Does it really matter that much? He hasn't even posted anything in here since May, or something like that... besides, it sounds like he at least had some of his facts straight.

In an interview with Cliffy B. that I watched on G4TV the other day, he said that they have "throtted down" (his words) the achievements in GoW2, so that when you're going for something like a headshot achievement, you only get one credited headshot per match. According to what he stated, it seemed to the developers like a lot of people got "tunnel vision" when these kinds of achievements were being unlocked in the original game.

The human shield is supposed to provide you with a certain amount of protection, depending on what kind of weapon is being fired at you. Cliffy called it a "get out of jail free card", and the body will explode once it can't take any more damage.

Personally, I was more excited for this game after listening to this interview... and I am just a moderate fan of the first GoW.

That's all too true. I can't tell you how many times I've heard "I'm going for such and such achievement". Really? That's great. How about trying to get the "I'm going to pull my weight and help the team win before this OME6A guy shotguns me in the face" achievement.

Once I get GoW2 (especially after just watching the game's trailer on E3), you can count on this being my motto... provided you will be playing GoW2, that is.

Really? I could have sworn that I posted information about this GoW2 limited edition in the "Gears of War 2" thread... I pre-ordered my copy over the weekend. I even included a link so people could see what I was talking about.

Yeah... here's the link:

Lol well they are adding a new bundle. Maybe you guys remember the Collector's Edition for Halo 3 that brought Master Chief's helmet? Well GOW is doing the same as well, except instead of like the COG helmet, it will be a lancer. I just hope it's not a mini one like they did with Master Chief's helmet


EDIT: I forgot to mention there are even more features. and that the collector's edition will be 130 bux.

Gears 2 will use what's being called Linked Achievements. Players who played Gears 1 and completed Act 1 will be able to play as Carmine in Gears 2's multiplayer. If you killed Raam at the end of Gears 1 his character model will be available as well. There will be more Linked Achievements in Gears 2, but those were the only examples given.

You'll see Carmine brother Anthony in the game.

and much more. check out this link to see the GoW2 Panel Report:
