Online Co-Op: Co-Op Play is available over the internet or an online service like Xbox Live or the PlayStation Network. Each player needs their own system, game, and internet connection.

Couch Co-Op: Couch or Local Co-Op allows players to use one copy of the game with multiple controllers to play co-op. This includes both split screen play and same screen play. Couches are not required.

SplitScreen: The TV is split into multiple screens so each co-op player gets their own viewpoint. The screen could be split vertically or horizontally.

LAN or Systemlink: Co-Op Play is available over a Local Network or System Link Connection. Most likely a router will be required, but you may use a crossover cable in some cases.

Drop-In/Drop-Out: Players can join or leave a cooperative game session at anytime without disrupting an existing player's game.

The Co-Op Experience: Gears of War 1 set the standard for an integrated co-op experience, and #2 looks to raise the bar by having separate difficulties available to each player.
The game will also feature a 5 player co-op mode where players face wave after wave of an increasing number of enemies.

i msut have this...

I too wish to have more than two player campaign but for what is there I enjoyed it all. They do some mixing up with the levels some levels are too similar to older levels and after being 30 minutes away(i think) from finishing RE5 more boss battles would have been nice. The thing is they could just keep releasing expansion packs and I would be happy. I have yet to try the Horde mode which allows more players for some co-op like gameplay but I will soon.

Gears 2 may be able to be criticized for a number of things, but the quality of the co-op experience is not one of them. The campaign is fun and Horde mode is brilliant. This is currently one of the must have co-op games on the 360.
