Forums - Microsoft - The vgchartz ranking game--Gears of War 2

9.0/10

Improves on almost every aspect of the first game. Graphics (which are still tops to this day) are slightly improved, and framerate is more stable. Multiplayer to this day is broken in its lagginess, time to connect and nonsensical level system but is still lots of fun. Campaign(&co-op campaign) is short but a blast. Horde mode is rediculous fun playing on system link.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Graphic beast. Prettier than Killzone2 imo (and yes, I bought Killzone2 day1).
Epic soundtrack. Epic journey.



     

My Gaming Setup

8.5/10

+ Fun to play, nice co-op
decent graphics, albeit buggy.
excellent MP.

Graphical flaws, pop in, low textures.
hallway pathes, no real open environments
lame weapons, little to no variation on campaign when compared to the first one.
gameplay is incredibly stale
horrible community
multiplayer is a downgrade from the first game, though still the best the 360 has to offer.



Should be a requirement that you own the game to or at least own a 360. If you know what I mean.



It's just that simple.

9.2

I loved both games (first and second) .

I strongly believe you don't have the slightest idea what you're talkin about...

I mean, low textures and grpah. flaws?

Come on mate, you sticked to some early (pro-release date) fanboy rants that unfortunately saw the light of day.

and...

VARIATION of campaign??? COMPARED TO THE FIRST ONE???   ... You didn't even play the tutorial hah?

Anyway, enough with the late repressed hate. You don't have a clue, and that's all.

 

9,5 cause it takes EVERY aspect of the first game a little (or more) further.



9.5/10

-Amazing Single player with great coop, great graphics, just plain fun, multiplayer is good when it connects
-Matchmaking is a pain if you're low on patience



 

I'm giving it a 9.5. This is definitely fun to play with two people even though most of the time I did not. The campaign may contain the most action I've ever seen in a video game (especially Act 5 which is like action on steroids). Horde mode is awesome. I never played matchmaking when it released, and while it isn't terrible now, there are sometimes you can find a match within seconds and other times it takes a few minutes. Also, I'm not a fan of letting people vote for what game they want to play, mainly because Execution gets chosen every time. Oh, and I forgot to mention that this is still the best looking 360 game.

I'm sort of like the opposite of CGI, I enjoyed this one more than the first one and still play it online from time to time.

10/10

And can you please exclude Garnett's score? That's a score from a hater and is not accepted. And CGI's score should also be excluded since he's a Sony fan (obviously he'd give Gears 2 at least 9.3 if it was a PS3 game).
