It's a fantastic game. But Gears of War 2 managed to top it in every single way. This isn't just one of the best sequels ever, it's unquestionably one of my favourite games of all-time. The gang is back: Marcus, Dom, Baird, and of course, the Cole Train. The story picks up after the events of the first game, and while the combat remains the same, they found a way to improve on it and throw you into so many different scenarios that it never feels played out or boring. Sick story, new weapons, awesome locations, and you even run around inside a giant worm. How could anyone not love Gears 2?? The Dom to my Marcus, my buddy Tyler, returns to the show this week. I love Gears 2 for the campaign, and Tyler gushes about it as well, but also takes a dive into his love of Horde mode and the rest of the multiplayer offerings Gears 2 has to offer. This was as much fun as I've had recording an episode in a long time, and I hope we made all you Gears heads proud.
