[QUOTE="LTomlinson21"]

Who ever had the pictures of them squatting, take off the neck pad. You don't need that, build strength in that area where it is so you don't need it.

Anyways, Gears was good, but Halo 3 feels better to me in almost every way. Gears was full of glitches, even though ranked was never too much of an issue of them I thought. The campaign was weak, online was against you and friends, especially at 4v4 max. Total lack of weapons and Halo 3 weaspons are more balanced. Gears is still a great game, though.

halo 3 weapons are more balanced ? are you serious ? :lol:

At least every weapon in H3 has a counter to it. If you're GOOD (the key word here) then you will know that every weapon has its own weakness. It's called strategy, something Gears never really got the hang of. Every weapon in Gears either feels worthless or overpowered. Think about the 'cheap' weapons in H3: The sword takes forever to lock on, plasma/spike grenades will win every time against a sword op. Shotguns are powerful up close but once again, plasma/spike grenades will at least net you a counter-kill. Rockets are just generally dumb-luck, if you die from a rocket you're probably standing right next to the guy who fired it. Sniper rifles are harder to use, and unless you stick your head out constantly then you won't get killed, watch for the bullet trail and get out of the way. Needlers are quite possibly the easiest 'homing' weapon to dodge, find a rock and crouch. Heavy weapons are powerful but you move twice as slow and can't use grenades, try jumping and getting behind them.

So explain to me how Gears is more balanced.

Gears MP is terrible, every gametype feels the same. Its just so damn boring. Halo has DM, TDM, CTF, Assault, Infection, Territories, Oddball, King of the Hill, VIP not to mention you can make your own gametypes. There is more variety in Halo than Gears could ever hope to have. Not to mention more weapons, better maps, vehicles, and a lot of very small tactical considerations to keep in mind without turning it into some faux-future Ghost Recon. Not to mention there are twice as many players on Halo as GoW, which says something. GoW was a letdown, they ruined it, it isn't unique at all, it isn't fun or varied at all.

Sorry to say, GoW was probably the biggest letdown I've had in awhile.  It didn't live up to any of the hype.  Single play was eh, and multiplayer was just a bunch of deathmatch variants.  Graphics were the only saving grace for that game.

You're paying for several DVD's (which won't be on YouTube in HD or probably anything else), a helmet that you can't get anywhere else (which you could probably sell on eBay and make twice the price of the game), and a 60 dollar game with the collector case. So for some of us that's worth it. Price? If you have a job, then just preorder it and pay a few bucks at a time...it's not that expensive overall. If anything, maybe the pricetag and supposed limited shipments will keep the whiny little 10 and unders off H3 for a few months.

Are there any other commands besides the clear cache and clear patch maintenance commands?  Any way to do anything a little more useful?

Theres no way in hell MS would ever do that. MS realizes that the majority of TVs in homes today do not have HDMI hookups, and most normal people dont want to throw down 30+ bucks for a cable. The point of 360 is that you have choice, people like me who couldnt care less about HD movies (and dont have a 1080p TV to begin with) dont have to pay 200 bucks extra to have it installed. And yea, that picture is so obviously inverted. Besides, PS3 isnt selling worth a sh*t anyway.
