Gears of War 3 - Homecoming

First, look at Carmine. Do you see what his second weapon is? It's a Torque bow and that is some serious homage right there.

Head towards the deserted outpost, hang a left around the car and then take a right to end up on the road. At the end of the road you'll take a right. in the alley, watch for a door on the left that you can kick in to lead to a courtyard. Inside the courtyard, on the right is a collectable. Head back to the main path and keep going until you run into the stranded.

Afterwards just follow the path until you get to a playground. When you get across the playground, you'll get attacked by stalks. Try and destroy the pods that are releasing the drudges to kill the stalk quicker (this is like tossing a grenade in an e-hole). Kill the lambent and another stalk will appear. Kill that one and you'll be able to exit onto the next street. Before you do that though, if you go up the slide next to the first stalk and take a right, you'll find a collectable in the corner. To get down, go back over to the slide and hit the X button. I love Cole! Continue into the alley. Here you'll bump into more drudges and some lambent wretches. Take a couple of rights and then squeeze through the razor wire.

You'll come to the front door of the Grocery Store. A couple of stalks will emerge. It'll bring mostly just lambent grubs and drudges. Stay back but watch for the mutations because they'll end up with a pretty good amount of elevation from which to shoot. Also make sure you kill those pods. After all is clear, go to your right a little bit and you'll find a small path across the hole to the grocery store.

Inside the grocery store, you'll need to fight your way through the aisles. after your first encounter (after the "happy now?"), On the right side of this room is a checkout area. Head over to it and at the last register, closest to the doorway, you'll find a collectable. Just go up the left or right side by the walls rather than strait up the middle and it should be pretty easy. Round the next corner and you'll find more lambent. Use the small room to the right to flank and finish them off quickly.

In the next area, it's rather open. You can hang back and kill them off at range. If you try to come up on them, you may end up running in circles. Also watch out for drudges who's heads stretch out because when they die, their head may come alive and chase after you.

After, you'll come to a smallish safe room with a bunch of boxes. Chainsaw through the boxes and one will reveal a switch that will open the room to the loader. Use the loader to get beyond the locker and then pick up the food. before heading outside, check the room off to the right. You should see a giant crimson Omen painted on the wall of the room. On the computer desks in the back are COG tags, grab those then head back out into the room with the groceries. head to the far left door and break it down using the loader.

Once outside, you may want to get out of the loader and kill everything, then proceed to the green smoke to drop of the supplies. This is just assorted lambent again except you'll need to use the loader to make a bridge of cars to get across.
