There is an achievement is Gears of War 2 labeled "Does This Look Infected To You?" and I was totally shocked when I saw it. I was like, wow, Does This Look Infected? see for yourself: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game ... ievements/

In another achievement you have to find 41 items so that's another possible reference which would be preety sick if it was on purpose.

That's pretty cool. I hope they're a fan and not someone who just took the phrase because they thought it was clever or something.

now I'd say its a nod because there are achievements called Freebaird (Lynard Skynard), Tanks For The Memories (Fall Out Boy) and Back To Basics (Christina Auguleara)

It would've been funnier if the LS one was called Freebeard.
