Sold only for the Xbox 360, Gears of War 2 is a much-anticipated sequel. As a tactical action game, it's fast-paced and adrenaline-charged. It's predecessor, Gears of War, sold 4.7 million copies and and ranked among the most popular Xbox games in history.
The second installment picks up six months later and continues the epic battle between humanity and the Locust Horde that lives underground. While the game is full of action there's also a story there – it's not just about killing enemies.
The reluctant hero, Marcus Fenix, seems to really understand the emotions of loss, survival, and retribution. Couple that with more weapons, new characters, nastier enemies, and better locales, and there are more thrills and more emotionally and physically charged moments for any gamer who was a fan of the first Gears of War installment.
