How do you get into the beta early? I know Bulletstorm owners gets in the 18th but how do you get in today? That said i will be on like 24/7 starting the the 18th Portal 2 have to wait until the beta is over =).

Is this game faster than Gears 1? Rod Fergusson said it would be between the 2. And Gears 1 was really fast so i hope its not that fast.

its fast! i think its the fastest. i always thought gears 1 was the slowest. Anyways i got it early because of microsoft expertzone.

Eh? Gears 1 was dope fast, i have a hard time believing this is faster have you even played Gears 1 man? That was the main complaint about Gears 2 how slow it was, personally i liked the "slowness" better since in Gears 1 shotgun was overpowered. Only weapons that could stop you while you where rushing was a the torque bow and a sniper headshot.

yeah i played it. check my achieve,ents- have almost every single one. I was also my most played game of 2006-2007. I guess i just always though the running in gears 2 was faster and i guess thats what made gears 2 seem faster for me. But again i think gears 3 is the fastest of the two. My friend and I should have some HD youtube vids tomorrow so you can jude it yourself. The best thing about the game though is- hardly any lag!

Played the beta today, not faster than Gears 1, felt slower than Gears 2 at first, but once i got a hang of it, it felt a bit faster (still slower than Gears 1). Was dope though, hardly noticed any lag, host advantage is gone.

It also has better weapon balance although i still think the gnasher is op, the new shotgun is so so, but not as good as the gnasher, chainsaw is back to gears 1 glory. But i still think it comes short of the retro launcher, hammerburst is no longer op, great improvemetns across the board, except for that gnasher is still the best weapon in the game since you spawn with it, sigh. Think veterans of both games (like me) is gonna like this game very much once it hits.
