    I still play it. It actually has got alot better. Epic has improved matchmaking by making it quicker to get a game and it finally has a proper ranking system.
    There is also new maps and they also redone the lobbies.

    I recommend picking it up again

    I believe its still pretty high for what is played on the weekly basis...so I'm sure there are plenty playing it. I popped it in the otherday a bit to play with some friends, but not really besides that I haven't played it really recently.

    There are still lots of people playing it.  If you liked the multiplayer then I think you should go ahead and buy it.

    I had a good bit of fun with the singleplayer, but the multiplayer sucked something awful. If you can get it for less than $60 (or whatever a "new" game goes for in your country,) then you should probably check it out. I don't think it's worth full price.

    Nope. Was pretty disappointed by the MP, and for some reason the SP didn't compel me enough for a second play through.

    I would save your money and just give it a rental :\

    I still find Horde really enjoyable, but I haven't played the game recently. Probably not worth full retail price, but worth having, if that makes sense.

    The last patch really helped it a lot. When people quit the game will drop a bot in there place. The bot is on the highest difficulty, whatever it is called. The bots are actually better then your average newbie who doesn't know how to play really. So the problem with people quitting has been solved for the most part.

    I still get connected to laggy games sometimes which stinks and is my biggest complaint at the moment..

    what the hell is this game?  Did someone just accidentally make another misspelled God Of War page?  I can't see how anyone could be playing whatever this thing is.

    It's one of the most played XBL games dude, finding players should be no problem.


    They've also fixed a tonne of things that were wrong with the MP at release, not all of them though.
    With that said, it's still a tonne of fun imo.

    I was a huge gears of war  fan until i played Gears of War 2. Cliffy B. killed my love for that series with all of the utter shit that occurred during the first month that the game was out. I might rent the game just to see if they have fixed any of the bugs.

    I like the game but I'm horrible at Multiplayer, and the bots are too easy to play against.  I wish in Horde bots replaced quitters, because it seems noone stays for that long, which kills the mode.  In short, it's still fun, but a little too frustrating for me to play it that much.

    I play it every now and again with friends... Never taken it online with people I don't know though.

    It says in the top 3 of my game rotation all the time.

    I believe horde should be played with friends, playing public horde isn't a very good idea especially if you want to reach level 50.

    I'm certainly not. I got fed up in the first two months when everybody was running around grenade-tagging, shotgunning up close and chainsawing. I had to put up with that shit in Gears Of War. No thanks.

    I play publicly now and then, ever since Double EXP ended.  Leveling up takes too long without it, and I want the "Blood on the Sand" achievement for it's '50 cent reference.  If the achievement description changes to "where mah Skull, bitch?!", I'll say Epic deserves a gold star.

    Even, though it has lag it satistifying to blow people into bits thats maybe the only reason so many people play and the extra DLC.
