Gears of War 2 is like playing with turkey innards

"...that has to be one of the grossest video game moments ever made, but in kind of a fun way. It reminds me of when you're a kid and your mom goes and buys the Thanksgiving turkey and you're sitting in the kitchen playing with the innards, ya know?"

And the Fark thread on GoW2:

I'm coughing up blood that not my own.
That's not right man...

I have GoW2, as do two of my brothers. 
It's like GoW on crack.  It almost made... MADE!... me run to the store and buy a new HD TV just so I could see it in its full glory.
Very gory (though I think that can be turned off).  Awesome graphics.  Gore literally covers the screen when it splashes on the "camera" lens.

Good times.

I picked up GoW used for like $12, haven't played much of it though. Looking forward to it though.

I'm having too much fun wandering around Liberty City in GTAIV. The cops don't like it when you take cars out on the tarmac of the airport.

I bought GTA III for the PC to learn how they built a city. I wasn't interested in the game at first, but the more I played the more I loved it.
I never got into GTAIV.  I think watching a video of the in-game clip, Republican Space Rangers, did irreparable harm:

Yeah, the whole mocking of terrorist attacks and conservatism as a whole is pretty offensive. I doubt I'll play it for the missions and stuff, but running around, beating people up, carjacking, and seeing how far you can go before the cops kill you dead.

LOL.  I imagine you would get better skills as you progress?
GTAIII was fun.  I played it completely through.  GTAIV looked like it has potential.
