Ah, Gears of War Wednesday. The one day of the week that we can all agree to hop onto Xbox LIVE for an hour (or four) starting at 20:00 and crack each other’s skulls in brutal, ruthless rounds of Gears of War 3!
We’re keeping it business casual this week. How does that work?
Well, it’s business as usual and you’ll no doubt be able to find more than enough South African Gears players to fill up a couple lobbies to play whichever multiplayer variant you prefer, from King of the Hill to Execution to Team Deathmatch and, if you really insist, Capture the Leader.
On the other hand, it’s casual this week because there seem to be tournament matches afoot so we’re going to throw caution to the wind and simply ‘appear’ and see who we can join up with.
You can refer to this handy-dandy list of players from last week (and this list from the week before, even) to try to find players to join up with and add to your friends lists!
If jGLZA isn’t involved in clan matches tonight you can join on him, and players like FoFoZA, Fullmetal MDK and Bro October may also be hanging about this evening, but those lists will keep you in good stead. I (El33tOliver) will be showing up a little later in the evening for a while, so add me if I’m not on your friends list and message me to get into a game if you’re not already.
Hope to see you online everybody!

I'll see if I can join, I don't have any of the new map packs but will see If I'm not busy with another game that is...Enjoy.
I have a mission with Dark Souls. Need to finish it before ME3 is released. Next two weeks is going to be me with a one track mind. But i will join you guys in the next few weeks fo sho sho
I actually feel like playing some CTL tonight, but also keen to try out the new Zeta playlist; no stopping power = shotgun lovers paradise.
Will see what i feel for tonight.
Awesome, I've seen a lot of Zeta talk on Twitter today - keen to see what's up, let's go with it ;)
Im in, some Zeta would be good
Zeta, like Mothership Zeta? :O As you can see, I haven't been playing Gears for a while now :/ Hopefully I can rectify that tonight!
Awesome, awesome and did I mention awesome evening! Amid the sweltering 30 degree swamp that is Durban tonight the Xbox kept running, thankfully! IT was GOW at it best tonight with lots of shotty action and nail biting sudden death finishers. Thanks y'all for a fantastic evening. Chill.
Awesome games last night guys.
Wait whaat?? I was online looking for you guys from 20:00 to 21:00 last night :/ is my Xbox Live broken or was it just a late night? ;)
Hrm, I think 'your Xbox LIVE was broken' - I joined late but there were definitely games going on before 21:00. I didn't see you when I was on either ;(
Those were some pretty close and intense games. KOTH never disappoints!
I only got into some KoTH right at the end of the night there, but the matches weren't any less intense! v3loCiti and jGLZA were invincible! Then Bull3tSaint arrived on the scene and used me as target practice...
jGL's Gears of War Wednesday Wrap will be up a little later today with a little addendum from me, too, look forward to it ;)
