4 TIMES FOR ME!!! THE GAME IS JUST SO AWESOME!!!

I beat the original Gears of War//8 times//lol//that's how awesome this series is//I can't wait to own Gears of War 2.

Gears 2 I've played through twice by myself and 4 with friends on co-op. One of the best co-op games of this gen for sure.

I've gone through twice. Once on Normal, once on Hardcore... Have been thinking about Insane, but I have a lot of other games that I need to go through too.

Being a 360 owner is hard. Prioritization is key, and time is never enough.

So far, zero times. But I have played it and it's really fun. My cousin has a 360.

twice

Just once, been waiting for my brother to come home so we can do CO-OP.

Beat it once on single player and once on co-op. Also got all the way through Horde Mode with two other people. It's funny this thread came up--recently I have been on a Gears of War binge. I've been home sick from work for the last two days and finally just finished co-op mode on Gear 2 and FINALLY finished the last couple chapters of Gears 1. (I had started it once on PC and once on Xbox and never finished either until today!!)

Also, just to get a tad off topic--Gears 2 seemed like a much more epic game than Gears 1, but Gears 1 seems like it was a harder game in general. I also feel that Gears 2 has more reasonable criteria for achievements (except for Seriously 2.0 of course). In general, I felt that Gears 2 improved the experience with graphics, gameplay, and story line, but both were terrific games. I just found 2 to be much better.

Twice.

Too bad my brother and my friends suck at this game, so I can't beat it on the hardest difficulty. (No I won't play it alone on Insane :D )

Three times. Just gotta do it on Insane now, but I've been waiting to do it in co-op so that (1) I have a chance at succeeding and (2) I get all that extra gamerscore.
