Gears 2 was a lot better then i had expected. The overall game play was great the controls where easy to get used to. from Amazon.com Pros: -horde mode-very solid and enjoyable campaignNOTHING else Cons: -poor graphics compared to 1st-slow moving and just slow feel overall gameplay-too many weapons just hectic-poor very poor online play-patched way too many times-way too many cheaters and glitches-slow laggy horrible servers-horrible online community-game mechanics are basically a Halo 3 complete rip off which is what made gears 1 so great it wasn't halo i love halo but i want to play gears not halo with a new look-wish i could give it a zero this game is the greatest disappointment of all time for me in the gaming world-this game along with the xbox 360 fail rate has pushed me back to being a hardcore PC gamer Other Thoughts: AMD Phenom X4 9950 @ 3.2GhzZalman CNPS 9700 LEDArctic Silver 5Gigabyte MA-GA790GP DS4H4GB OCZ DDR2 1066XFX 4870 1GB core @ 800Mhz mem @ 1100Mhz750W Thermaltake Tough power640GB Western Digital Caviar BlueAntec three HundredChemei CMV 221D from Newegg.com Okay I know Im a little late about writing this review but just wanted to let anyone who hasn't gotten this game and is still on the fence about it know that this game it better than any shooter you will play on the xbox 360 to date. The story mode is way better than it was in the first introduction and is much longer, the problem with the first gears for me was that I beat it in one day, this game even when playing for loong hours took me a couple of days to get through. And after you are done with the story mode the Multiplayer is AWESOME! from Amazon.com O. W. Most of the weapons were sweet, but they destroyed the ability to shotgun battle like you could in the first Gears of War. That, for me, was a deal breaker. from Amazon.com Gears of War 2 - Circa 2008 from Amazon.com Gears of War 2 Limited Edition This game is worth every cent! from Amazon.com Pros: This game continues the story of the first Gears of War. There is now much more action and variety of maps, enemies and bosses throughout the whole game. from Newegg.com First Ill start off by saying that Gears 2 Singleplayer campaign and horde mode are great fun with friends however the multiplayer is a serious joke. Im a veteran of Gears 1 multiplayer with over 10k kills and a lot of matches played. from Amazon.com I've played plenty of shooter games. But nothing comes close to this. from Amazon.com Pros: The new features like Bots, Horde, and Collectables are bring different people to the Gears of War series the massive multiplayer game play is one of the best new features I would totallty advise you to get this game. Cons: If you think gears of war 2 is like the first one you mistaken... from Newegg.com
