- Unparalleled gameplay. Gears of War 2 takes the award-winning gameplay of the original and improves upon it in every way. The genre-defining cover system is further refined, making the "stop and pop" gameplay more intuitive. Dynamic cover is given new meaning as downed opponents can be picked up and used as shields. The intimate violence of the battlefield is heightened when combatants engage in chainsaw duels. Destructible environments and vicious new finishing moves add to the over-the-top experience.
- Jaw-dropping visuals. Gears of War 2 continues to raise the graphics bar through its breathtaking visual effects, made possible through advances in Unreal Engine 3.
- Engaging experience that pulls you in and won't let go. Gears of War 2 takes deep and immersive storytelling in videogames to greater heights. Players connect with humanity's battle for survival on a personal level as they move through a story that introduces new characters and sheds light on the histories of familiar ones.

Or recruit four friends to battle in the new game mode "Horde," where you'll fight together to fend off a seemingly endless onslaught of Locust forces to attain the highest score.
- Fierce and varied competitive multiplayer action. Gears of War 2 features eight distinct multiplayer modes, including the new Wingman, Guardian and Submission modes, where up to 10 players choose a side and pit their courage and battlefield mettle directly against others. In addition, multiplayer bots are available to sharpen your skills offline or to fill out your online private matches on Xbox LIVE.
Gears of War 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the 5 million-selling blockbuster action game and one of the most popular Xbox 360 games in history.
Players continue as Marcus Fenix, a reluctant war hero and leader of Delta Squad, six months after the events of "Gears of War." The last cities on Sera are sinking, swallowed by a new Locust threat from below. A massive counterattack is humanity's last hope for survival. Gears of War 2 blends a best-in-class third-person shooter with unsurpassed high-definition visuals, all layered on top of an engaging story of survival, loss and retribution. Gears of War 2 is developed by Epic Games exclusively for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system.

Great Game, Bad GOTY Package
Anakes | 12/10/2009 | See all Anakes' reviews (6) »
This game has been reviewed countless times before so i will not bore you with the details of the game, this review is for the GOTY package and in all honesty its just plain bad.
This GOTY does indeed include all the map packs and the extra campaign chapter thats on the xbox live marketplace, however the content comes in the form of a code on a piece of card that you scratch off and imput on xbox live, other GOTY editions out there like the new Fable 2 one, the previous Oblivion GOTY and the upcoming Fallout 3 GOTY were smart enough to include the content on the main game disc or on a second disc so you can use it again and again, this game does no such thing so basically once you have used the code it ceases to be a GOTY editon of Gears 2.
In closing, the game is great but is letdown by a sub-par GOTY edition that other games do so much better.
Gears 2 Ultimate!
