Gears of War 2
The Phils win the World Series, Obama takes the crown and now Gears of War 2 comes out today, and we got our hands on an early copy. First impressions: Everything is bigger, brighter, bloodier; the Locust are larger in numbers and size, but your weapons more brutal than ever; and the spaces are more open and the action well-paced. The underground scenes are especially beautiful, and there’s actually a story this time! Some negatives: vehicle levels can be amazingly annoying, and auto-saves can be in weird spots. Verdict: Find the $60 and get it. Love, Nick
