Video Game Review – Gears of War 2
Sorry for this review taking so long to go up – when I originally downloaded the gameplay footage from Skorch82 for this video review, it was somehow corrupted – which meant I couldn’t convert it from FLV, which meant I couldn’t edit it in properly. Thus, I had to re-download all the video on the fly while I was editing the video. Hence the delay. However, the work is done and now my review is presented for your consideration.
Now, without further ado, I prevent my review of Gears of War 2. Enjoy!
