Gears of War 2 Double XP weekend for July 4th

July 1st, 2009 Posted in Events, Microsoft, Online, Xbox 360

Epic has recently announced that they will be holding a Gears of War 2 Double XP weekend to celebrate July 4th. The actual event will take place on July 3rd and run through July 6th.

Not only will players recieve double XP for any ranked game they play this weekend but the winning team will be giving an extra 500 XP.

This is sure to appeal to some but I’m not too sure if it’s how I would like to spend my July 4th. I mean common, fireworks, beer, barbeque, what more could you ask for?

    Gears is good, but I’ve got to say the 4th of July beats it. I’m sure there were still tons of people playing it though.
