    GoW 3

    Hi everyone,

    I got Lucky and got the game earlier,so I played trough it today...but let me start with :

    Graphics : AMAZING....but! I might go as far to say that this is the best looking game there is for the 360 and there is a problem.The games still looks great,but I also noticed that some textures arent as sharp as they could be today or often are on the PS3 or PC.Well again I would give 5/5 out of because its not epics fault they made the best looking game there is on the 360!

    Gameplay:Nothing much to say as great as always...alot of different locations make it feel different even though you,of course,do the same the whole time. 4/5 because some different mechanics would have been nice!

    Story: It doesnt happen that often that a game story ends like I want it to end...this one did.No open questions and no stupid cliffhanger for the next game.And Im sure there will be some sort of a new GoW! 4/5 because some scence are overacted and other dialogs are just stupid!

    Multiplayer:Tried it and didnt cared so nothing to say about it,just not my thing.

    Conclusion: A must buy for sure,a great end to a great trilogy and everything I asked for.You liked the games before?Buy it,love it...you didnt this one will not change your mind!

    btw: for any question I preorder at my local games shop and they already had it on saturday why ever so I have played it alot ;)

    Your gamer tag shows you have no achievements in this game so it's not very believable that you've played it,

      Well, I Know What Game I'll Be Playing for the Next Three Years 0

      As a critic, I’ve found the most challenging reviews to write involve games to which I have a particular emotional attachment, and this is certainly the case for the Gears of War franchise. As long as I’ve had an Xbox 360, Gears of War has been a constant and dependable companion. Sure, every once in a while I’d run off and have a fling when a sexy new Call of Duty game came along... but once the thrill wore off, I’d realize all those new frags were meaningless, and soon I’d be stomping Locusts ...

      Single Player Underwhelming *Slight Spoilers 0

      Once upon a time I chainsawed the hearts of a riftworm and rode a rampaging Brumak through Locust-infested caverns. The good memories I have of Gears of War 1 and 2 are those of exciting set pieces while the bad memories I have are any point where they try to flesh out the story and characters. We're all familiar with the commercial where Marcus is running through the destroyed city as Mad World plays in the background. Gears 3 feels like it tries to take that "war is Hell" motif too seriously ...
