    This. 2nd playthrough, around 54 hours so far. Amazing game in spite of itself.

    Also, I need to beat Gears 2 before I play Gears 3.

    Also, I need to beat Gears 1.

    I've never been into video games and don't own a PS4 or Xbox, but after watching the trailers for that game, I'm on the fence about making the investment.

    My biggest complaint with the Gears games have always been that the controls tend to be a little squirrely trying to jump in and out of cover or over objects, and also I shouldn't have to hold down a button to pick up ammo for a weapon I'm holding that I have room for ammo for. Otherwise, I love the game world and characters.

    I think I'm going to go home tonight and fire up some Gears 2 for a bit.

    it does take some getting used to the whole "a" to sprint thing always messes me up.........i look forward to getting slaughtered for a few hours online while i get my bearings again........haven't played gears anything in over a year...........

    Nearly finished Red Dead Redemption then I don't know where to start; Deus Ex, Gears 3 or the other handful of games that are awaiting me. I used to game about 4 days a week for a couple hours each. Now, I'm lucky if I can squeeze in 2 hours a week so I am WAY behind.

    Deus Ex....good premise, but it sucked, they made it overly difficult

    Nothing like hearing negatives about the game you've ordered a week ago! I was a big fan of the first one many years ago as was my brother and he loved the new one hard. See what happens.

    Red Dead sucked for the first few hours for me, I went straight from GTA4 to that and got so bored. So I shelved it for about 6 months and have only picked it up again in the last 2 months. It gets better and better and I'm glad I stuck with it.
