Active Reload is a gameplay concept in which the player can actively decrease the load time of a weapon by timing a button press.
The Coalition of Ordered Governments (COG) is the current and only form of government left on the planet Sera in Gears Of War. You play as Marcus Fenix, a soldier for the COG fighting to defend Sera from the invading Locust forces that are coming from underground.
Emergence Day is the day when the Locust Horde emerged from the underground caverns of the planet Sera and launched a full-scale attack on its residents. Around 1/4 of the human population was eradicated within the first 24 hours.
Some games feature a system where a character near death can be dazed into a 'down but not out' state; while their allies can often revive them if they reach the downed character quickly enough, their enemies can perform special, frequently gruesome, execution attacks against such characters.
Kill Stealing involves a player killing another player's target in order to gain his or her "prize". These include loot, experience points, a point score, etc.
The Locust Horde are the main enemies in Gears of War with multiple types to crush the COG military. It is unknown whether the Locust are truly indigenous to Sera, but it is known that they will die for control of Sera.
Persistent bullet holes allows players to shoot holes into walls without them disappearing right away. This feature added realism to first person shooters, as well as the ability to draw smiley faces.
Strategic dismemberment allows players to separate an enemy's limbs from its body without killing it, disabling limb-specific functions.
Developed by Epic Games, Unreal Engine 3 is the third generation of the Unreal engine, and is base for numerous games, such as Unreal Tournament 3, Gears of War and Roboblitz.
War is a series of organized conflicts carried on by force of arms between two or more nations or groups. Whether it never changes or has already changed is up for debate.
