Gears of War clusterluck achievement tip

solution...clusterluck achievement
Go to campaign, load Act 1 Chapter 1. Play through chapter 1 until you get to the part with Dominic where the locust are about to break open the door. Dominic says "Take cover" and it says checkpoint reached. At this point you should have the 2-4 grenades you picked up around the start of the chapter.
Take cover and when the door opens 3 locust will run through and take cover. Lob a grenade over towards where the door opens. If timed correctly, all 3 locust will be killed with that 1 grenade. 1/10 done with the clusterluck achievement. Now for the trick.
Press pause and select "Load last checkpoint." It will restart you right before the 3 locust come running through the door. Repeat what you did earlier by lobbing another grenade in the middle of them and killing them all again...pause again, and load last checkpoint. Throw another grenade and kill them all again. repeat until you have done this a total of 10 times.
Congrats, you now have the Clusterluck achievement. (20 points.)

Gears of War down to third spot

Halo 3 remains at #1, as it will until the planet's very last Xbox 360 red lights itself to death 60 years from now, but beating the beloved Gears of War down to third spot is some achievement for Activision's ace war shooter.

Gears of War Windows Live

A slight problem with Microsoft's Games For Windows Live initiative is manifesting itself in the PC version of Epic Games' Gears of War, which infests stores today.
According to Microsoft, players are automatically prompted to download a Games For Windows Live update when they begin the game. However, the update refuses to install correctly, which can cause some problems.
The solution is an extremely easy one. After downloading the update and arriving at the main menu screen, simply quit of the game and restart it, which should cause the update to install. Alternatively, players may download and apply the update

Gears of War PC

"For gamers who are already well experienced at Gears on the Xbox 360 it might be difficult to justify purchasing an entirely new game for the purpose of playing a few extra hours of single player content and a few extra multiplayer maps . However, 3-4 hours of gameplay is quite significant especially when you consider that some recent retail games featured 5-6 hours of play in their entirely."

Corpser Gears of War Tip

When you are pitted against the Corpser in the Act 3 mines, there's a quick way to win. The Lancer's (chainsaw rifle) constant stream of fire makes it the weapon of choice here. Shoot at the belly of the Corpser, working any angle you can between its legs.
If you hit the belly a few times, it will lift it's front legs and expose it's face. Immediately fire up at it's face and chin. It will shriek and move back.
Hurry, move up grab ammo and repeat. If you don't move fast enough wretches will arrive in waves and make things ten times harder. You must hit the Corpser's face three times.
You'll back it up onto a platform with two destructable joints. They're lit up and on the ground. Shoot them both and the Corpser will plunge into the Imulsion liquid. If you're quick enough you can kill the corpser before any wretches arrive
