We've had Gears of War 2 for awhile now. But the folks in Japan are just about to get the game, which for them arrives July 30th. Weekly Famitsu's been known to have pretty tough critiques for a bunch of games. So what did they have to say about Gears of War 2?

The fun, just like the violence, is even more dangerous than the previous game. Every stage in campaign mode has a different objective; the story is fascinating, and you play right through to the end without every feeling the pace slow down. With Horde and other additions to multiplayer, I think I'm going to have yet more sleepless nights ahead of me.

Final Score: 10/10/9/9, for 38 out of 40. In other (unrelated) news, King of Fighters XII was given a paltry 5/5/7/5 for a mere 22 points. How the mighty have fallen!

I haven't seen it, but 38/40 is extremely impressive for a western developer. You guys should be proud!
