It would have been nice to play without hearing so many foul words. My brother is only 8 and my parents don't want him being exposed.
What's great about it: good price, fun to play
What's not so great: use of bad words

I have been playing this game for months. Sure I will play other games, but once these games have been beaten, I will always come back to gears. The campaign is great because it can be played in multiple difficulties and can also be played co-op (either over xbox live, split screen, or system link). Online play is amazing and does not get old. Online multiplayer offers a great variety of modes as well. Horde, Warzone, Annex, Wingman etc. Remains on the top of my list as best xbox360 game to play online. The only major downfall is that during ranked online matches, if the host quits a match, the game is forfeited and no XP points are rewarded.
What's great about it: Online, Variety, Difficulty
What's not so great: When host quits, game end
I would recommend this to a friend!

This game is the best of the best, amazing graphics, well written story, and tons of fun whether playing online of offline. This is a game defiantly not meant for 16 and under, but a great game for older fans of video games.
What's great about it: Every single thing.
What's not so great: A few glitches when playing online.

its a good buy in my opinion because all the down loadable content comes on a redeemable card this means all the maps, and the deleted scene plus it still comes with a free 48 hour trial of gold membership so you can do multilayer right as soon as you purchase it

This is a great game that many people should buy. Horde mode is fun, even though its repetitive and the campaign is very inspiring. Online play is very fun although the lag is pretty bad.
What's great about it: great graphics, original gameplay, awesome online play

Game is fun to play, a little too easy at times, decent length, seems to be a lot of repetition(as in a lot of games unfortunately).
What's great about it: too many to name
What's not so great: not too difficult

Defective Disks
Customer Rating

Posted by: Jefft51
from Oregon
on 11/18/2009
The first disk wouldn't play(xbox360) even though other disks had no problems so I returned it. BB was good about the exchange. The new one wouldn't play either. I searched about it and found lots of other complaints similar to this and some steps to make sure it was a disk and not the xbox (clear the cache etc.) Someone said that looking closely at the bad disk you could see where the glue was not put down even on the manufacturing. Sure enough, I could see what looked kind of like a wet stain part way around the center hole. (No wasn't a wet stain) It's easiest to see if you look close with a flashlight. Apparently there is a Quality Control issue with these disks. I'll be exchanging/returning this one in the next couple of days
What's not so great: Bad disks
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The game itself is only decent, the only way to play it is online but what I can't stand is the host advantage and horrible lag. Why the hell should there be any advantage? And seriously people, get a better connection before playing online!
What's great about it: Online play
What's not so great: The worst lag ever if one person has bad connection

This is GEARS 2!!! GEt this. In my personal opinion, not quite as good as the first gears but you need to get it..... it's hard to beat the first gears, so just because I say that this one isn't as good doesn't mean you shouldn't get it!
What's great about it: it's GEARS!!!
