The End of an Epic Game.

Gears of War 3 is the finale to the Gears of War trilogy. For those fans of the shooter genre, you can't go wrong with this. The experience earned from the last two games all comes together to make this the best game yet. This game will last you about a week on campaign and a lot longer on the various multiplayer modes. The co-op is great, and what makes this game fun. Up to four players playing the campaign.

This is also one of the first games to start charging a lot for DLC. For this, it's something as long as you don't fall into the trap of doing, you are reasonably safe. A "Season Pass" is available for those who want to prepay for the promised DLC maps and more campaign storylines for a discount later on. Personally...I'll wait.

Gears of War engendered cover based shooting into gaming, has had incredible amounts of gore and visual fidelity and generally been a series that showcases what the Xbox 360 can do. Gears of War 3 does not disappoint, keeping all of these traits of the series alive and well while improving on multiple aspects of the series and all round being the most finely put together game in the series.    This ti...
