Many of us are well versed in the awesome religion known as Gears of War. Those of us who are worshipers of the Gears have been keeping a close eye on its sequel’s launch date, November 7th.
At this weekend’s E for All Expo, I had the pleasure of demoing Gears of War 2 in the brand new Horde Mode. Horde mode is a 5-manned, almost non-stop, battle with the Locust. With each wave, the mobs gets scarier, beefier, and more accurate at liquidating your brains. There are a total of 50 waves. E for All groups were only able to reach about wave 16.
