i quite like the ghost protocol, am slowly phasing it out by getting onyx skins tho :p
im not a fan of the gold omen, put it on when i got my wings after one match i was back to ghost.
but, back to the point in hand, the oil slick looks kool, but theres only so much you can tell from a vid

I like the oil slick skins, but I don't think I'd notice if anyone was using them as they're quite dark.

I agree, and the Onyx at least has some prestige.

Only difference between Onyx and Oil, Oil has a black and small blue tint to it, the animation is on top and slides to the bottom of the gun, onyx is Black with a little bit of blue.

They're so similar that you could probably pass them of as the Onyx skins. LOL

Will try, but after getting 23,000 something kills for 2.0 on gears 2, i guess getting as many onyx medals as i can would help me lvl offline, no gold atm lol but dunno a quick way to get lvls offline
