Day Two, Gears of War

Tonight I was able to put in another couple hours with the game. The more I play, the more I enjoy the game. Last night I left off having just reached the Beserker. I really expected to struggle through this part but oddly, I was able to get by only having been killed a couple times (2, maybe 3) before succeeding. I’m still far from a “run” master but that’s fine.
Tonight I participated in some large-scale battles. Tonight I spent much of the evening with just one comrade, the other two were holding down the fort elsewhere.
Worked through the first vehicle driving scenario and met a host of new enemies. Some real badasses (believe they are called Boomers) that could withstand many sniper shots to the head, not to mention the multiple grenades lobbed at them.
Day turned into night, which brought with it the Krill. They are much like a swarm of bats that attack you almost instantly once you enter the darkness. You have to find ways to light your path in order to survive in the dark. Fun stuff.
I ended the evening meeting up with some irradiated wretches, enemies of an explosive kind (literally).
Based on what I’ve seen in this guide, I’m about half-way through the game. What a shame actually. At this rate I’ll beat it before the weekend is over.
