Gears of War

geneticgamer's Gears of War (Limited Collector's Edition) (Xbox 360) review

A COVER SYSTEM THAT WILL BE COPIED FOR YEARS TO COME

Gears of WAR in a third person shooting game that masters almost every aspect of what is expected from shooting games. The way this is done is through a flawless cover system and a paint ball feel to the game. Gears of War has multiple weapons that are balanced out evenly that make the game fair. Gears of War has both COOP and Multi player which vary significantly. The Coop mode can be played as with one player or you can choose to team up with a buddy to kill some locust. The Coop seems short but their the difficulty levels will keep you playing. The multi player is at its best when playing over xbox live but be aware as their are constant trash talkers and people who leave early in the game. Over the game is excellent and should be purchased by anyone who owns an xbox360.

When in the heart of battle you are able to feel the breath of your opponent as he r...

It's my personal opinion that games just don't have the same magic as they used to.  It could be that we're breaching too close to reality with the looks, and realism effects and character models based on people we recognise might be taking things a little too far.  Many games, particularly shooters have become a little tired and predictable.  I'm very glad to say that I don't find this to be the case with Gears of War.  Made by the Unreal Tournament team, there was never a chance I wouldn't pla...
