Good news for Halo fans who didn’t feel like getting the Limited Edition of Halo Wars.

Finally after four months and two other patches it looks like Epic Games might actually fix Gears of War 2. Don’t get me wrong, Gears of War 2 is one of my favorite games of all time; however, since its release back in November 2008 its been close to unplayable due to all of the problems. While Epic has been working hard and has already released two other patches trying to fix things, the main problems still exist such as an overpowered chainsaw, slow matchmaking process, pointless ranking system, lag and worst of all the ability for players to standby. On March 24 Epic will release the Title Update 3 patch that will hopefully fix all of these problems. Epic has also announced that on March 31 the Snowblind map pack with three new maps and one of my personal favorites (Fuel Depot) from the original Gears of War will be released as DLC.
