Sonic Unleased on PS3. It's a fun game, but frustrating at times.

Alright- I finally finished the campaign mode and I must say that the gameplay is great. I finished the game on normal in 8-10 hours- it probably would have been less but I watched the countless minutes of cinematics

. My only gripe with the story mode is the ending...Im not going to spoil it for anyone, but lets just say it could have ended better- a lot of anticipation went nowhere. The multiplayer mode has a lot of upgrades including a matchmaking system (online), but it doesn't work to well. I've never been a big fan of Gears online because of the crazy lag, and glitching in the game, but I do like horde mode- you can play this online or off with up to four people. Horde mode is sort of like Nazi Zombie mode in COD 5 where you fight waves of locust members starting at LvL 1 and gets harder the more levels you complete.

I think Gears 2 is a half of step up from it's predecessor with continuing to offer good gameplay and adding more options for people who play offline and online. Epic (makers of Gears) need to continue tweaking the online modes to offer 98% lag free games 9.5/10
