Gears of War 2 just went live in the UK – thus begins a 24-hour session of watching GoW2’s first users uploading screenshots from their Xbox over Xbox LIVE and to the web.

Just another day at the office, more or less, but I still feel somewhat giddy when a new title ships for Xbox. Especially when it goes with tech that you’ve worked on. (Yes, there’s a number of people from my group in the credits for this one, myself included!)

Even more giddyness knowing that there’s another two titles launching in the next ten days along with a [NXE] system update over the next week and a half – more on those as they launch, though.
