Gears of War 2, arguably the Xbox 360’s most anticipated exclusive of the year, is launching today, November 7th, around the world. In celebration of its release, we posted no less than four (4) stories yesterday that were directly related to either the game itself or its lead designer, Cliff Bleszinski.I counted.
As for other stuff, well…Activision doesn’t want to publish a game it can’t “exploit” (read: milk); we won’t see the 67th episode of RetroforceGO! until next week; Dennis Hopper finally admits that he only played King Koopa in theSuper Mario Bros.movie for the money; and much more happened on 11/06/08.
