    Gears Of War 2 worth the 60 Bucks.

    Honestly I love gears of war. The first one was so appealing and this one was just bigger and better. Although the story-line didn't seem as good this time around it was still enjoyable. I love this game and everything about it and have put many hours into this game. Although I love everything about it it didnt get a full 5 stars because of  a few minor issues that I get from living overseas. Since living in Japan I have so much lag that I can hardly play. Although I usually lag in all games gears seems to lag a lot more then others. I can hardly be able to contribute to the game. Another thing is the matchmaking this time around. Its a lot slower and I have waited for 20 minutes to get into a game. Although it is faster now its still slow compared to anything else. Gears of war 2 is an awesome game and has a really good online. If you want a fun shooter with a lot of blood this game is for you. The achievements are all doable except for "Seriously 2.0". I have almost every achievement except 4. Its a good game and fun as well. Well done achievements that give you a challenge but aren't going to rip your hair out for. Fun game and in my opinion a must by for any 360 owner!

They set out to make a direct sequel that would best its predecessor- and in short, they succeeded. Gears of War 2 is bigger and better than ever before. It takes every piece one step further, and the result is a "larger than life" action game that's a blast from start to finish.The campaign in Gears of War 2 immediately gives off more of a ...

      Memorable story & deep multiplayer makes GOW2 a solid package. 0

      Microsoft’s hype machine was set to eleven in November 2006 when the first iteration of the Gears of War series hit shelves worldwide. Epic rode the wave and created one of the best games of this generation while simultaneously knocking Halo off the Xbox Live most played list for the first time in two years. A sequel was inevitable, but with a twenty-four month turnover and the aforementioned hype machine running at a steady five or six, you’d be forgiven to think Epic were going to rest on thei...
