A few GoW2 manual pages leak their way online

Other than the disc itself, a video game's manual is the most important and interesting piece of content that comes packaged with a game. That is, if they're colored, because black and white manuals are a total waste of time. What isn't a total waste of time is checking out a few pages of Gears of Wars 2's manual which have mysteriously leaked their way online and can be viewed in our handy gallery below.
Though, note that all of the manual pages are not included (unless Epic devised a new manual numbering system), but there's plenty of interesting manual information to look through. Sadly, we just found out that the Annex gametype is back ... stupid Annex.

SWEET! you know what , gears story reminds me of war of the worlds. where the creatures came from down under and try to wipes us out.
Are they gonna tell us the story of the locust?

I don't know if it's been answered already, but are all game types warzone style except for execution?

From what I understand they are, and thank god they are so. Execution was for the grunts who didn't know how to work as a team. Warzone required a great deal more teamwork and less running around like rambo. Certainly set the game apart from your standard online shooter.

Annex was the best gametype on GOW. Glad to see it is sticking around.

Annex was only hilariously fun when you set the downs to 60 seconds.

it was the best type of match to just go and screw around in, i'm pretty sure it improved my sniper skills alot too.....it's a good game type, not for competetiveness but for fun and rape-age....good place to hone your skills....glad its still around.....

Really? I really like annex, it's probably my favorite game type.

Am I the only one who noticed the bot mode? I'm not a big fan of bots, but I understand a lot of people are. Isn't that the biggest bit of information we're getting from these pages outside of the fact that there are now heavy weapons that affect movement?

I love Annex. At least there's a goal, or point to it.
