Gears of War 3 Fanboys Set Record for Pre-orders

Sorry! I meant to take the bias subjugation out of that title, but I guess it is just too late now.

So, GoW3 pre-orders have broken the 1 million mark. This makes it the fastest selling exclusive pre-order title in Xbox 360 history. Ok, first off, I don’t know where to begin. Letter 1) I hate completely obscure and ultimately pointless broken records and awards. Not once in high school or real life have I been given an award for being the only person with the name Derrin Kuhn to grow up in a small town, leave the country and blog for a living. [Achievement Unlocked].

Number B) I wasn’t impressed with the GoW3 Beta. It felt sluggish. I know it is a “beta,” but they are there to fix bugs, not speed up the tank speed Marcus. It impresses me 1 million people jump on board to buy a game I’m sure I’ll see discounted and in the bargain bin soon enough.

With my rant over, good job Epic! Way to give the blood-loving, goar-craving fans what they want.
