this game has been long waited since the first came out. the storyline destroys halo's story and the gameplay is much better you can almost never get bored playing a gears of war game. They've added about 5 or six new weapons to make online play even more strategical each with its own execution move and different styles of play. the new features like the human shield and the actual shield make big groups actually survivable unlike in the first also making the upgrading the lancer and its chainsaw it may be the new primary weapon of choice because its much more accurate and it carries more bullets at a time. Overall this game will have a great campaign and spectacular multiplayer its the only most have this year besides call of duty and fable 2. In other words...... GET THIS GAME
What's great about it: You couldn't name a single game for about two years in a row that was better then the first gears of war
