like "I wonder what they eat down here" or something along those lines, we made a joke about it regarding that scene and from there it was a running joke. I honestly thought it was handled pretty badly. The initial shock was good, everything else was on the same level as Gear's story and cutscenes.

It definitely gets better. I was thinking the same around the part. I was never a big Gears fan, but i got the second anyway. After the half way point the game gets epic, i was seriously impressed.

It's not like she's an important character. You see her what, twice. For about 12 seconds each time.

Its cool. Different strokes for different folks. I dug the story. Its no 1984 or Brave New World, but I enjoyed it, but I could see how people didn't get into it as much.

I was really disappointed with Gears 2. There were a lot of things that I feel felt out of place (Reaver & Brumak riding, really?) and the Boss battles were just really weak. The multiplayer could be fun, but all it is now is a chainsaw fest.

The problem for me is, stuff was hinted at but never developed, same with new things that were introduced. It was more a of a "..what" than a "what?!" I know there has to be something for the sequel, but it honestly didn't feel like much was accomplished or evolved through the game. Then there's the characters... Didn't work at all for me. Same with Resistance 2, I just finished that about half an hour ago -- it has the exact same problems with the story, it's presentation and characters. Shooters really need to start having more interesting story's, I completed Half Life 2, Ep1 + 2 last year with Orange box. Why has no one got to the level that Valve is at? Sorry for the rant, I'm just tired of the same ****. :/
