I hear and respect your points.

But I just want to say, "meh" to the Berserker. The first two in Gears 1 were indeed fun. Granted, I saw the second one coming a mile away, but both were fun and a bit of a challenge to take down. The third seemed like a pointless hurdle that the level could have done without.

One or two Berserkers in Gears 2 might have been fun, but frankly, I could have cared less either way.

I can also kinda see the grub health argument, though some did in fact wear more armor, which logically would make them harder to kill (unless, of course, you've got your shotgun in his face and pull the trigger; THAT oughta do it for pretty much everything 'cept the big ones, who really should need no more than half a clip).

It was a lot more interesting fighting the Beserker than it was fighting those flying creatures (forgetting the name) or shooting a Brumak with a gatling gun... for the 20th time.

Though the Corpser battle was a complete joke.

I just wish they had put the Beserker in an MP game mode. Would've been fun to have to fight the enemy team and ALSO avoid that blind bitch.

Ah, right, the Brumaks. Not nearly as threatening as I'd've thought. But really, that's because they didn't have as much health as they needed, and you were ALWAYS given a weapon capable of dropping one with not an ounce of skill beyond "point the gun at it".

People Can Fly made a much better Brumak fight in the first Gears on PC.

Even though it was the typical "Find easy to figure out weak spot and then shoot him dead" it was better than an on rail segment.

i havn't beat gears 1 yet so i like gears 2 more and for 2 i think chainsawing someone is way better than 1. for gears 2 there's a lot more good weapens to choose from. so for now i think gears 2 is better.(for now at least)

Gears 1 was great.
Gears 2 was great.

Gears 2 has some multiplayer issues though. One of those being the matchmaking system where you can get stuck with some europeans and you can't leave unless you turn off your x-box or go back to the dashboard.

Also, the hammerburst is straight up broken. It downs extremely quickly, and if you're the host you can literally down 4 guys on 1 clip, even if they aren't already being shot at. The lancer needs a strength buff, an accuracy buff and a recoil nerf(as in, more recoil).
