Unlockables are too easy to unlock

The Gears of War series is set to become a veritable action gaming institution with the first in the series firmly entrenched in the hearts of gamers as a classic. Gears of War 2 will undoubtedly follow suit.

The graphics are outstanding and exciting new multiplayer modes and weapons keep it fresh

The vehicle control system is a bit tough to master and the plot tries to get too deep

It's safe to say that sales dictate the commercial success of a game, but a gaming success is something that latches onto the collective consciousness of the gaming community and doesn't let go.

Gears of War 2 is a fantastic game, with the Horde Multiplayer co-op mode being our favourite way to pass the time at the moment.

Back in 2006, Gears of War came out for the Xbox 360 and shocked the videogame industry. The game was hyped up for months prior to its release and received vast coverage from the gaming media. When the game finally came to be released, it opened to both large critical acclaim and sales.

Gears of War 2 hits you like an assault-rifle mounted chainsaw to the face.

Remains the most intense action series on the market; absolutely sublime graphics and production values; superb multiplayer for both co-op and competitive gamers; surprisingly lengthy campaign; tight controls; more balanced difficulty over the original

While improved over the original, storyline is still weak; can't quit multiplayer matches without resetting the game

The original game "Gears of War" was one of the best games of 2007, winning numerous awards and bringing break through gameplay to many gamers. Now, 2 years later how does the sequel square up to the original, and how can one improve on near perfection. Overview Monkey dogs.

Gears2 is a kick ass game, one of the best IMO... but I like Resistance 2's online much MUCH better. It is like two games in one almost, in a good way. Gears fans should give R2's online a try, you are almost guaranteed to love it. we don't want your Sh!T games!!!
