After The Fact: Reviews Revisited

Update: DLC
Posted: May 10, 2009 10:07 pm PT
On 3/31/2009, Microsoft released a second pricey ($10) add-on for Gears of War 2: the Snowblind Map Pack. It includes three brand-new maps: Grind Yard, Under Hill, and Courtyard. The fourth map is Fuel Depot, a reworked map from the original Gears of War.

    So why isn't there a review for Valkyria Chronicles posted yet? It's a very progressive blend of genres, a rarity in a time of "Gears of Resisting Fallout 3".

    Wow 2008 is one heck of a gaming year when there's 6 games I wanna play coming out in 1 week. Amazing.

  • WarblazerTM

    Posted Nov 4, 2008 5:53 pm PT

    Omg why the hell did they release Legendary at the same time as resistance and gears of war 2?

    They can say goodbye to their sale rates now.
    Bloody morons.
    On a sidenote watch out for me on gears 2 as I'll probably be stomping your brains out.

    Got Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2 on pre-order. I still have not beaten Fable 2, Little Big Planet, or Fallout 3 yet, so I am going to have a busy month.

  • DAKYON

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 4:15 pm PT

    go resistance 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • NatendoWhisky64

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 4:02 pm PT

    "ps3 kills all"
    "gears2 will own everything"

    Shut up. Each system is superior than the other in different categories. I could make the argument that the DS is the best because you can write on the screen; you can't do that with the 360 or PS3. People have game preferences; personally, I enjoy 360 games more than other systems, but I don't bash other people's opinions. Gears players are bound to like Gears 2 and Resistance players are going to like Resistance 2. Arguing about it makes very little sense.

    Oh yeah, grammar rocks.

  • JMAN320

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 3:35 pm PT

    resistance is going to give way more gameplay then gears.

  • mohfrontline

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 3:04 pm PT

    Gears 2 is the only one that interests me. Maybe Resistance if I had a PS3.

  • BHK-25

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 3:02 pm PT

    Fallout 3, little big planet, resistance 2, naruto and valkyria chronicles. So many games in so little time, wished i had the money and time for them all...

  • SnoSlider-PS3-

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 2:39 pm PT

    Can't believe how many rounds of ammo it takes to put a Locust down on Gears. Is the competitive multiplayer the same? Is there an on-line co-op?

  • Media_Mind

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 2:19 pm PT

    Resistence 2 and Naurto Ninja Storm!!

  • UltimateTadashi

    Posted Nov 3, 2008 1:40 pm PT
