I am about to buy the All Fronts map pack, but I want to know if the online is still alive.

My gamertag is Darragh93

So add me. I want to get some online achievements mostly, and have some fun chainsawing :P

Last time I went on, which was not long ago, it was pretty active. If you ever want to know what games are still active, check out www.majornelson.com Every week there is a list of like the top 20 (i think) most played games on Xbox Live.

Alive and well. You'll get into a match quickly, especially during the weekends of course.

yes. If you can't get ranked games, go to social.

Amen to that.

I don't play that often anymore, and when I do I'm not that great.

But I don't need my teammate, who's not that much better than me, telling me how bad i suck everytime I die.

That's right I used the chainsaw to kill that guy, deal with it!

It's pretty active, you know all those bonus EXP events GOW2 is hosting. (I may want to get to level 100 though but kind of boring.

Plenty of people still play Gears 2... quite a few still play Gears 1 (you know, those people who complained hardcore about the "new" shotgun instead of getting used to it or using another weapon lol) ... though, to me, it seems the most played game modes are annex and guardian. :) I play guardian myself.
