Gears of War 2: So much fun.
I'm going to tell you something, if you have an XBox360, get yourself Gears of War 2.
No questions asked. Just go get it.
I play alot of games, and I haven't played a game that just THIS MUCH FUN to play. There's so many layers upon layers of fun, great co-op play, great graphics, and great gameplay.
This is THE game to get to play with friends online.
It takes place in a gorgeously, detailed, ugly environment; where you fight against an enemy called The Hoard, that you, as a humanoid race, are fighting against for your own survival. The story this time is much darker than the first installation of the game, but the same third-person, duck and cover gameplay is still intact. The most sublime part of the game, in my opionion, is the active reload, which is really like a little mini game. When you run out of ammo for your weapon, and push the reload button once and then twice with the correct timing, you're rewarded with bonuses specific to your weapon. Plus, an active reload is faster than a passive reload, which can mean the difference between life and death (or continue playing or go back to your last checkpoint) in this game, especially when you're up against some big, badasses that are in some ways, better and more entertaining than the first game.
Bottom line, go get it and hook up with me on XBox Live: peeek
