Cole?... as in The Cole Train?



http://news.filefront.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/gears-of-war.jpg


So i bought Gears of War 2 yesterday and was expecting the same experience as its predecessor and in a sense
i was right up till the end of chapter one .......then it all changed. For one the scale is much larger than the original
were the mentality that the original had was "o here's one bad ass enemy,enjoy" but the know its more like "oh, you remember that one bad ass enemy ,well lets time that by three."
There is was also a major overhaul in the graphics department which truly shows every second of the game. There are still a few texture pop in's especially in multiplayer but its still one hell of a great looking game.


Bullet Points

Pro's(+)
-Great graphics.
-Bigger,badder and more bad ass has been accomplished.
-New weapons and grenades are a welcome addition to the already perfect arsenal.
-Horde mode is a must play.
-Multiplayer is better than ever,wing man and submission are going to be keeping me busy for months.
-New enemies and characters are a great addition to the stellar cast of characters.

Con's(-)
-The story still is not a justified reason to play the campaign (campaign is still good).
-Occasional pop ins should not be there.
-Lag during multiplayer.
-Poor match making (takes up to 5 minutes to get connected when not in a party.


Now from 2 o'clock till 4 oclock i had the most fun i've ever had on xbox live with members from the Giantbomb and Citizengame.co.uk community members. Special thanks to Dannyodwyer for setting up the tournament. Shout outs to GearHead,Tru3_Blu3,Dboy and a drunken Denis Walsh, I had a great time chatting with you guys(while chainsawing you to death). Hopefully we'll have more game nights in the future and more memorable games in the coming weeks. Later-Jason Krieger
