This game just doesn't disappoint in any area. The Multiplayer is fresh, fun and enjoyable, unlike Gears of war 2's Multiplayer. Their isn't much lag and most people play the game for fun and don't get serious. The new weapons make the Multiplayer more tactful and harder to survive. As for visuals, character development and etc. The visuals are purely amazing. Everything looks detailed and beautiful. The characters develop even more within this game which makes the story stand out and makes it one of the most well written games I've ever played. The game has a way of making you like every character, friend or foe. The game isn't that difficult. Even on insane you can beat it in about 8 to 10 hours.
The campaign made this game for me, taking the game even further and dropping the Gears in further s**t. I also loved that they kept Carmine alive at the end of the game. Carmine has a lot more attitude and is more heroic than his two brothers who ended up dead. I feel though characters like Carmine and Bernie should have been in it more, but oh well. You start of about two years after the COG flooded the hollow to wipe out the locust. What's left of the COG have now taken up defences on land and on aircraft carriers. But when a new threat dangers the COG and Marcus discovers his father is still alive through a disc Chairman Prescott gives him at the beginning of the game, he sets off with Dom, Baird and Cole to his father. They first have to stop off at Anvil gate to find Hoffman so they can decode the disc and find out exactly where Adam Fenix is being held. On the way to Anvil Gate, Delta squad find Dizzy under fire, they rescue him and he goes with them too Anvil gate. Before they reach Anvil Gate they become under fire from Queen Myrrah. The gas-barge they are on is shot down and they crash land outside Anvil gate. Hoffman greets them and Marcus explains what's going on. After decoding the disc you discover you'll need a submarine so that you can get to Azura, a base which can only be accessed through an underground tunnel in the ocean. Dom explains about the fuelling station in Mercy, Maria's hometown. Marucs, Dom, Sam, Anyas, Jace and Dizzy travel to Mercy to get the fuel for the submarine. Everything goes wrong in Mercy as it turns out their are now lambent humans. Delta is pinned by locust and lambent forces. Dom chooses to sacrifice himself to save them all. Once this part is over they travel to Char to find more fuel as they failed to get any from Mercy. They meet Aaron Griffin who compromises with them and allows them to have fuel if they can get it back to the tower from the opposite tower. Skip forward a bit here. Once they get the submarine repaired and fuelled they travel to Azura, along the way you fight a few hostile fish and a Leviathan. Once inside they realise they'll have to shutdown the maelstrom machine, then allowing other COG units to come and give assistance against the locust. When Marcus finds his dad, Adam Fenix, they run back to the bottom so that Adam can turn the machine on that will destroy the lambent forces and most of locust forces (they are infected by the lambent). A massive fight against Queen Myrrah takes place. At this point Carmine comes in on a helicopter to cover you, he is shot down and assumed to have been killed. Once Myrrah is defeated, the machine powers up and begins its sequence. Marcus learns that Adam is infected with the plague and sees him die right in front of him. Myrrah rises up and begins to talk to Marcus, but he stabs her in the stomach, through anger and wanting revenge. Once everything is finished up, you see all of the Delta squad (Marcus, Anya, Baird, Cole, Sam, Carmine, Jace, Dizzy, etc) all stand at a beach and look out at the ocean. Carmine is alive which is shown in the cut scene. It's a happy ending!
