When i got Gears 2 the first thing i did was to play the campaign all the way through on hardcore....i was extremely pleased and shocked by how much effort had gona into this to make it a classic...after this i decided to play horde mode which was fun for a while.....then the multiplayer came....the new matchmaking system has ruined the entire experience for me...you have no choice about which gametype you play and whilst writing this review my xbox is "searching for an opposing team of similar skill" and has been stuck on this for at least 8 minutes now....and it it like this most of the time....which makes the multiplayer a real let down.....also epic decided that they would make the shotgun completely useless and make the lancer a superweapon because some people didnt like all the shotgun battles from gears 1....however epic should have balanced the two weapons instead of making one superpowerfull and the other about as usefull as hitting a lambent brumak with a sponge.... Overall: 9/10 ps: im still waiting for the wingman match to start.....DAMN YOU EPIC GAMES!!!!
