Active Reload is a gameplay concept in which the player can actively decrease the load time of a weapon by timing a button press.
A glitch used in Gears of War that allows the player to 'roady run' constantly while still being allowed to fire every gun. Pressing the A or B button will cancel the glitch however.
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.
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.
A spider like enemy filled with fatal imulsion that tries to throw its self at you.
Being able to fire bullets in quick succession. In earlier video games, often acquired as a power-up.
Many games feature a story which involves saving the world and its inhabitants, often single handedly.
The Stranded are the humans that couldn't get to the Jacinto Plateau during Emergence Day and were left behind. They are considered thieves by the COGs due to their habit of stealing equipment off dead bodies, and they see the COG as "facist pigs" for leaving them behind.
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.
