Gears of War 2 Cheats

If you want to beat the game on Insane Difficulty but are having trouble, try the following. Start each chapter on Casual Difficulty after having unlocked Insane Difficulty. Then, before reaching the final checkpoint on any given chapter, switch the difficulty over from Casual to Insane. Then, finish the chapter. The game will record that you’ve completed that particular chapter on Insane Difficulty, even though you played a vast majority of the chapter on Casual Difficulty.

Ok well I'm not really sure how it happened but when your in the Hollow and your about to go up the towner with the patrol on the side. The one where Marcus is saying "Anyone need sniper practice". Well at one point Carmine might try to jump over the rockworm and instead of getting over it he's on top off it! And when the worm goes in to his cave instead of Carmine getting pushed off he will go inside the cave with him! But you havn't lost him forever, later when you reach the top and then the cheackpoint happens he will spawn infront of you

On day one, there are 2 sniper platforms where you have to walk up stairs to get to, each with cycling weapons. One has a mortar and hammer of dawn, and the other has a sniper / torque bow. If you set a Boomshield where the path curves round to the sniper spawns, the Boomers and Grinders get stuck. the only enemies which can get past are the Drones, which aren't very common in the higher levels. even if the shield fails, he Boomers cant climb over the barricade which leads to another area. this got me to level 38 in the horde without dying once.

remember. keep your head down.

if you see a boom sheild whack it and quickly pick it up and change your gun at the same time to use that gun whith the boomsheild.

Go on day one and go to the stairs (note this for dirty dirty hoard badge) with boom sheild this is the trickey part get boom sheild and put it 2 the middle and no one can pass but team mates and rarely little grubs (sorry forgot what there called)

There is a small tunnel in the central area of Pavilion which leads to a Boomshield and there is an ammo supply near the entrance. You can simply plant the shield in the middle of the tunnel and that is enough to prevent most, if not all enemies from entering. This is very useful from preventing heavy attackers such as bloodmounts, butchers and maulers. It is possible to hold all 50 waves from this position.

In Horde, starting a new wave clears all the weapons dropped by enemies so if you want to carry over heavy weapons such as mulchers boomshields or mortars, pick them up and carry them until the new wave of enemies appear. This way, you can still get a new copy of the weapon if it is one of the default weapons of the map or have the advantage of having extra firepower at the start of the wave.
