ur critizism isnt acurate at all; u can kill any1 with half clip if ur aim is good enough, some bullets on the face will drop the enemy down, i think the campaign is good, except 4 the last boss, i agree with multiplayer, the matchmaking is awful, but the game is pretty good; personally i liked it a lot
oh, and i dont think these graphics could be described as "bad", seriously
Okay so I got gears a little bit early for Chistmas and I absolutely hate it. It makes me feel sick playing it. It took 4 full clips of lancer to kill someone, respwn times are forever, graphics are bad and its just horrible. I cant stand it, I bought it at best buy and dont want it anymore. It turned out like assasins creedwhich i got bored with at the tutorial. Wish i would have gotten WAW.somegtalover
by any standards the graphics are pretty good, umm what difficulty were you playing on that a guy took 4 lancer clips, there are no respawn times unless your playing guardian or meat flag ect.. if you've played CS its the same kind of one life till round is over stuff..... i think your just making up excuses cuz you dont like it. to each his own but dont put down a game with false info
i gotta say that i really loved the first Gears... But seriously for some unknown reason Gears 2 just puts me to sleep faster then nyquil and sudafed (sp?)
yes, even the Single player, Yes even Horde mode, yes even Local Co-op and Local Co-op Horde mode... just a rediculously BORING game. The main reason i really liked the first gears WAS the fact that it was so challenging... it kept you on the edge of your seat rather then the edge of falling asleep.
Epic's half assed attempt to try and make the characters and story more involved and "deep" just made it seem lightyears more forced and corny then the first game (btw Dom is by far the most annoying character in any game i have ever played, i could not care less about him as a character and hope he just gets axed entirely)
but at least Cole is still Cole and he's awesome. Don't care much for Marcus Fenix either... The typical "I'm an arrogant macho badass who doesnt take crap from no one" american hero is just getting REAL stale... but if it were a japanese game Marcus Fenix would most certainly look like a women and that's even worse.
I really didn't like the Original Gears for these reasons.
1: Over hyped graphics! If every thing is a shade of washed out grey and no real sunlight how didpeopleget away with praising the graphics to this game?
2! Every player looks huge and feels like a 300 lbs man running with a gun almost as big as he is. Everyone moved slow. Oh wait.
3: 200 bullets doesn't kill anything in the game.
4: Feels like a slow awkward version of Unreal by the creators of Unreal.
My friends loved this game and would force me to play it. They played this game a lot and I could still hang with them. The sequel looks better but I guess from what the TS said I'm still going to hate this one as well.

I seriously hope your a girl because men really should not use terms like arrogant and macho in the way that you did those terms are reserved for spiteful feminists and jealous boys.
HI HATER YEA SURE THE GAME HAS IT FLAWS BUT ITS IN MY COLLECTION SO OH WELL ITS AMERICA PEOPLE HAVE THIER RIGHT 2 BASH GAMES BYE HATER!!!!soildsnke22
What in the world does that mean?
You just have bad taste in games.Asad197Taste is subjective, not objective. You may not like his opinion, but it doesn't mean he has a bad taste in games.
I'm going to have to agree with you there, especially about the graphics. What's the point of having beautiful graphics with no art or color to express the beauty? This is why I prefer Halo 3 and Fable 2 graphics over technical games like GOW2. Although they're not technically mind blowing, they're beautiful looking games bursting with color and Beautiful, varied environments.I really didn't like the Original Gears for these reasons.

Whatthedeuce, I agree for the most part (except sudafed doesn't make you drowsy :P).
Kikode, what makes you think men can't use arrogant and macho? Guys can be against that stuff too - especially since its been rehashed again and again.

Yeah Gears of War 2 looks good thoughgraphically, sun light and color finally. I'm really looking forward to Fable 2.

lol thanks for clearing that up :D and also thanks for agreeing with me.just let Kikode think what he wants i guess... no point starting an arguement with him because im tired of male characters like Marcus Fenix (yea i'm a guy, yes arrogance really pisses me off. so what?) oh and by the way i'm also strongly against the way women are portrayed in video games as most female characters in games come off as nothing but bodacious bags of meat dressed up like prostitutes. (there are exceptions mind you)
The multiplayer is pretty bad. The campaign was great but it is not a good format for multiplayer deathmatches.z3dd1cu5
I think this is the most accurate thing I've read in this whole thread. Nicely put, sir.
Bad graphics? 4 clips to kill someone? Are you sure your playing Gears of War 2?DarkDemon91
Awwww man! You have the same jacket and facial hair as me...
I'm no longer a unique individual! Ahhhh!
*cuts off his own face and flushes it down the toilet*
I liked the single player of both gears of war games. The multiplayer on the first gears has a really bad community. Maybe I was just very unlucky, but every game I played was full of the worst type of gamer.
It also didn't play how you'd expect - I thought it would be team based and tactical....where as it was more people just running round with the shotgun.
The second gears seems a bit better online, but still not great.
