What a game. I just finished Gears last night and all i can say is i was impressed. The story is more involved this time around, and a lot of questions are answered. With every question answered a new one takes it place leaving the game open to another sequel. Unlike halo 2 however the story feels complete. Gameplay has improved, but mostly the established system has been polished more than new gameplay has been added. The boss fights are stellar complete and challenging as well making them yet another step above the first gears bosses. all and all i give it a 10 cause it is the most fulfilling game I've played this year. I am a gears fan so there is a bit of bias, but even with that aside i still feel it is a game worthy of anyone's attention.
I should mention my one and only con with this game just to be fair. It is a glitch issue with cover that i ran into most in one boss fight. It wasn't a big deal for me but it could cause someone frustration. Also I played the game through on hardcore the first time around, and that difficulty is the one in which my review is based.
