Sweet, been wanting some of the achievements that go with leveling up, but I get obliterated by all the people on there who play this game constantly. This makes it feel worth my time (from an achievement whore perspective).

Why are there so many XP events on Gears of War 2? Is it that hard to rank up?

I think this one is mainly to try and reduce the amount of people that jump to MW2...Which won't work. I refuse to play a Gears game without a dedicated server. Sad really, I bought my 360 for Gears 1 and Gears 2 was terrible online. If they don't add dedicated servers for Gears 3, it's just a rental for me.

Campaign was great but multiplayer was a joke! I quickly put his back on the shelf after I beat the game. I continued to play COD4, WaW and Halo3. I think Epic is desparate because Gears 2 online isnt top dog like they thought they'd be. Also i think there scared cause MW2 is coming out and they'll outsell them and there game with also Halo3, WaW and COD4 will make people forget about Gears of War 2

It's still top dog in my books. It's the only online I play on the 360.

What is the point of getting XP when you don't even unlock anything? They need to add progressional unlockables in the next game.

Great more people playing to make the lag worst than before but maybe more people will equal a shorter wait time to get into a laggy match! See there is a plus side!
