Considering how horrible the Gears 2 matchmaking service is right now and all the complaints it is receiving I don't think it will be at the top for very long.

Agreed. I quit trying the matchmaking until they get a fix for it.

I was playing matchmaking with 2-3 friends yesterday, and it was surprisingly fast at finding other players. 2 days ago it was slow as hell, but I was able to get in matches 100% percent of the time yesterday...weird

Agreed. I wouldn't be surprised to see Left4Dead ahead of Gears.

Maybe when epic sees the how fast the game drops from the top of the charts they'll fix the multiplayer.

I still can't get over them making me wait 30 minutes to play a game then telling me which game type I'm gonna play. Bunch of fucking jackasses.

Isn't America sue-happy? One of you Americans find a way to sue them for this crappy multiplayer experience :p.

Hopefully Left 4 Dead will take this crown...it's simply an amazing experience and insane fun!

Not surprising at all. It very much sits at the top. Visit our blog at http://1337pwnblog.blogspot.com

What's in four months and three days?

Also I thought it was funny how Gears 1 took the number 10 spot!

At first I was surprised seeing that COD4 was still above CODWOW... but when i think about it COD4 is f****G awesome. I have been killing Fable 2 lately but I miss me some COD4

I agree, I hope L4D takes the top spot and kicks GOW off, the matchmaking is just horrible.

Having played gears of war 1 from 06-08 i can say I've not played gears 2 online since the week of it's launch.

Hopefully epic patch it to shit cause right now it's trash, that #1 spot wont last more than a month unless they fix a lot.

Wow. Nobody saw that coming. I must admit to GoW2 sucking up a good chunk of my life lately... but there is room for more than one top dog... I'm sure. I sure miss the vehicles of Halo 3 and may be returning soon. Hopefully all the teamkilling, quitting, loud mouthed jackasses have moved onto something else! Halo 4 better have bots!!! Anyone try UT3? How come that never made the top 10?

Honestly with how long matchmaking takes and how terribly glitchy Gears 2 is I wouldnt be surprised if it'll be knocked down to #3 after a week or two.

Epic must really suck at testing their games.

As a huge fan of the gears franchise, and still loving Gears 2 for its unprecedented presentation, Gears 2 won't stay long as #1. Give it a month, it'll rank down.

Unless Epic fixes the demoralizing lag, broken gameplay and matchmaking.

It probably counts as a lot of people playing when everyone is just sitting in front of their f'n screens with the "remote parties restarted the matchmaking process"

The original gears had the crappiest lobby system BS (I don't think I ever was able to play a decent balanced game of 4on4), but this is ridiculous. . .

Basically i've been playing horde, at least with horde I get a game in 5-10. When your controller powers down while your waiting for a game you know it is BS
