Beers and Gears – Gears of War 2 – Xbox 360
Oil up those lancers, grind your gears and prepare for the
messiest way to end the working week.
Warning – These sessions can go on quite late and have been known to transition
into Texas Holdem grudge matches.
Hook up – Friday evening is generally when you’ll find the
most unpredictable conversations and outcomes, but with so many users it’s easy
to setup an ad hoc game.

Thanks for the game last night guys. Sorry I had to bail without saying goodbye. I hate that! 
Thanks to Currierox as well for the Pinnacle of my Gears career, with a great game of Wingman!

Not a problem mate, I dont know what happened during that game, either everyone just dropped their game a little bit or i found the zone for the duration off that match. Couldnt have done it without you, with you on my side I couldnt help but think that we had take that cheering us on from the sidelines lol

No idea whether it was that game, it was the wingman game on the fuel depot map.

Just all fell into place for me during that game, but whenever I play like that and try to replicate it in the next match it always goes wrong!!

Not sure if anyone wants to do a Bears and Gears weekend, but they're repeating what they did a few weeks ago by upping the XP multiplier by 1 for every 1000 fans they get on their official Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/gearsofwar
Currently at about 22,000 fans so that's x22 experience

Alright dudes.
Been aaaages since I've put the Gears 2 CD in the tray – but this sounds like a good laugh. Probably won't arrive on the scene till after the missus departs for bed though.. about 10-11pm? I'll supply the Guinness.

Hey guys, sorry I just kinda jumped in and jumped out quickly and quietly last night but only had a short window of opportunity before cheese, wine and 24 with the good lady! As you could see, just started playing this as only level 2. Had a couple of random online games before joining you guys last night and I have to say I am very impressed with this game's multiplayer and will be wanting to play more of this – loads of fun and loads of variety it seems.
Currierox, I am still rolling with my XLC's and had problems again with audio. Will have to upgrade to X11's when I can justify the outlay (already bought three games, a USB, a Streetfighter pad and microsoft points this month!)
Once again, mightily impressed with this game – I want more!

Typical. My mother-in-law's birthday on the 3rd, then my Dad's getting married (yet again) on the 4th. My weekend is kind of spoken for.
WHY DO YOU HATE ME, GOD?!

The multiplier is actually 25x. Who's up for getting a party together that weekend and doing the really rude cheaty thing where you can cheat and get infinite XP, yeah? Malc knows how to do it!

I definitely want to get in on some x25 action. I've always felt slightly out of depth with Gears online but hopefully some of the veterans can give me a helping hand.

But it sounds like a fun time was had by all who played, and that's what's important.
So who got their arses out then?
