No. That is absolutely correct. Gears of War 2. Epic is “celebrating Emergence Day” with 20x XP in Gears of War 2. It is already live and will run until 9:00 am Eastern Time on Monday, 14 November. This, while Gears of War 3 runs its double XP until the same day. [Source]
It’s always tough saying goodbye to something that’s been part of your life for years. Something that’s given you immeasurable joy. It’s a lot easier to do so when it has a new, better replacement. It’s even better when you can celebrate the moment with strangers and friends alike.

There’s not much time left to earn your wings in Gears of War 2 before Gears of War 3 releases (I gave up a while back and will accept languishing in the 70’s), but this weekend will host a 15x XP boost to all multiplayer modes. After that there’s only two weekends left – one will be at 20x and…

Details below.
Epic’s continued efforts to ensure we all have our Gears of War 2 wings by the time Gears of War 3 releases sees a 20x XP Event start today. As per Rod Fergusson’s tweet (nine hours ago): SDCC Gears 2 XP Event – 20x XP, Horde enemies with mixed up guns, starts tomorrow 9 AM EST till Monday

Another game joins the American Independence Day celebrations with an XP boost. This time the cowboys get a chance. Running this coming weekend, the XP boost will kick off by 12:01AM (US Eastern) on Friday July 1st and will run until 11:59 PM (US Eastern) on Monday July 4th, all online multiplayer modes including Free Roam and Undead Overrun in…
