Gears Of War 2 Collectibles Guide Act 1

Written guide:
War Journal #1 The Eagle Newspaper

The first journal in the game is also the easiest to spot. In the area where you teach Carmine how to take cover, search the ground for a red-and-white newspaper. Its after the overturned desk, but before the chain link fence.

War Journal #2 Ambulance Drivers Log

Near the very end of the mission, after youve swung down the ladder from the parking garage, the objectives will order you to head left towards the hospital. Instead, go right to find a large garage. The journal is next to the desk.

War Journal #3 Doctors Journal Dr. Nicolette Shannon

Destroy the Locust squad with the exploding tanks and then run through the four hallways that surround the lower courtyard until you find an open door with a writhing patient inside. The journal is on the floor. Need more precise directions? Return to the larger hospital room with the two patients on stretchers. From there, run down the left hall, turn right at the end and – in the next hall – look for the third door on the left.

War Journal #4 Jacinto Medical Center File

After splitting up with Dom and Tai, youll rejoin them in a large hospital administration room. In the center is a massive reception desk. On the floor, between the desks two halves, is the red-and-yellow journal.

War Journal #5 COG Letterhead

Following the Reaver encounter in the outside courtyard, as well as the dark and bloody emergency room, Anya will inform you that the Locust are outside the hospital, taking position in the streets. Run down the left hallway and turn right at the corner. Behind the first (half) open door on the left is the journal.

War Journal #6 COG Proclamation

The next journal is located in the big, two-tiered atrium with stone columns (where the power loss causes warning lights to flash). As soon as you enter, turn right and follow the upper balcony to a blue ammo crate and the bright red COG Proclamation.

War Journal #7 COG Tag

Reunite with Carmine and exit the hospital into all-out warfare. Turn right at the sandbag and walk through the archway. Immediately spin around to find the journal (in this case, a silver COG necklace) tucked away in the corner.

War Journal #8 Grindlift Notice

You can grab this journal as soon as the mission begins. The red-yellow-and-black grindlift notice is pasted on the metal wall behind you, left of the ladder. Dont worry if youre forced to exit the derrick for the first ground fight… the journal is still there when you return.

War Journal #9 Munitions Requisition Form

Another ground fight begins after the roller coaster ride downhill. Seal up the Locust emergence holes and then run back towards the derrick. The journal is on the dirt between the derrick and an overturned jeep. Dont wait too long to nab it, however; when all the enemies are dead, returning to that area can sometimes trigger the cutscene in which Marcus jumps back on the derrick and continues the mission.

War Journal #10 Jacinto Sentinel Newspaper

In the first building you enter, after kicking down the door with three kicks, jump over the bar. Youll see a set of stairs that lead to an upstairs room and the journal. The newspaper is on the floor next to the chair.

War Journal #11 Memorial Inscription

Fight your way through Tickers until you reach the church. Left is a Nemacyst attack and a world of hurt; right is a fenced off cemetery. Inside the cemetery is a shiny inscription plaque on a large memorial marker. Thats the journal.

War Journal #12 Truck Drivers Note

After Coles derrick saves you from the turret operator, JACK will cut open a fence on the right. Before going through, explore the gas station to the left. The journal is hidden in a back room.

War Journal #13 COG Tag

Work your way through the dark tunnel full of Tickers until you reach a dead end. The rest of the squad will run up a short set of stairs and through a door. Walk through the shadowy door to the left of those stairs instead and youll discover the COG tags on the ground.
