This game has an awesome campaign and the monsters are awesome. My only gripe about the campaign is the choppy frame rate. The online play is horrible. Continuously throws party out of xbox live no matter who the host is. The matchmaking takes thirty to forty five minutes. The online play is not worth the hassel until this gets fixed. All my other games for my xbox 360 never have an of these problems. Would not recommend buying if you want to play onlline. Also read other forumns and many people are having the same problems.
What's great about it: awesome campaign, horde is also very good online idea,awesome monsters
What's not so great: has many online problems,horde is one of them, takes forever to get a game going online
