Summary: pleasant surprise
Comment: I bought this game as a surprise for my boyfriend. First of all: I personally dislike those kinds of games ( bloody, shooting/ war games) a lot - so I just got it because he was very excited about it.
However, when he started playing I was drawn in by the very deep and involving story line as well as the amazing graphics. This combination made it feel like watching a movie and I just wanted to see what was going to happen next. Also the tasks were fairly diverse so it wasn't just: go in - kill everything - next stage.
So even though I was not very found of the game at first, I have to give it a lot credit for story line, graphics and innovative control.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Highly addictive for a reason!
Comment: Gears of War 2 is the true successor of the first, because it adds new elements and better gameplay along with the frantic Hoarde mode. It's almost always intense when it comes to single player/co-op, and its always so awesome to sit back and whoop your friends in a live multiplayer match. With a game presented so maturely and everything a shooter should have, this is one of my favorite games and I'm 100% sure it will stay that way.

Summary: Gears of War 2 makes me happy in my pants
Comment: ok so i'll start this off saying that i am indeed a die hard gears of war fan and i'm not gonna be like OMG this game is the greatest thing in existence...no porn is haha but the game is really good they pretty much fixed everything that i didn't like about the 1st one but there are a few things that bother me about the game one of which is how one of the levels plays out but i'm not going to spoil anything i'll just say it's not gears of war and the achievements aren't that hard to get i've gotten 45/50 so far that kinda made me sad because i wanted something to try for you can pretty much get a lot of them by just doing the single player campaign so now i must talk about the online play they changed a lot of things about it they've made the shot gun more weaker and the lancer stronger and they've added stopping power to the weapons too they've also included a party system which is a good concept but if you have a horrible connection don't expect to host a game you'd just have to hope a friend is playing that game and that's about the only things that i don't like about the game but everything else makes me happy and i think that this game is a must buy but if you don't think that just rent it or something you really need to play this especially if you loved the 1st one
