    Players who have acquired Gears of War 2 ahead of its release date have already unlocked the 'Seriously 2.0' achievement.

    'Seriously...' was a notoriously tough achievement in Gears of War, requiring players clock up 10,000 kills in multiplayer.

    However, despite 'Seriously 2.0' now needing 100,000 kills, because kills fromevery game mode counts, it's much easier to unlock. Friend of OXM, Stefan Hobman, has already unlocked the achievement and provided us with picture proof.

    After unlocking the achievement, he tells us that:
  •  There is NO gamerpic for getting Seriously 2.0, unlike the original Seriously achievement.
  •  It's possible to get 100 kills a minute.
  •  The achievement can be unlocked in under 24 hours actual gameplay time.
  •  The easiest way to get the achievement is by repeatedly playing the last level of Gears of War 2's Campaign mode.

    It's a shame that there's no gamerpic and that the achievement is much easier to unlock, as it means there's unlikely to be a 'badge of honour' achievement in the same way the original Seriously achievement was.

    Which Gears of War 2 achievement do you think will take its place as the toughest to unlock?

    Party like it's 1999 will likely be the achievement that takes the most time.  But it's not something that will be especially difficult.  Other than that every achievement looks to be very easy and getting the full 1,000 will be simple.

    No, it doesn't.  I am greatly appreciative of the fact that they added campaign to the kill-tally.  God knows I won't be playing the game for that long just to attain that achievement.

    This. Copy the words into a word processor and then copy and paste it here, it should make the text white.

    Wait, does that mean that they're rewarding people with it solely for getting it early?
    This is absolutely 100% retarded. Aren't achievements supposed to be about the satisfaction of getting them? No, they're about motherfucking points so you can trashtalk others.

    guys , unlocking seriously 2.0 is not challenging at all . you just need to spend huge amount of time killing enemies in last chapter . the reason that people who played this game before release date say that repeating the last chapter is the easiest way to earn this achievement is simply because you ride a Brumak at that level and as you know it  got two huge turrets and a huge rocket luncher that can kill dozens of enemies with single shot . also Brumak got a vast HP even on hardcore difficultly.

    The achievement is fine.  It's going to take a long time to get it through normal play.  If you really want it and you spend 24 hours straight replaying the same mission over and over, then you're going to get it faster obviously.

    They didn't get the achievement just because they have the game early. They do have the game early, and just happened to get 100,000 kills. Thus, Seriously 2.0.

    WoW Hughes, yous one smart mahn. Jhes you are, Jhes you are!... thats a good Hughes..... have a cookie.

    But Seriously now, Seriously 2.0 is a serious achievement that will be taken seriously by serious gamers, Seriously.
    Getting this achievement can be done in several ways gents, you can if you want to do the "Rig Ride" on betty, en reload the part where the Locust come crawling out, or the brumak, when you reload a checkpoint, the kills will still be added. So riding the brumak till the first gate gets what, 50 or more to say the least ? reload and do it again. Beside i have played or about 8 hours, finished the campaign, did some hord and i am on 2200 kills, and i still need to do two more full COOP runs, one on casual on on insane ( one player gets insane, and takes it easy while the casual player gets mega-kills, this way you sort of get the Insane-completion achievement without having to be l33t-@$$ or insane. ). Prolly will never get this, but then again, "......why so Seriously 2.0"

    That will probably end up being the one achievement that I can't get.

    This is old news. The achievement is pretty self explanatory. You have to get 100,000 kills and it will take a long time. I cant see why someone would write an article about.
