The story line in campaign mode is nice and long and adds to the already great story line form GoW. The Co-op campaign allows for players with varying experience play together on different difficuties and it also has easy drop in play so that you can continue your current campaign session. The online play has been expanded from the first game, adding Horde mode (fighting prgressively stronger groups of enemies). All in all, this game is a definately a must buy.
What's great about it: Awesome story line with great graphics
