This is such a great game. The campaign mode is great, and worth the money all by itself. I personally am not a big fan of a lot of the multi player games out there, BUT- the all new game type called HORDE MODE is just AMAZING!!!!!! By far my favorite of any game anywhere!!! There is tons of replay value in just horde mode, plus a great campaign mode, and several other types of multi-player matches make this my favorite game ever!
Borrow it, rent it, or buy it, do what you need to do, just make sure you play this game!
Note- this is the regular Gears of War 2 with 19 new maps and a deleted campaign scene. If you already own the game, just download the new content (called dark corners for 12 new maps, or all fronts for a total of 19 new maps). The new maps have added hours and hours of replay value to an already fantastic game. Like I said, just get it already.
