Release Body: Gamestation, the fast growing UK
video and computer game retailer, has predicted that the soon-to-released
Gears of War 2 video game will be the biggest selling
Xbox 360 game of the year. The third person tactical action game
from Epic Games and Microsoft Studios
has been eagerly awaited since the original Gears of War
was released in 2006.
In
Gears
of War 2, the Locust has found a way to make giant
emergence holes capable of destroying entire cities at once. The
game joins Marcus Fenix and the rest of the COG Delta Squad as
they now begin drilling underground to "take the fight to
the Locust".
To
celebrate the launch of Gears
of War 2 on Xbox 360, Gamestation
has created a special "Gears of War 2 Section"
where customers can buy Gears of War action figures,
T-shirts, baseball caps and the game itself, in either the standard
version or the Limited
Edition Gears of War.
The
limited edition version of Gears of War 2 comes
with a variety of added features including "Beneath the Suraface:
An Inside Look at Gears of War 2", a 48 page, hardbound book
featuring character profiles, exclusive concept art and a foreword
by Design Director, Cliff Bleszinski. Also included is a bonus
DVD containing exclusive footage of the making of the game, design
galleries with audio commentary by Epic Games and promotional
videos. The limited edition version of Gears of War 2
also includes an Xbox Live code that allows users to
unlock a gold plated Lancer Assault Rifle for online play.
The
official Gears
of War Strategy Guide will also
be available at Gamestation and customers will
also be able to order their copy of the game with a Gears
of War action figure 4-pack included. The original Gears
of War figure box set is also still available.
Gears
of War 2 will be available from the 7th of November.
