DESCRIPTION
Sequel to the Xbox 360's first truly Epic hit, Gears of War 2 continues the brutally gruesome futuristic, apocalyptic wartime adventures of Marcus Fenix. Set six months after the end of the original Gears of War, the single-player campaign follows Fenix and his COG Delta Squad as they lead the way in humanity's desperate counter-offensive against the Locust, a last-ditch effort to destroy the subterranean scourge where it lives. Players embark on squad-based first-person shooter missions in a desperate assault against an enemy that has no mercy, nor should be given any. New abilities and weapons help in the fight. Portable shields make it safer to advance through open spaces, and when a proper shield is not handy, a fallen enemy can be used for portable cover. Weapons such as the "Mulcher" machine gun and the "Scorcher" flamethrower leave their mark on the destructible environments, as well as on Locust enemies.
Expanded support for co-op play allows two to play through the main campaign together, with support for easy drop-in and -out play, and the option for each teammate to use a different difficulty setting, allowing a veteran COG commando to play alongside a newcomer to the series, and both to still enjoy the right level of challenge. The game also offers a new "Horde" co-op mode, in which up to four players together struggle to fight off wave after wave of increasingly difficult Locust attacks — battling for high scores, and perhaps even to reach the rumored, final 50th wave. In all, the sequel features eight modes of online multiplayer play, including the two-man team "Wingman" mode, a meaty twist on capture-the-flag, called "Submission," in which the "flag" is a computer-controlled character, and "Guardian," a variation of the original game's "Assassin," in which each team receives unlimited respawns until its designated Guardian is killed. ~ T.J.

“That is one of the many reasons that I generally only talk to my friends over party chat. The way some dipshits treat girls is only one of many reasons not to listen to them. Also, is it just me or are the most vocal douchebags usually the worst players?”

“@WILDMAMMOTH agreed, but i admit that i do hate certain people, namely Emo's, but I must always see the bigger picture, so I cannot allow my hatred towards the emo community control me. So I leave them be, but if they come crying to me when it affects me personally then I would give them something to really cry about. ”

“I've not seen that sort of behavior in a long time, but on the other hand, I also don't play those particular games. Most of the people I see playing them at Gamer's Inn are just generally foul mouthed, though, so I suppose I'll probably catch them acting like this toward a girl gamer eventually.
Of course, Dryad goes to the same internet cafe and can easily beat some sense into them if she hears them acting like that. Maybe that's why I never hear any anti-girl talk around there.”

“The one thing I almost constantly find about the types is that they generally don't care who or what their sexual preference, gender or nationality may be. They're just looking for someone's feathers to ruffle. It's a very unfortunate side of online gaming that I feel can mainly be blamed on the anonymity of the Internet. I take solace in the fact most of them are under age or typically too cowardly to say any of their asinine hate speech to any one of the people's faces.
Best defense? Stronger vocabulary, or reverse psychology, imply their hatred is their secret wanting of being whoever whatever they're insulting. I've actually had encouraging success with those tactics, most times without cursing at all. ”

Guys who do this are generally frustrated, young, and have yet to learn the life-saving admonition that "Hell hath no fury...."
Those guys will eventually learn that female gamers (FragDolls as an example) have unmatched patience and more innate group cunning than men. They may not face you head-on, but you'll feel the sting at some point, guaranteed. ”

“I've come across them, and usually ignore them in town once i realize they are just ignorant and lashing out. If they are PMing me I'll put them on my ignore list. I have considered reporting a few times, but never have.
A lot of guys seem to need to show off, & become overly competitive with each other around me, trying to prove they are the alpha. I find that very annoying in team situations.There like several people that I have fun playing with, but I can't mix them.
Also there's very few of them that can suck it up & follow me & do what I tell them. There's been more than 1 occasions that we have failed elite missions after spending a couple of hours working our way to the boss, because they won't listen to me, even though I'm the only 1 in the group that's done it before.
Of course there are some of them that I know there ego won't allow them to follow, so when I play w them I make sure I have confidence that they are up to the task, and then just let them lead.
I'm sure that it has a lot to do with the number of adolescents involved in gaming.”

“I don't think that they're insulting you because you're a girl. They're insulting you because they're idiots.
I'm French and sometimes find myself on the receiving end of the most ridiculous prejudice. I usually play along, something like "wait, I was just eating some fromage in my baguette, but now I'm ready to play". Or I'll face them head on with something like "Don't be cocky, you won because you played better than me, not because you're American". Or just some plain ol' lecturing.
It is my experience that when confronted to meaning of their words, most people will stand corrected. But what applies in my case doesn't have to be true in your case, because those are 2 different kinds and degrees of prejudice.
It has happened to me dozens of times on XBL, so by now I'm more amused than angry when it happens.
And I can always quit and hope that the next people I play with have an IQ greater than a bulldog.
I wish to pint out that most people I chat with online during play are act polite or lively people, and are nice to play with. These idiots are anomalies.
Cheer up, and good game.
Off topic, but might raise your spirits a little bit, the best Left 4 Dead player among my XBL regular friends is a French girl (L4D is the MP game I play the most).”

