A whole new game hopefully, i'm happy with unreal and Gears, EA can stay away from those please.

Agreed

Anybody tried Madden 2009 yet? Not talking about the demo either.

Nemesis IX : Hey were gonna do an Xbox Live meetup for Gears or Halo 3 soon. You down???

Yeah for Gears i am, let me know when.

Damn. I washoping you were up for Halo 3 :p Ok I will go pick up Gears again. Then maybe next weekend we can get everybody together for that...

krogan comes play gears with us. If i win, Sony Wins, if you win...you still lose.

soory pimp, i broke my halo 3 game disc because i thought it would be more fun than the game, it was(not kidding). you will never win Dudeman, i have lifetime 18,500 kills with over 2,000 headshots, you can't beat me. Krogan is rearly on but he better show up for this.

I just want to chainsaw krogan a few times and i'll be happy. Of course i doubt he owns the game. He's all talk and no action.

dudeman: Damn it you can't cop my style either. Thats my reverse psychology tactic.

But it makes me wonder if he does own Gears. Guess we will find out :p

on the leaderboards krogan has some stats so he has played the game. so got a time for this gears show?

warhawk is this saturday. we just need to set up a time when everyone can meet up. Krogan are you in or are you gonna hide behind your words?

Nemesis IX: We can do next Saturday the 23rd. I will buy Gears again. I know it dropped in price. After WarHawk tomorrow I will put up a forum thread.

I need to get some serious practice in now... I prefer 12:00 PM PST because its not to early and not too late. If anybody can suggest a better time I'm all ears.



Just click on my name and all my um e-mail addresses are listed. I got the IM's running for all 4.

nice, 8:00 PM GMT for me.

So are you in the UK or Ireland??? We could always do 12:00 EST too. I'm open to whatever.

Ireland, now that i think about it, i can't Saturday i always work Saturday(Still a student). you go ahead unless you'se don't mind switching the night.

Nemesis IX: Nah it's negotiable. Do you work on Sunday too??? Theres quite a few of us who have access to both the PS3 and 360. Plus alot of just 360 owners. Tell me what day works for you and I will start organizing...

Besides next weekend is perfect my kids will be with thier mom So I am available all weekend.

i hope to be off that sunday, i'll find out tomorrow.

krogan you disappoint me. You just refuse to show up.

I doubt you own gears.

...
