    Gamestop has listed 3 different versions of the game but they haven't said what will be in them. What do you want or expect from them? just for reference standard edition is $59.99, limited edition is $79.99, and epic edition is 149.99. which will you be purchasing?

    I got the special edition of Gear of War 2 and never looked at the other disk. The game is enough for me. I don't want to be tricked into buying extra stuff that I never use.

    no....falling....for....special....editions...again....ghhhaaaaa.


    Gears 2 is one of my favorite games not because of stupid side stuff like "story" and "universe" but because it's one of the best 3rd person shooter experiences on the market. I don't see how side stuff would add to the experience. Gimmie a great campaign and horde and I'm good.

    Probably the limited edition. I really don't want to spend 150 bones on one game.

    Standard.  I bought the Collectors Edition of Gears of War 2, and afterwards I just didn't understand why I did it.  A art book that I flipped through once and a pretty crappy documentary that didn't have any info I couldn't have got off a site like Gametrailers or even GB.  Oh and a gold lancer...because that didn't look like the cheesiest piece of garbage ever.   I'm done with collecting video game swag and "collectibles".  If they are basically printing unlimited copies of these things then nothing in it is very collectible anyway. 

    Despite my negativity towards the special editions of this game, I am really looking forward to Gears 3, especially the campaign.   I hope they show more of it at E3 this year.

    Just the standard edition as of right now, but might go higher depending on how the job situation goes.

    Just standard for moi. All I really care about is the story. Probably won't even play it much after I beat that.

    I was thinking Black version, but I dunno; I might go with White.
