    Definitely not another “kill.switch” clone.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 11, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this Gears of War review helpful

    Pros: graphics, story, gameplay, controls

    Cons: way to dark in some levels, the final boss fells like it is just another fight because there is no real background element to him

    I really thought that this might end up being a “Kill.switch” clone because of the focus on the cover element of the game. It was king of refreshing to see that it wasn’t. As a matter of fact, I found the game to be one that I couldn’t put down. The storyline was solid, except I would have loved to have seen more involvement and background of Raam. The graphics were great, however there were times that I would have loved a little more light. The controls were simple and easy felt natural. The cutsceens and voice acting were top notch. And, there is a high replay value in the game. Single player, campaign co-op via X-Box Live and split-screen, and a very solid multiplayer. This is definitely a must have for X-Box 360 owners.

    Gears of Repate

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 18, 2007 | 0 out of 1 found this Gears of War review helpful

    Pros: Looking Great!!

    Cons: Nothing NEW!

    I won't even waste much time here. The game looks great the Graphics are the best for the 360, which means a little less then PS3 power. Well thats the good. Now the bad, the game was boring. The story was weak and didn't really get me to play more. Infact the game play was old. Nothing in the game was new. Everything was done before and the tuff guy main character didn't help matters. The Sounds were ok but once more I didn't feel like I was in a war. Call of duty did that well. Controls were the basic shooter set up and didn't really do anything to help or hurt the game. Online was fun but wasn't as fast as Unreal or Halo. I would not buy this guy but it seems like most already did, sorry for you. I give it a 3 out of 5 only b/c I felt the graphics were better then a 2.

    Squeaky Gears gets the Grease or Blood

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 30, 2007 | 0 out of 1 found this Gears of War review helpful

    Pros: Graphics top of the line. Smooth game play.

    Cons: Kind of short. Somewhat weak A.I.

    By far one of the best shooters to come out in a long time. Gears of War will give you a challenge that will lead the pack for this genre for years to come. The graphics are almost cinema quality. Controls, while taking used to with the analog stick, are perfect for aiming the weapons to destroy all the critters you will face. And do you get some weapons. The best by far is the Hammer of Dawn. Just think of a gun that can use a nuclear bomb as ammo. While only limted to a few areas destroying enemies to fried crispiness is nothing short of orgasmic. The only glitches in this perfect armor would be the A.I. While at first it can be overwhelming, they are pretty much to figure out with time. The again, they are bugs with only one purpose...KILL KILL KILL. Secondly, with only 5 acts, you can knock out this game in less than 30 hours on casual..maybe 40+ on hardcore. With the multiplayer and online play, you can go around as Locust or humans, each with their own brand of weapons and carnage filled bloodlust you come to expect from such bitter enemies.

    Overall, this is one of the gems for the 360. And if the sequel is anything like this first installment, I don't see why Gears of War 2 will be as a hit as the first one. Get it, play it, LOVE IT!

    Pros: excellent, scarry

    Cons: none

    Anointed by the games media as Microsoft's first "killer app" for its Xbox 360, Epic Games' Gears of War is a futuristic thirdperson shooter emphasizing tactical action over runandgun battles. Players are thrust in a climactic clash between what's left of humankind and a swarming underground race called the Locust Horde. The main protagonist is Marcus Fenix, a once disgraced soldier looking to redeem himself by leading a ragtag squad against the monstrous threat.

    Since the alien army vastly outnumbers the team, players must use the postapocalyptic world to their advantage, such as seeking cover behind dumpsters, pillars, cars, rubble, and other objects. The developer has adapted its awardwinning Unreal technology to create interactive environments with a physicsbased damage system. Players, for instance, can shoot down structures to forge new routes or opportunities to trap the enemy. Up to three squad mates will accompany Fenix in each mission, with basic commands such as "advance," "hold," or "freelance" available to guide them.

    A behindtheshoulder view similar to the one employed in Capcom's Resident Evil 4 is the default perspective in Gears of War. Weapons include an assortment of grenades, pistols, assault rifles, and other longrange blasters, many of which offer a means to engage enemies in melee combat.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 16, 2007

    Pros: Great new play

    Cons: too much dependence on co-op and online play

    This game is just one of those games that you have to own. The many new features are creative and enjoyable. The sprinting system doesnt impress, and the award points rely very heavly on co-op and online play.

    Gears Of War Xbox 360

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 25, 2007 | 1 out of 2 found this Gears of War review helpful

    Pros: Everything! CO-OP offline play

    Cons: I want Gears of War 2

    This movie was totally fun and kept my husband and I entertained for days and we are still playing and going back to improve our score. I do HAVE to say though that the main thing that appealed to us is that it OFFERED CO-OP (Split screen campaign) OFFLINE PLAY!!! If you are a gamer you already know how HARD it is to find games that you and your friend/husband/wife can sit down and play split screen campaign without having to log on to cyber world.I really wish that more game developers would HEAR OUR PROTEST!! Tom Clancy games used to offer the campaign co-op split screen offline play but its latest game failed us there and we didn't bite.
    Thank you GOW for offering this option PLEASE, PLEASE make part 2 with the same option!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 9, 2007

    Pros: Everything

    Cons: Where is the sequal, Im ready.

    Best game I have ever played hands down. There are a few games in a close running. MGS and Halo. This takes the crown. Not for people that are squeemish. Just an all around good game.
