Xbox 360 - Gears of War

Epic Games GEARS OF WAR for the Xbox 360 certainly lives up to the company's name. Presenting an epic battle on another world, GEARS OF WAR runs on the Unreal Engine 3, the game engine designed for the UNREAL series of third-person shooter games, and like all Xbox 360 titles, the game is visually stunning. Players take on the role of soldier Marcus Fenix, who is stationed on the planet Sera along with his friend Dominic. His battalion is desperately trying to stop an alien locust-like horde that seems intent on destroying the human settlements of Sera. As the game progresses, Fenix and the player will learn more about these locusts and about the planet Sera.

AWESOME, best game for 360 so far,

"Gears has gone way far beyond my expectations. The graphics are amazing, at lesat on a good 1080 screen, but still look fine on a normal 480p tv. The gameplay is outstanding, and the cover could not be better. The only thing is i wish you could play with 10-12 instead of only just 8 on muiltplayer. Besides that best game!"

Great Solo/Co-Op Game with Intense Action,
February 5, 2007
By NYERBOY25
from Richmond, VA
"After seeing the previews on the television and internet I decided to purchase the game. My girlfriend and I love to play Co-Op games but are not into sports games and that leaves our options low. Gears of War is an intense game with none stop action, a great story line, and graphics that will make your head spin! We started on the Casual level of difficulty, which is like the Easy setting on other games, and there was still plenty of action for the two of us! The only problem we have with the game is that some of the creatures can climb on the ceiling and with the split screen being horizontal, it makes it some what difficult to see them. Other than that this is a great game for adults. The game is rated M for mature and is not for children. The end of the game also provides a gateway for a sequal which we are both looking forward to seeing!"

"gears of war really brings out the xbox 360 graphics with a war torn battefield and for the player to roam and destroy his enemy to with his chainsaw for a malee weapon this is a must third person shooter."
