Xbox Gaming in South Africa

Get your Lancers greased up and ready - starting today at 6:30PM (GMT 2+) and going until 2AM on Monday 26 July, Gears of War 2 is pushing 20x XP in all modes, as well as a special Horde loadout featuring all Boomers (Waves 1-9) and all Bloodmounts (Wave 10).

To put that into perspective, some clever guy over at the Epic forums has compiled this useful XP reference chart:

Horde:
Casual:... 2000 XP per wave
Normal:... 3000 XP per wave
Hardcore: 4000 XP per wave
Insane:... 5000 XP per wave

Other gametypes:
1,000 points in Warzone:........ 20,000 XP
1,000 points in King of The Hill: 5,000 XP
1,000 points in Submission:..... 7,600 XP
1,000 points in Guardian:........ 14,000 XP
1,000 points in Execution........ 19,600 XP
1,000 points in Wingman:........ 23,800 XP
1,000 points in Annex:............ 4,600 XP

And per kill:
Warzone:........ 3,500 XP
King of the Hill: 870 XP
Submission:..... 1,330 XP
Guardian:........ 2,440 XP
Execution:...... 3,430 XP
Wingman:....... 4,130 XP
Annex:........... 800 XP

Note: There is also the 5.000 EXP win bonus in Ranked, and a 2.500 win bonus in Social.

Excuse me, I'm just off to practise Wingman in the meantime.
