I am totally getting this the day it comes out, but something is stopping me from really getting pumped for it. I feel like I need to force myself to get excited - it doesn't just happen normally. That being said, the game looks spectacular and I can't wait to blow away some Locust.

That was a terrible review, not score wise, but quality wise. He didn't go into detail about anything, I felt more informed about the game by the launch trailer.

So My Full-On Spoiler Story Review of Gears of War 2mynameisdigo


I Don't see anything wrong with the story ... it most certianly has a more meaningfull story and its way more epic then the first one , i bet the third one would be the best story - wise since it would be wrapping everything in an epic ending.

[QUOTE="EuroMafia"][QUOTE="too_much_eslim"][QUOTE="zepman71"]

I'm actually surprised by how excited I am for this game. The singleplayer looks short but very, very sweet and the multiplayer looks exceptional. I'm getting a gold account just for this game :D

Well, that and Banjo...>_>

too_much_eslim

single player will at least be 10 to 12hrs.

Took me 10 hours, a little longer than the first.

Hey how would you rate the game.? Also is there a lot more stuff that hasn't been shown through the media already?

9.5

I'm on my second playthrough, this time on hardcore (got a lot of shooting practice playing Horde)

How long did it take for you to finish the campaign? I've seen two reviews, one said 8hrs and the other said 12...

Obviously. Honestly, who would mod their 360 to play the game early. You can't play online with a modded 360 so you miss out on half of the game.

Well you can softmod then revert back to microsofts own firmware. Ask the folks above who have played it and may or may not have pirated the game - online might not be a concern to to them at all.

Any of you guys know if they're still bundling Gears 2 with a Lancer? There was a blog about it here in GS but couldn't find it.

I thought about going to the midnight launch, but I don't feel like waiting in line for the game plus I have an Exam on Friday morning. I will just be in awe looking at others using the gold hammerburst online lol.

i think geow2 will get a 9.0! i've seen some reviews and all of them say the single player is verry good but a little bit the same ( no problem for me ), IGN previews are positive, but they always mentione somehow it fells alot like the first. And gamespot's harsh lately, so i think it would get a 8.5-9.

Then there is horde that will make this game 9.0! :)

It's just what I make out of the reviews en previews.

ow, and i think resistance 2 will get a 9.5 here, just because it's a bigger jump from the first ( i heard ). Not that i care, i don't have a PS3.

So if this was the case: scorewise it will look like resistance 2 is better, but that isn't necessarily true! Look at legend of zelda: twilight princess... Awsome game! but it only got a 8.8 because it looked too much like OOT! Score won't say everything about how good a game is!

we will see tomorrow

No, my friend. Tomorrow, system wars ends. There will be nothing but destruction and chaos. The flood of damage control will be the worst we have ever seen.

I honestly want Gears 2 to flop and Resistance 2 to get AAAAE, it would be funny. The complete opposite of the way things were in 2007.
