I started playing Gears of War last night.  First impressions:

1. Next time I play, I'm making sure I have a Bud in one hand, a titty mag in the other, and set the couch on fire before I start playing.  Then I'll feel just like Marcus "Motherfucking Manly" Fenix.
2. Manly men aren't agile.  They handle like a dump truck filled with wet dirt.
3. Manly men can't get shot much or they die.
4. Gears of War kinda sucks so far.
