I would say changed.
Fundamentally the first game was a game I like to call "Shotgun and Run." There was a semi-glitch/just regular game shit that allowed you to basically run around and focus for a split second in First person mode with the shotgun and unload the full blast of the shotgun in one concentrated spot. With enough practice you could murder anyone with relative ease.
That's when it got tricky because people thought they were pro at GoW for doing that shit. However pros do it with pistol headshots and torque bows. Oh and nade tagging. Honestly I felt untouchable at GoW1.
GoW 2 basically changed how a lot of the weapons worked and shit, but not enough. They made snipers hella broke. I honestly couldn't sit through the horrible match making process to ever play a MP game in the second one.
Really hoping things pan out in GoW3 multi.
Of course they added another old man for me to choose so I'm excited about that. Curious if it's Marcus's father or not. I assume it is because of the radio message at the end of the 2nd game.
In the second game I really enjoyed single player and horde modes, but the MP was ass. I'm hoping in the third game it's all very good. I'm also hoping for 4 player co-op finally. PLEASE! Dibs on old man.
