We played for like an hour and he hardly said a sentence.

I killed lots of things though.

Mortar ftw.

Oh my god, the beginning is NOTHING. It's kind of disappointing for people looking to buy the game - you usually end up playing the first hour and that's it. Well the first hour is complete shit compared to what comes.

Goddamn what a beautiful game.

Damnit Phil. Why do you taunt me so.

To be fair to Phil. I think he is underplaying the game.

It is truly an awesome awesome experience.

The multiplayer is much expanded with stuff like Hordes, which I have played a great deal more of than campaign.

Tons of new multiplayer types that myself, Uber and Vampyr tried out last night.

You have wingmen which is 5 teams of 2 for a change. You have Guardian which is similar to VIP in Halo except you have to kill the Guardian to stop the other team from respawning.

Meatflag which is Capture the Flag with a Live Target, which I learned the hard way isn't as easy as you would think when they don't want to go with you.

Oh god I played Coop with my brother last night. What an amazing game for Coop. None of this small-screen divided shit.

I hated the vehicle session in Gears 1.

And the first one in Gears 2 was not that impressive. (Ice Lake for those who played the game)

But the escape at the end of Act 4 was friggin awesome.

Only part of the ice level that annoyed me was having to die several times to memorize where the mortars hit.

Thought driving down the actual mountains was very fun though.
