Taken from the GOW forum, pretty much sums up the whole video review w/o the spoilers:

Quote:

Weapons are really satisfying.

Health system is a good design.

Probably one of the best games of the year.

Chainsaw never gets old.

Casual difficulty is probably a little too easy.

Hardcore dificulty feels about right, gets quite hard later on.

Co-op is the way to play the game.

Multiplayer is really exciting.

Presentation is an amazing technical achievment.

Great looking set pieces.

Nicely varied environments.

Soundtrack really fits the action.

Story not very deep though.

Supremely satisfying action game with top notch presentation.

- your teammates aren't very helpful.

- the framerate doesn't hold up during cutscenes.

- the weapons feel better in multiplayer

Closing line:

"Even if you've never owned an action game in your entire life, this is the game to own this holiday season."
