I have just played it because I could download it for free with live gold. I had played GOW 3 for curiosity on summer 2015 and I found it kind of heavy and gruesome and kind of repetitive but anyway nice. Now after playing GOW 2 I can space my view better. I have to say GOW 2 IS AMAZING not just given the time it came out 2007\2008 ! But simply because it has some epic scenes. I don't want to give "spoilers" even if they can't be spoilers 8 year after it came out, but I want to reccomend that if you haven't played it yet, well, you must do it, if you want to play Gears 4 ... it's just lot of fun and it looks like a modern game ... I always play MAX DIFFICULTY level, so even if I had to repeat quite a number of times some parts I was definitely satisfied. Well done. The story looks like is never ending in GOW 2 ... lots of levels, diversity of gameplay, some really fun moments. And even in hard difficulty it is not boring HARD, but feasable. Well done guys well done Devs etc ... if ever you are reading me. See ya M4hrX

Great atmosphere and level designs, enemies that don't die in 2 bullets, and unique gameplay. Also, I find that Gears of War has some of the coolest looking enemy designs out there. Right up there with the Resistance series! I've beaten Gears1 about 3 times. Cannot wait to try this!

As for the console wars- I own a PS3, Xbox 360 and a Wii, PS3 and 360 have their own unique strengths that make them both equally great. I love them both, but I cannot say as much for the Wii. I really wish fanboys of Sony and Microsoft would combine and rip on the Wii!

Loading times take forever (it loads to cancel). Cover is jumpier, and I personally find it harder to control your guy. Gears 3 should basically just cut loading times to nothing like they did in Gears 1, have and include all the flash of gears 2, have some nice, easy to familiarize maps, the option to actually host games, customize games, continue gaming on the same host, choose your team, better achievements, etc., etc (all of which was in gears 1). Also, chainsaw duels = more balance.

Gears 2 has more patches made than gears 1 and it's only been out a year and two months. I feel that gears 2 was a big experiment. They put in new mechanics to see what worked and what didn't. The gears team will know what to have and what not to have in their future gears games at least I hope. A deeper smarter matchmaking system is needed like HALO'S system I really REALLY hope they get rid of that stupid stunning affect of the smoke bomb.
