I'll take you up on that, not a Baird fan. These codes aren't region locked or anything are they?leng jai said:

I'm in the Uk, I'll PM you mine and you find out.leng jai said:
I don't know about gameplay, but graphically everything else looks better. I was playing GOW2 last night and the difference between it and GOW3 graphically is big. Much better lighting, better looking models, better texture work just better everything in regards to graphics.BigJiantRobut said:

What am I doing wrong?
I'm at the start where I have to shoot the big ass Leviathan monster. I get to the 3rd part where Braid & Cole aren't ready & I have to push him off again. I'm shooting non-stop, with only breaks when my Gatling gun overheats, but I keep getting the game over screen on that part.
I did this 3 times & died on all 3 tries.

Except image quality. Gears 3 has no anti-aliasing, whereas Gears 2 looks much cleaner.charsace said:
Not that I personally care, I prefer a few jaggies and gloriously stable 30fps rather than the variable catastrophe that was Gears 2's framerate, clean or not.
Gears 3's lighting is simply beautiful, especially the shadows.
Silly question but are you shooting it in the eyes? I think that's the key.See You Next Wednesday said:

I have IO skins that I'm willing to trade for anything that isn't Commando Dom or Savage Elite!

What's the consensus on installed vs DVD drive?
IIRC Bayonetta and other games actually run shittier off the Hard Drive

Can anyone confirm yet whether or not the Savage Grenadier Elite is packed in with the game or if Walmart will email a code in the U.S.?

yep...found this out after I bought the GoD version of Bayo. I have always played it installed though, so I don't know what the differences are.

That issue was with legacy games (which were doing additional caching routines that didn't need to be done once installed). Newer games should all support detecting HDD installation and optimizing loads for that._dementia said:

I'm so upset with myself, I contemplated all day yesterday at work about purchasing this and I decided to wait until I got home and missed out on Release Day Delivery shipping I did still at least get the $20 Credit
Game's looking fantastic and heaps better than Gears 2 (even though I loved it)

Finished Act 1. So far, so good.
So glad I got this early and played the campaign over the weekend. Fantastic seeing everyone's reactions and impressions for the campaign with no worries of spoilers.
It's a hell of a ride, enjoy it!
Will be great seeing the explosion of players online. The discrepancy for players on TDM vs the other modes was huge, want to see if that continues now that it's out for everyone.

So how doe co-op work? Does one start a save and friends then drop in and out or do you have to finish with same person\set of people?
Also, I chose to do normal campaign. Is arcade any different?

Retro and gnasher.
Retro has a big kick increase and SOS doesn't down undamaged anymore.
Played co-op until 3am, was pretty good. No longer can you stay behind your chest high wall and just pick enemies off at your leisure. Now the lambent enemies attack in different ways and do a decent job at keeping you on your toes. Happy the friendly AI is much improved since there were a few firefights where we were getting our asses handed to us. Not sure how I feel about the game carrying on even after both players are downed, allowing the AI to revive you, since it makes the game easier. Will have to wait and see if the game continues to hold your hand in later Acts.
So Cliff can you no longer join Horde Matches in Progress through Regular matchmaking? If so that shit is extremely disappointing, and needs to be changed back to the Gears of War 2 social matchmaking style. I loved knowing that if someone left, there was a chance someone else would join to help me finish. now if a player leaves, your pretty much screwed, unless someone from a friends list joins you. Matchmaking also takes forever when searching for a horde match :/
