Probably the best Gears campaign I played, got this for 97 cents at gamestop

Super fun game. Online was great, campaign was great, horde mode was great.

Looks better than Gears 1. Plays better than Gears 1. More enemies than Gears 1. Better story than Gears 1.


Despite not being as diverse and complex gameplay-wise like the following installments, this game hold a special place in my heart and still is my favorite Gears game.

Lancersaw SOUND
Pew pew pew EVERYWHERE!
The hammerburst still epic weapon!
The game is very good!

broooo you cut up a giant worm's butt gross

Another good Gears game, great story and decent gameplay.

"Anya, it's a giant worm. THEY'RE SINKING CITIES WITH A GIANT WORM!"

Oscar worthy writing right there

Please see Gears of War review, it's the same

Horde mode! I played Horde for days and nights. The Campaign made me cry for the first time playing a game.

My first game on the Xbox 360.

Brabo, mas é o que eu menos gosto da trilogia. Acho o visual meio esquisito, mas é daora.

I never understood the criticisms of the environments in these games as they're beautiful in a melancholic sense and tell a lot about the degradation of these societies in the face of constant war. Plus the Locust areas look big and gothic.

The gameplay feels less focused on Gears albeit with some nice new weapons, enemy types and less egregiously bad checkpoint placement. They've consciously opted for a more epic game and it works in some places (the giant worm sequence will always be gloriously daft) but fails in other places where you can see the strains of the console already showing with 50 enemies running in the same motion being gunned down in two hits.

All in all, it's fine? Not as memorable for me from my teenage years although that may come down to how long I spent playing Gears 1 but a good enough follow up.

PS: the less said about the Dom storyline the better. Just turgid and the emotional payoff is further undercut by how bad the graphics are in those scenes.

Esse jogo é tão perfeito que chega dói. Eu amo o desenvolvimento do arco do Dom, os novos personagens introduzidos, os mapas mais abertos e tudo mais, é simplesmente uma sequência perfeita, aumenta pra krl o escopo em relação ao primeiro jogo, fooooooooooooooda.

It takes the formula of Gears of War and refines it, there's not much to complain about.

MARIAAA

Decent story with some banger maps in multiplayer.

Mantém a qualidade do primeiro, jogo, algumas adições, uma pitada maior de drama na história, outro excelente jogo para se jogar coop.

Correr, correr, matar monstros, explodir coisas e é isso até o final. Divertidinho, mas nada demais.

Just overall bigger and better than its predecessor, everything you want from a sequel to a genre-defining game.

Maravilhoso, mas não é melhor que o primeiro.


I spent so much time playing horde on this

Unfortunately, I could not enjoy the multiplayer (not the games fault). Campaign was fun, but not as good as the first. Ending seemed a bit off.
