A great sequel to a great game, more variety in Gears 2 is a thumbs up; and still sticks to the same tradition READ MORE
Sticking to the tradition and giving more variety to the spice of death in this game is worth a 9.0 a little bit far from flawless, and deserves a X Box Achievement and possible my "3 Gold Rings".
Newly introduced characters arn't too corney, and fit in perfectly; voice acting, responses, part of the whole story was carefully and correctly well done. The story also introduces A LOT of new questions that will make you wait for Gears of war 3, so most likely if you finished Gears2, you want Gears3 already coming out.
Gears is full of genius idea's, and as bad as you thought the locust was in Gears1, it makes it genius of how bad they are in Gears2 because when it comes to idea's with what the Gears universe has, it's hard to come up with things like that.
The new guns are also another thumbs up; the scortcher is a genius idea, and it's fair, the Mulcher and Mauler can be unfair at times, especially in multiplayer, but other then that, it's fine.
When it comes to flaw's; it's mainly multiplayer.
The only thing you can complain about is single player is if you get glitchy other then that, multiplayer bugs are the flaw; but that's little to say.
Multiplayer CAN be frustrating, and the bugs and glitches are still around, same with the host thing which REALLY needs to be fixed. Sometimes you can be blowen away in one shot with the Ghashnr shotgun, which is really frustrating because one sunday thats how i was dieing all day.
But other than that, it's worth your money; don't bother getting limited edition though, you get free codes for the golden lancer now.
