Gears Of War 2 worth the 60 Bucks.

5 out of 5 starsScore: 100/100

Honestly I love gears of war. The first one was so appealing and this one was just bigger and better. Although the story-line didn't seem as good this time around it was still enjoyable. I love this game and everything about it and have put many hours into this game. Although I love everything about it it didnt get a full 5 stars because of  a few minor issues that I get from living overseas. Since living in Japan I have so much lag that I can hardly play. Although I usually lag in all games gears seems to lag a lot more then others. I can hardly be able to contribute to the game. Another thing is the matchmaking this time around. Its a lot slower and I have waited for 20 minutes to get into a game. Although it is faster now its still slow compared to anything else. Gears of war 2 is an awesome game and has a really good online. If you want a fun shooter with a lot of blood this game is for you. The achievements are all doable except for "Seriously 2.0". I have almost every achievement except 4. Its a good game and fun as well. Well done achievements that give you a challenge but aren't going to rip your hair out for. Fun game and in my opinion a must by for any 360 owner!
