So whats the deal i think I understand that there is a 5 player co-op mode called horde, but what about the story? Is it still only 2 player?

Would have been nice to create at least three or four. So basically this is still a single (or dual) player mode. Lacking a multiplayer mode similar to Halo or COD4.

Well, COD4 doesn't have a co-op mode at all so that's not really a comparison. Epic decided not to do a 4 player Gears 2 co-op mode and, instead, have put in a 5 player Horde mode. Would it have been nice to have a 4 player campaign? Yes, of course it would but I think, from what I have read about the Horde mode, it is a suitable replacement.

This is Gears of Wars 2. The second installment in the series and the best they could do is a 5 player multi-horde mode. I find that rather disappointing. I guess their focus was more on the story mode and making it more intense than the first one. Which is fine in itself but in my books that a difference between a 9 and a 10.
