Very nice!

hope it gets extended to a week like the E3 one did...

Just got this from @iFlak today

LUCKY, that is badass

I am going to get this and Gears 1 in the next week. I have been wanting to play this series for some time....now I can afford too. (found both together for under $25 through amazon.com. They are in my shopping cart. Heh)

sweet, I need someone to go through the campaign on Insane on both games with

If you get the Gears 2 GoY edtn you get all the maps free...

I don't really plan on playing multiplayer much, if at all. I will reserve that for Gears3. So I probably will not dish out the extra $10 or so to get the goty.

shouldn't be any extra for goty, it's like $30 new in store, idk about amazon though, havent looked...

Regular I could get for about $15 and GOTY was $10 more from what I could see. I will look more deeply when I am ready to buy. If I can I will get GOTY but I don't see the point in paying extra for the maps/DLC when I don't really plan to use them much if I even use them at all. What I want is the single player so I can go through the story line and what not. Kinda for gearing up for Gears3.
