Dude me and my friends played the SHIT out of Gears 1 and 2. With G2 I played alot of online but whenever me and my buddies played we played with bots. It was actually really fun and the bots were pretty fun. Mainly because there were alot of flaws with online multiplayer and everything just felt smoother (but still challenging) with bots on insane.

Right now, it's like Gears 2 but with so many more options, plus Hoard is pretty fucking killer. I was playing and then BOOM fucking Brumak out of no where.

Awesome weapons, stuff to unlock, more achievments, the new "tower defense" style to hoard takes some adjusting too if you're used to old Hoard, but it's really fucking awesome once you get the hang of it. Having to "buy" weapon pickups instead of just grabbing what you want is a little frustrating at first, but then you start to love it. Adds so much more depth to the gameplay.

Beast mode seems hard as hell, and I haven't gotten too far. Only thing I don't like is the time limit. I wish it was more open like Hoard, haven't played much yet though.
