Double XP weekend in Gears of War 2

Starts now. Ends Monday.

Epic's giving the Gears of War 2 multiplayer scene a fillip with a double XP event this weekend.

From 9am GMT today [that's 10am British Summer Time, 11am in the rest of Europe - Official Eurogamer Time Monitor] until 1pm GMT on Monday, you'll get double the experience points for every kill and capture, so you'll rank up that bit faster.

Something to keep you going until the weighty Dark Corners DLC arrives, anyway. More Gears 2 stuff on the Gears 2 gamepage.
