Story- the campaign is actually pretty good. it looks amazing and it actually has a story unlike the first one. It seems most games these days love to use the emotional angle. but in this game it is pretty decent. The games campaign has a lot of variety and i dont want to ruin anything but it sort of has platforming.

Horde- Horde is pretty awsome. Its a 5 player co-op mode that is really fun. even on casual it can get tough. Playing with friends is so fun as you stratigize each move. It can be a tedious if you do the same pattern. Still its fun and a great edition.

Competetive Multiplayer- They have vastley improved the multiplayer. Its great that they have fixed most of the glitches and exploits that were found in the first gears. They raised the player limit to 10 and they added wingman which is a multi team 2v2v2v2v2. Their is also a party system so this time around you can join matches with your friends. Im so glad they added that in. Other nice additions are chainsaw battles which is nice to balance out the battles and meatshields(Using downed enemies as shields). All of these are well balanced. The multiplayer this time around is nearly flawless.
