Gears of war two has been put down by many but i hope that you'll take this review into consideration. Gears 2 lives up to the excpectations in lot's of way's and only falls short in a few way's. GAMEPLAY: The gameplay is gears of war 1 times 15 the gameplay doesn't really fall short at anything (in the campaign). If you were a fan of gears 1's fast paced cover to cover shooting than you'll love what they have done with gears 2. The formula in gears two remains basicly the same as in gears 1 but theres alot more to look at in GOW2. GRAPHICS: The graphics in gears 2 has improved since gears one, but it's xbox 360 what do you excpect? MULTIPLAYER: The multiplayer is where the game falls short. Sometimes theres lag and somtimes theres glitches and blaa blaa blaa, but none of that matter's the games multiplayer is still fun to play when your finished the campaign mode and have played through horde mode. Also the new "horde mode" takes a great twist. horde mode pits you against increasingly hard and numerous enemy's in a frantic fight to survive. The super gory finishing moves are absoulutely awsome. I find myself thinking of the words "FINISH HIM" every time i get the chance to execute an enemy. Theres nothing more satisfying then puting a chainsaw in a locust's back and watch him twitch in pain as blood jumps through the air landing on sorrounding objects. The game will defidently keep things interesting until the end so if your a fan of the first gears of war or even if your not than you'll want to check this game out. Awsome. Simply awsome.
