The Gaming Rx

For a while we’ve been hinting that we had a new project we’ve been working on. At last, it’s online and ready to go! Introducing The Gaming Rx, your source for all gaming on all platforms! Why did we create The Gaming Rx? Well, it’s easy to get burnt out on a game, now we have every game…including of course Gears of War / Gears of War 2. This site will remain up so anyone can access the wealth of information that is already here but in the future we’ll be spending most of our time posting in the new The Gaming Rx Forums.

Head over to The Gaming Rx and become a member! :)

by PWNiSH3R on Sep.03, 2009, under Gears of War News

gears-of-war-2

Epic and Microsoft have teamed up to give gamers the chance to earn double experience points in Gears of War 2 this Labor Day weekend. There’s also the chance to play against Epic devs in a “Game with Developer” event taking place on Friday.

The event will run from Friday morning, Sept 4th till Tuesday morning, Sept 8th (Eastern time)

  • Double experience for all Horde games and Public multiplayer games
  • Winning team gets a 500 xp bonus in Public multiplayer
  • Public Horde will default to Hardcore difficulty instead of Normal
  •  Horde will be infected with Sires, just like the Ticker attack of July 4th
  •  Hardcore Horde (Public or Private) will receive an extra experience boost (essentially double Hardcore will be the same as double Insane)
  • The Game with Developer event will take place on Friday, Sept. 4th from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Look for the following Gamertags and send off an invite:

    EpicDarkCorner1
    EpicDarkCorner2
    EpicDarkCorner3
    EpicDarkCorner4
    EpicDarkCorner5
    EpicDarkCorner6
    EpicDarkCorner7

Gears “Imulsion” Energy Drink Detailed

by PWNiSH3R on Sep.03, 2009, under Gears of War News

matrixcollectibles_2065_261621058

Not enough sugar, caffeine and vitamin B12 in your life? Check out Boston America’s new licensed Imusion energy drink, inspired by the glowing goop from Gears of War. Unlike the yellowish fuel from the game, Imulsion does not turn drinkers into Lambent drones, instead giving them “a new form of tasty energy”.

Imulsion sells for $3 per 250ml can.

[Important!!] GWA Message

by PWNiSH3R on Aug.28, 2009, under GWA Clan News

untitled

This message is to tell everyone one that is wanting to “join the clan.” We are not accepting any new members at this time. We will not be hosting any official competitions for a while (maybe ever) due to the amount of douchebags we’ve had to deal with in the past./lack of participation.. etc.

I still would like for all of the “Clan members” and well.. everyone else for the matter, to come and check back on this site for anything Gears. Even though we will not be doing anything “clan related” I will still keep the Gears of War Addicts site up-to-date as best as I can (prolly not quite as much ,but i will) this is still Gears of War Addicts…

My passion for video games has not died out.. Myself and the other Chairman have talked about a few ideas lately and may implement them soon. I’m not sure how any of this going to pan out.. but we will figure somthing out and will keep everyone posted.

Thanks,

         PWNiSH3R ;)

Gears 2 Development Costs Revealed

by PWNiSH3R on Aug.27, 2009, under Gears of War News

gow2box

In a recent conference speech, Epic Games founder Tim Sweeney revealed the development cost of Gears of War 2, putting it somewhere around the $12 million mark – a surprisingly modest sum for a current-gen blockbuster.

Tim also revealed that Gears of War 2 took 15 programmers and 45 artists over two years to create.

Addict of the week 20

This week was a pretty tough descion for me and the other Chairman.. After much debating on who should be “Addict of The Week” We decided to choose xGWAxBaGelEATER aka DraftyJordan. BaGelEATER was on Gears 2 alot this week. Even though I didn’ play as much as I would of liked to. When I was on he was either playing Gears with us, or he was playing with other clan members pretty much all week.

Congrats xGWAxBaGelEATER!

What Needs To Be in Gears of War 3

by PWNiSH3R on Aug.12, 2009, under Gears of War News

gears_3

Gears of War is awesome yet it never hit the top of the live usage charts and it gets criticized like no other even after 4 title updates. If Epic could make the following changes/additions, I think this would easily be atop the usage charts and dive deeper into the hearts of the average gamer.
