Gears of War 2 thread

Was anyone else kind of disapponted with this game? For all the hype I heard about it being bigger and better I found it to be almost exactly like the first game. That's not a bad thing, as I loved the first. But given that the then revolutionary gameplay isn't as much of a revelation the second time around I found it harder to overlook the weak story (seriously, that last level is just plain silly. Worst final boss of all time).

My XBOX is getting fixed now (third time in two months, morons) so I haven't gotten online yet, although I'm sure that's fun. But I don't know, I heard so much about how the scale of the game blows away the first one and, save for a few scenes, I found it to be pretty much the same game of tunnel hunting.

Now that I'm sure most of us have finished it what do you guys think?

Also, Dead Space or Fallout 3 for my next game?