Here's a question: Do you tell those people who say that to shut the fuck up? Or do you silently do nothing? I wanna hear it.
One other thing, all the games you mention are generally shooters. I think thats a big contributor to the issue here.
A different perspective: The guys talk shit at the other guys they are fragging. Then they frag a girl. Do they: A, not say anything so they don't hurt her feelings? B, talk shit and treat her like the other guys they obviously talk shit about. Which is equal? Neither? Both? Are they supposed to be more considerate? What is sexist or biased in this case? Can you burp and fart in a woman's presence? Or are you the only one offended? Do they even consider what they are saying to be serious? What about the girl? Who's disturbed more, you or her?

“@Avs, If your playing an FPS with an african american, would you shout racist remarks, tell him to go pick cotton, etc. Telling a woman to get back to the kitchen is the same thing.

“With online activities in general it is the fact that people can insult others and get away with it because the other person will never find out who they are. Being online multiplies the worst in people a thousand times. You take some arrogant person in real life and they will be worse online because you don't know who they are. As in the case of guys being mean, and from what I am reading you are implying extra mean though correct me if I am wrong, the only thing I can come up with is ego. They just got humiliated by a girl, so to them they have to insult you to keep their manhood. Though all it really does is makes them look worse than just getting beat. My advice is to try and ignore it and chalk it up to the fact that the internet is full of jerks who think insulting people makes them look cool. However, if things get really out of hand don't hesitate to report them and let them feel the good ol' banstick.”

“the mute button is really great for me on XBL. almost everyone on all those games (except Left 4 Dead kinda surprised to see that game) are jerks who suck really so they try to play mind games. it helps if you think of it like this.
Halo 3: they all still believe in cuddies.
GOW2: Trying so hard to compensate for short comings
COD4: Everyone is a jerk if they have a mic mute them
Halo ODST: look at Halo 3
If this doesn't help always go into a game with party chat (which is what I do). Their just angry that they got their arse kicked so they look for anything to make fun of. ”

But lets be honest in that...... They are everywhere and in basically every game. I have found though that FPS games are worse than the others. Check the games you are playing. For one thing Halo has always been bad and most of the real gamers haven't liked that game for that reason for some time now. Most of these people can be ignored now.... hence the party system.”

On a serious note though, most girl gamers actually play way more intense then some of the guy gamers i know, they actually can focus more on strategy and outwitting then brute force. When i played professionally I would always try to recruit at least one girl gamer for my squad in Counterstrike, a lot of times it can prove to be quite advantageous.
What doesn't make sense to me are the guys that berate woman over xbox live, it's retarded. "get in the kitchen and make me asandwhich" As it might be funny if the girl is a firend of yours and doesn't get mad but it just proves that you suck at games and need to up your skills.

The Internet is largely populated by assholes with no communication skills, lots of insecurity, and a strong herd mentality.

They'll insult anyone and everyone who is even slightly different - women, homosexuals, foreigners, whatever. And they'll spout profanity almost nonstop.
Don't take it personally.
Most of these folks are still living at home... Maybe they've never had a meaningful relationship... Maybe they're still working at McDonalds for minimum wage... The point is that they're still sheltered little brats with absolutely no perspective and little to truly be proud of. Anything out of the ordinary is a frightening attack on their safe little corner of the world.”

That makes it harder to play with females at times because they don't like getting bitched at all the time.

I'm sorry but just because you sound delicious over ventrilo doesn't constitute as a real girl in my book especially when you asking for me to help you constantly and i do all the work.
With tat being said kicking a girl from a party just because she is a girl is retarded. At least play with them to find out if they can hack it. If not then give them the boot but that goes for even the dudes i have played with.
Whats even better tho imo isa female who loves the rush of a challenge, especially in a PvP setting. Give me a good looking female who screams commands over ventrilo or hell in my living room because we lan centered up my delicious front area. Magic Gentleman pure freakin magic.

FPS is not her strong game genre either which might explain a lot of things since kids mostly play L4D, Halo and whatnot and they have microphones in thir 360 package, glad that I've sold mine.
I, however, have 100% confidence that these guys get their @#$% kicked by my lovely mage (in wow, she's not a mage in real life, not the slightest... I think.) and then sent the remains to their parents in guise of warning.
Nonetheless, I've been in a guild which was ran by 2 girls. Everything went well until emotions came into play.. Then again, that could happen to anyone.

