I didn't see anything you wrote that was an excuse for the thumbs down.I did manage two play and beat both Gears at a friends house(liked Gears 1 a lot more than Gears 2)and would like for both of them to come to the PS3 in 2011.I am though a bit curious to who here thinks Halo ODST(expansion)can possibly win anything, especially going against the monster that is Uncharted 2 :-)
