5.0 out of 5 stars Cheap way to get the extra maps and mission, September 29, 2009
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This edition is exactly the original game, shrink-wrapped on it's own, same UPC code/SKU/part number. The card with the download key for the extra content is separate from that shrink-wrapped package, outside the original game, and the two pieces -original game and download card- are packaged again, with the GOTY packaging.

So you could buy this for the extra maps and mission alone, and resell (or even return) the game CD itself, as the standard GOW 2 product.

Oh, yeah, great game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great GAME, Extras are downloadable and not on disk, September 23, 2009
By EU (LA, CA United States) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I love this game (glad I waited to buy with all the extras thrown in).

Seriously, the game is better than the first one and the free maps put the icing on the cake.

The maps are not on the disk (you get a code to download the maps) but this is not a problem for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect evolution of the franchise, December 27, 2009
By M. Herzog (chicago) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Gears of War was a breath of fresh air when it came out. It had amazing graphics, unique and perfectly refined combat, and an online combat that is hard to beat. So all that was required with the sequel was to refine the first, and make it more refined. In this, the game succeeds. The levels have improved the "get stuck in one area and bombarded by bad guys" issues that were so constant throughout the first game. Not only is there a longer and more interesting campaign, there's more to do, and a new variety of actions. The graphics have been updated, and I must say, this game is far more fun with a friend through the campaign than on its own, though that is pretty fun as well. An A-List title that is great fun.

As to the game of the year edition, there's no reason to get it if you own the game already, as all you get are some codes to download the extra content. However, if you don't have it, then this is the edition to get, as the down-loadable content is almost as much as this full game. Overall its one of the best games you can get for the xbox 360, and a worthy edition to your collection. Highly recomended!