Falling back on the same comparison I always use, a girl who clamors for attention by declaring herself a 'girl gamer' because she plays a few popular games is the same thing as a guy following girls around trying to get attention by saying he's a chef because he knows how to microwave some instant ramen.
Truly awesome gamer girls don't obsess over being a gamer any more than the average male gamer does.

“I chalk it up to boys being boys (please enhance the word boys) it is rude and stupid for these things to be said, but then I realize that most of the boys playing are 12 year olds who if their mother heard them talk like this they would be slapped and grounded. ”

“i havent noticed anymore hate directed at women in games then i have at anyone else really... i mean the maturity level of xbox live isnt that great. no matter what win or lose the other team will trash talk even if your a guy. in my opinion lil kids have it far worse then women”

“I wish your comments applied only to girls I'm really tired of the racial slurs I hear on a regular basis. I have started reporting people on Xbox live even though their comment do not generally apply to me as I am a white male but there is no cause for such disrespect to anyone regardless of who they are This is one disappointment I have with Modern Warfare 2 that I can't just be in a party w\ my freinds and not have to listen to the idiots on general chat.”

“@Godfrey75 What are you talking about? I hear more slurs against white people than anyone else. Not that there's much racism in many of the games I play, but when I do hear it, it's stuff like "Go back to Utah, you Mormon expletive," or "You play like a hillbilly from the Ozarks," or "everyone knows white boys can't fight," or "he's some white kid who's daddy bought him a used account," or worst of all, "don't you dare tell a brother how to play, honkey!"”

“Well the unfortunate truth of all of this is some people are anti-social nubs and they will act how they feel like acting. I have played many games across many platforms. The sad truth is whether it be a PC MMO to to a console Shooter, it honestly matters not. If females are not dealing with the harshness of the insults on the consoles, then they are dealing with the annoyances of guys on PC games trying to pick them up every 5 seconds. All you can do is LoL and Mute them. To all the girl gamers, foreign gamers (non-american)[I only say foreign like this because I have never been trash talked by the Canadians, British, English, Polish, African, etc, etc, and so forth. It's normally only Americans, though not limited to.] and others who deal with these persecutions. Hang in there. Keep playing and have fun. Think of it this way, if you ignore, mute, etc. these individuals. Then they just end up being some random noobs just yelling through the headset into nothingness. Leaving them to look stupid.”

“I am a female FPS gamer and I come across A LOT of sexism. The one thing that gets them off MY back is the fact that I beat them so badly after they talk smack. Once I've kicked their asses they usually show more respect.”

“@SumerKnight Good for you! My girls do exactly the same thing (with the same results btw). My boys know better than to
a.) Insult anyone on the basis of gender, and
b.) Hit on pixels
I've played female characters in MMOs (E&B specifically) before and was shocked at the idiots trying to pick up on CARTOONS. My God, how pathetic are their lives? ”

If you were an FBI agent posing as a 15 year old, they'd get what they have coming as well. In RL, they're too timid to say anything or approach anyone, so they have to do it from behind their screens. Freaks.”

“It reminds me of years back, cruising around with some friends and one saw this 'hot' girl walking down the street. He INSISTED that I pull up beside her so he could talk to her, and as I did, we all saw that it was a guy (long beard and all) in shorts with butt-length blonde hair.
Things are not always as they appear.
He has YET to live it down, and claims to be psychologically scarred by the ordeal.”

“I sounds to me like some people are just upset between random assholes and little kids, they are now getting curb stomped by gaming's latest batch of winners (no sarcasm, girls rock)!
I feel bad for any females trying to get into the gaming world. My girlfriend for example lead a guild on WoW for several years, has played Halo and CoD, and enjoys just about any game out there. But, because she has the gift of a vagina, she has to put up with the harassment and belittlement of fellow, male, gamers.
Is it fair? Not at all. The times are changing and people need to accept that women are becoming a major participant in games. In fact, I bet the next time you're on CoD, Halo, etc. and you get your ass pwned by the person with no mic, it's really a chick you THINK is a guy. And to that, I feel it's sad that in order to gain respect and excel, women have to do everything possible to seem like "one of the guys" in video games and hide their identity. It's horseshit.

“Talking about idiots online, I am really not liking the "Game Chat" requirement in some MW2 playlists. It's funny because I knew what I would be getting into if I played those playlists and I have not been proven wrong. You don't get it all the time, but for the most part there is always at least one person in every game that screams incessantly or doesn't know how to withhold his rage. I understand why Infinity Ward made this decision, but I think it's essentially worthless.”
