Games Toaster: Gears of War 2 Review

Gears 2 feels more like Gears 1.5, sure the visuals have been polished, environments are far more varied and there's some nice visual touches but overall pretty much everything remains the same. Characters flounder around like drunken rugby players, gameplay is exactly the same. Run around, duck behind an a burnt out car then pop out and shoot an alien or three.
