Gears of War 2 - Xbox 360

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Terrible multiplayer
Engaging story  
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Tight controls  
Great Campaign and Great, but Ultimately Flawed, Multiplayer

First, lets start with the pros of Gears of War 2: everything about the campaign. From the brutal story to the great gameplay, the single player portion of Gears is the total package. Online multiplayer, though, is another story. Although the actual gameplay in multiplayer is fantasic, the matchmaking, sadly, is very sub par. While games like COD 4 get me into a great, balanced match in no time flat, it can take me up to five to ten minutes to get in to a Gears 2 match. Even when I do get in to a match in Gears 2, half the time the game will be horribly unbalanced and the game will turn into a slaughter. Even with the multiplayer issues, though, I would still recommend this game for purchase by all 360 owners.
