Personally with so many other top tier titles hitting the shelves, this one is amidst a lengthy list, and definitely not on the top of it. If they canned another 4 and a half hour Campaign into the disc, I'll be seriously disappointed.
Thank you, I thought that I was the only person who was not as impressed with this game as everybody else. A buddy of mine is getting GoW2 and is letting me borrow it when he is done. We will see then

Actually, I was never much a fan either. The only reason it ever got played is cause I had friends who were always on. I didn't enjoy it very much, too repetitive.

So far the game play seems to be pretty good and the graphics are absolutely nuts. Can't wait to finish the game and get online

I guess I shouldn't mention there was a "version" flying around WEEKS ago. Need a "tweaked" 360 for it though.

I think the new online play is absolutely crap. You can't pick the type of game or the level or anything. Unless you are in a private match the connections can suck, they pick hosts after the fact and if you are playing people from other countries you can be screwed. Horde is very fun and gets crazy around 30 or so. I just wish the online game play kept up with the graphics.

So know that you guys have been playing it for a while what do you think?
I really liked Gears 1, but finished the campaign in one day and I really never played it online much. I think if I were to get it, it would only be for the campaign simply because I really don't see myself playing this online over CoD4. Do you think it would be worth getting for that alone?

I didn't care for GOW 1 but I am digging part 2. I am working on the solo part first before I do any MP.

I go the game it came out and hope its better than gers one multiplayer. Hord mode is cool. With some buds I got up to level 9 on hardcore.

I guess I should bring one of my controllers so we can run some co-op at your HERF tomorrow?

i heard it will be a trilogy. i finished it last week. i play online every once in a while. the lag sucks horribly and i feel like i get screwed so much because of it. i'm on a 20/20 line so it shouldn't be that way but it is.
