I didn't write this, got it from http://vagos.es/showthread.php?p=744755 so credits go to skinjed76. Although I modified it with some grammar corrections and spacing. And changed some option settings so that you will get English audio instead of Spanish :S
Credit also goes to svtstang for his awesome GOW2 Tutorial.
