Days Three-Five, Gears of War

Sorry for not updating on my progress since Thursday evening. I didn’t get to play all that much on Friday but did progress through most of the third act on Friday and then finished it up on Saturday. Worked through better part of the fourth act on Saturday, again, finishing it up on Sunday. Tonight I wrapped up the evening by working through the fifth act, ending my evening after dying against the final boss. The final boss is named General RAAM. He is one tough badass.
Having made it nearly all the way through the game, fully expecting to be able to wrap up tomorrow evening (would do it tonight but don’t really want to), I’d have to say that my biggest disappointment is the length. The game is so much fun to play that you really crave more. The good news is that the world Epic has created certainly could stand to have a few more games based in it. Of course, I don’t know how the game ends, just yet, I’m hoping they don’t go making it impossible to have sequels.
I haven’t yet tried any of the multiplayer features but have a few co-workers that I should be able to hookup with so we fully intend on taking the fun online. I expect that the online co-op will be pretty fun. I’m not so sure how the other online game types will be though, co-op seems to be the most appealing, for me anyways.
