Xbox 360: Gears of War 2

Gears of War 2 feels like an action-packed blockbuster film. Its gripping single player campaign continues mankind's epic struggle against the Locust Horde, a race of homicidal aliens hell bent on sinking Jacinto, the last great human city on the planet Sera. As one-man wrecking crew Marcus Fenix, we shredded our enemies with 17 weapons, including the trusty Lancer Assault Rifle, the Scorcher Flamethrower and an excellent Mulcher chain gun. Exciting new features, such as Chainsaw Duels and the ability to use bad guys as Meat Shields, intensify combat, while epic cut scenes and a thunderous soundtrack added to the cinematic experience. This enthusiasm carried over to the game's online multiplayer modes, where we slaughtered players in bloody five-on-five deathmatches and other game types across 15 maps (10 new locations and five from the previous Gears). We're also in love with Horde, a new mode where a five-person squad attempts to outlast 50 waves of increasingly difficult creatures.

DIANOMYTE: Get a Nintendo DS. It has a slot for Gameboy Advance Games as well so you'll find all the remakes and ports and continuums of your Super Nintendo games that you desire there for the most part.

nintendo ? I don't get out much so I don't know about the latest games or what they are played on. But I sure miss my super Nintendo. It finally broke down about a year ago. Now I miss it more and more as time goes by. I miss the type of games I played on it most of all and I don't know if they make them for the newer x box. Can someone tell me if any games are on the newer boxes or not. I am refering to games like dr mario and tetrus and pac man. Can any one help me wirh info? Dianomyte

I bought gears of war 2 the opening ***ht and i have to say it was 100% worth the line and pre-order money and time. If you parents want a good video game thats worth your money for one of your childs video games this is the one. i have been playing video games my whole life for (16 years) and this is by far the best game ever. The multi player the single player are amazing and the visuals are stunning...though this franchise is big on gore dont go crazy if you see chainsaw gore and brains..for heed the warning its intense

Powerfulone87: Yeah, I just saw a tv commercial saying it's released Dec. 4th, so I don't know what those XBOX360 Advertisements and Gamespot are talking about.
