On 3/31/2009, Microsoft released a second pricey ($10) add-on for Gears of War 2: the Snowblind Map Pack. It includes three brand-new maps: Grind Yard, Under Hill, and Courtyard. The fourth map is Fuel Depot, a reworked map from the original Gears of War.

    Well worth the price of admission. Can't wait to try out the co-op campaign, as soon as my cheap friends pony up and buy it.

    gears of war is the best game on xbox for sure i mean come on halo is alright but i prefer a tougher game than halo all halo does is make you madd and piss your pants there is no team work in halo and of coarse you cant revive teammates so halo can stick that in ther pipe and smoke it this game is intense no matter what anyone says

    it looks kinda empty, not many enemies lurking around, i hope they just copied the Rainbow 6 concept on Team Leader, because if they copied the Rainbow 6 2 game, where huge spaces had three or four bad guys, oh mine!@

    Looks OK, just the same as the first 1 with slightly better graphics. Farcry 2 should be good, but if its like Crysis then I am going to cry because i rkn that game sucked A$$. I also rkn that fallout 3 will be better then both and Fable 2 will probably ruin my life as i slowly rot away trying to marry every girl in the game.

    Okay, Aristotle. How can you know whether the GoW gameplay is "revolutionary" if you haven't commonly agreed what the term actually means? In some respects it HAS all been done before, and the game can't possibly be revolutionary. However the way the various mechanics are implemented in the game is exceptionally well done. Looks like GoW2 is gonna be even better than the first. Let's hope!

    Three short weeks from now I will be playing Fable 2 which will keep me entertained until the sequel to my favorite game hits store shelves. I can't wait!!! I can't wait!!! I can't bloody wait!!...but sadly we have to wait...

    godofatl, your probably a main-stream gamer who only drools over mainstream titles. Farcray 2 is in no shape or form anything like its previous fails. It has a sandbox design and has been completely redone... L2 pay attention

  • diamond2d

    Posted Oct 1, 2008 8:22 am PT

    FarCry looks terrible! BORING! i'll be surprised if it gets 9.0/10

  • Atreyu606

    Posted Oct 1, 2008 12:14 am PT

    Godofatl, I have no idea what your talking about, Far Cry 2 is going to be freaking amazing. I preordered it, as well as GOW2 but I loved the original far cry, and far cry 2 is going to be even better. So no, hes not by himself. Maybe it won't surpass GOW2, but its definitely NOT gonna suck. I think its going to be one of the best FPS's out there once its released.

  • godofatl

    Posted Sep 30, 2008 10:37 pm PT

    what the fu$&?? we get shields now? man im going to love that. geow2 is going to be just as great as the first one. its going to blow everything else out the water. i stopped playing halo when Gears stepped in. o and moving_fusion if you really think FarCry2 will pass Geow2 you are by yourself. Its going to suck just like the last one. sorry guy.

    gears is cool coz of the chainsaw and violence and cool story and its fun and stuff its not a game based on a cover system and far cry 2 is just going to be muck coz its aaaaaall been done before

  • Sonic_Wolfe

    Posted Sep 30, 2008 4:20 am PT

    Gears aint a FPS tho, its a 3PS with FPS modes, lol....

  • IAMADEUM

    Posted Sep 29, 2008 9:14 pm PT

    I remember killswitch being a horrible game, regardless of the cover system it had...either way who cares if it's not revolutionary? After all, there were cover systems in the very first FPS..haha...GOW2 will certainly deliver...

  • nitsujlip

    Posted Sep 28, 2008 7:53 am PT

    does nobody remember killswitch. that game had a cover system almost identical to gears. so in my opinion, they weren't revolutionary, because it was already done. the only difference is epic paid more for pr.

    rofl, you think far cry 2 is gonna be better then gears 2? your crazy man

    I'm still loving the movable shield cover.

  • cerealkiller8

    Posted Sep 23, 2008 7:52 pm PT

    moving_fusion, gears of war had revolutionary gameplay because it inspired tons of games after it to use the cover system.

  • moving_fusion

    Posted Sep 23, 2008 8:34 am PT

    Ares360. Gears 1 had revolutionary gameplay? Quite frankly constantly sheltering behind concrete blocks which are the exact height of the characters crouch is hardly revolutionary. It was a good game, don't be fooled into thinking it was anything short of the standard FPS concoction. Very few FPS's show anything new of real value, true of COD4 as well. Farcry 2 will make GOW2 look like just another grey xbox 360 game.

    @ Awesome Anthony-how are the controls bad they were perfect for smooth gameplay and Gears is the most revolutionary gameplay that a game could have and totally owns. Hopefully though online will be better and won't have to rely on shotty all the time. Gears 1 superb, Gears 2 is kickin ass & takin names.
