  • gears anyone?

    Anyone on here play any gears? I mean weather it be the first one or the piece of crap gears 2 they put out?

    I say this because gears one might not have had the most amazing campaign mode but at least you could play online. I mean you can play gears 2 online but get ready to have a ulcer or two. I mean even after being out for a while the multiplayer is still crap. I picked it up a few days ago because I just brought a new xbox and figured I have been playing gears one all this time and have loved it. I get home and play the story mode first and was very pleased. Then it was to multiplayer and it was all down hill. I mean i have herd from numerous friends and people on gears one that gears 2 online was so bad. I figured I would ignore them and give it a try I mean well it has been out for a long time they have to had relased some updates to help make it better.

    Sadly I was wrong, very wrong. I mean I hop on gears two and watch my guy shoot a person in the face with the shotgun 3 times to only have them respond with a one shot from theirs and my body is blown to pieces. Anyone that ever played gears knows that lag was always a problem but gears 2 raises that to the 20th power. It not like Im a bad player I know that. I can hop on gears one and dominate not as host and I dont active. But on gears 2 I find myself fighting for every active I can get to just have a chance.

    The one thing I did learn from gears 2 is that dont go out and buy gears 3 right away but first to see if the multiplayer is as crap as the 2 one. Epic said they changed things because the gears one game was a shotgun fest. Yea but at least it was a good one, on gears 2 the shotgun is a crap shoot, and instead of being my go to weapon like in one Im almost reluctant to pull it out at times because only god knows if the bullets will actually work.

    Does anyone else feel this way about 2? Or am I just insane?

    I was the biggest fan of the first one on xbox. Played it non-stop. Was undefeated with my sniping partner against some of the other top snipers in the game.

    Hated the 2nd one with a burning passion

      Also had so much fun exploring every glitch in the first one and messing with people.

      It was such a great social game.

        I loved Gears one but 2nd game was a huge disappointment. I will always be a fan of the series I love the story mode a lot but multiplayer is crap I hope they change it for Gears of War 3...

            I think the Gears 2 single player (I always play coop) made up for the crappy multiplayer. Still think Gears 3 could be the best next-gen game, and I hope Epic learned some lessons from Gears2 and the social problems it had.

              Gears 2 campaign was really good but at the end of the day I buy almost every game just for the online play except 2k basketball and baseball since their my player modes are great. I think gears three will be so cheesy just for the simple fact they are still trying to appeal to casual gamers and they love that kind of stuff. I mean look what has happened to COD.

              I wont mind the cheesy play as long as they fix online and put the shotgun back to gears one style. I dont care if a person has a death ray that shoots sharks as long as I have the gears one shotgun I will be all good.

                I never had a problem online, I mean I wasn't always topping the scoreboard every game but I could hold my own. Maybe because I never use the shotgun, I'm an assault rifle kinda guy, always have been. I agree that the story in campaign carries the game, there were times where it would just get to me. Im looking forward to number 3

                  All I use is the shotgun lol. To me that is the face of the franchise and the main reason i loved the game in the first place.
