Gears of War 2 Game of the Year Edition is happening. GameStop is now taking pre-orders for a newly packaged version of the billion-year-old shooter. Priced at $39.99, this edition’s value stems from the ten s--tloads of downloadable content thrown into the mix. The "All Fronts Collection" -- nineteen multiplayer maps and the ‘deleted scene’ campaign mission -- ships with it as (update) a redeemable code.
If you’ve been looking for a way to get into Gears of War 2 on the cheap without going the “Used” route, this seems like the best way to do it. The game is a rollercoaster of awesome and the multiplayer component isn’t too shabby if you stay away from the majority of public people (read: cheaters).
Gears 2 GOTY hits GameStop September 1st.

(In reference to a glitch) "We've known about that glitch for forever. We decided not to do anything about it"
They decided Gears 2 really would be a true Xbox 360 exclusive, unlike Gears of War and Mass Effect.
@brainderailment:
That's from the new Dark Corners DLC.
Do you see the Xbox 360 as the main platform as opposed to the PC? During the whole Unreal time it was very much PC focused.
The PC right now is a fair amount different to what it was back in the day, with all the badly integrated video chips. Here's the problem right now; the person who is savvy enough to want to have a good PC to upgrade their video card, is a person who is savvy enough to know bit torrent to know all the elements so they can pirate software. Therefore, high-end videogames are suffering very much on the PC.
So piracy was a main point for you...
Right now, it makes sense for us to focus on Xbox 360 for a number of reasons. Not least PCs with multiple configurations and piracy.
But when the dust has settled, is there any possibility of Gears 2 on PC?
No.
Definitely not?
No.
WHO GAVE THIS GAME A GOTY AWARD?
Don't forget about him bench-pressing his employees, with his grunting sounding like he's saying "HOST".
The only thing Gears 2 had was it's single player.
I bet a cereal box company woudlnt call that game of the year due to the fact they would lose their credibility.
;D
