Gears of War for the Xbox 360 - how do you beat a kid

themave

This game is great, got if the first day it came out and have been playing it ever since, I am 45 and my son is 15, he just kickes my butt, no matter how much I practice, No matter how many tips he gives me, he still beats me. but it is pretty fun, glad I can almost keep up with him anyways.

Anyone else hooked on this game ?

I am terrified of the Xbox. As an MVP, we see it at every session we attend, and everywhere we go. There are so many opportunities to get one and the games, etc. I am most scared that one day MS will just send me one, and say , HEY TEST THIS FOR US.

No I spend enough time on mibuso.com and dynamicsusers.org , I just could not imagine what would happen to productivity if I got an Xbox.

That's the difference between being a consultant and working for someone else, in an office. I work 8 - 5 Monday thru Friday. When I leave the office, I don't really do any work until the next day. Now mibuso.com and dynamicsusers.org, they are a distraction while at work. but it is sort of related to work, since I am learning things that help here.

Problem is that the very few times in my life when I had a "job", I also worked a "normal" 65-70 hour week, so at least this way it's MY 70 hour week.

Still I know where you are coming from.

70 hour week?
Are you taking it slow, David?

70 hours! Wow, that sounds great. I wish I could have that. :shock:

70 hours on GOW maybe, but not work

Halo2 also.

trying to sign up for HALO 3 beta, now that is my kind of beta testing

When you say you work 70 hours a week, are you saying you're billing 70 hours a week?

"- Well, when I say 'house' it was only a hole in the ground covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us.
- We were evicted from our hole in the ground; we had to go and live in a lake.
- You were lucky to have a lake! There were a hundred and fifty of us living in a shoebox in the middle of a road.
- Cardboard box?
- Aye.
- You were lucky. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank."

I am not sure what any of the post have to do with, certainly not Gears of War or the Xbox 360, I guess David did mention xbox as being shown at all the microsoft events.

Maybe we need a new topic

Dynamic's pro's who have no outside life, or something like that (lol)

Ask your good friend Mr Google to tell you about Monty Python and the four Yorkshire men sketch.

Well my wife sometimes asks if there is life outside the xbox 360, so I guess it is all relative on what you enjoy. 8)

Deadlizard,

That post is quoted from the four old men of Monty Python who make a competition of complaining how hard their youth was - I intended it as sarcastic remark pointing out that the topic sliding towards complaining about hard the life is for the poor, poor consultant...
