I have been moaning about the GeoW 2 MP for a while now due to balancing issues, and while I have enjoyed a few of my king of the hill matches, they were still not that great, and I still felt that the balance was off (I had gotten over half my kills from the chainsaw). However, I tried horde, and it is incredible!
Because you are playing against the computer, it doesn't have the problem where people are impossible to kill (I think I was playing on normal difficulty) and even without that much co-ordination we did well, and it was challenging for the most part. It is quite tough, and we died on wave 16, but I think some people had given up, though I couldn't quite hear what everyone was saying, it did degenerate to some faggot calling...
Anyway, it was much better than I expected, and I strongly encourage you to give it a go if you haven't, it does truly deserve that spot on the main menu, it is that good. It also comes with the added bonus of booting my stats on Gears of War.com!
