Halo: Reach is bad enough..I gotta get all of the daily and weekly challenges done. so sad lmao

haha, it's what they do..but on the plus side, it's less money you'll spend on console gaming  Liked that there was 4 classes with 8 skill trees...definitely would keep things interesting. especially PVP. |

I played a few rounds this morning. Did alright 10 kills 11 deaths. It's pretty fun. I never played the other two online much because of how hardcore they were. I am digging the new deathmatch mode.

I am going to at lunch and pre-ordering. Just do it online. Save the gas and hassle of having to go into a Gamestop. |

Thanks, Steve, but honestly my local GS is about 150 yards from our office driveway, so walking distance (please note that the term "walking distance' is only an expression ). Steve how was the flow of it? Actually what I mean more directly how are the dedicated servers? Thank you in advance. |

Steve, your 8 words above mean some much to the success of the online portion of that game.
That is great to hear. Thanks, man.

Yeah I never really dug online in the first two. In One they made it impossible to play Ranked with friends and in two it had so many issues that it was a glitch fest. Gears 3 really like it's own game. It's old but fresh at the same time.

It was a baffling ordeal to get online and match up.
except for horde mode I bailed on it with the 2nd game.

 Yes it is up for Bulletstorm Epic Edition owners. You have to use your Epic Edition code in the box to unlock the beta access though.

Played 5 matches but my team lost them all. I went from sucking...no kills during first 2 matches, had team mates asking if I was planning on killing anything. On my last match I had the high score...still no clue what I was doing I can't remember the controls to save my life

The Retro Lancer has more recoil than I was expecting. But it keeps it from being completely OP, I suppose. I've had more luck using the regular Lancer. I'm also getting better at my timing with the sawed off shotgun. First day of the beta I think I missed almost every shot. XD
I have been enjoying the beta, so far. It's kind of weird, but not many people use mics, so I don't have to hear a bunch of people talking crap. I'm sure that will change when the full version releases, but for now it's a nice change of pace.
