Multi-player campaign. Good story. Xbox Live. Great graphics. Great weapons. Multiple difficulties, yet not impossible.


Bad Points

Quite short. Tough at times. Too many cinematics. Not good team artificial intelligence.


General Comments

Gears of War is a brilliant action packed adventure in which you annihilate grubs, wretches and behemoths with explosives, machine guns, chainsaws and satellite laser beams. The graphics of the aliens are astonishing and the blood and guts spill out in a spectacular mess. The camera modes are really good and when the chainsaw is used, the ultimate camera mode is initiated. GoW is the best 360 game yet and will be the main rival with the highly acclaimed Halo 3. GoW has the amazing abilities of blind firing and taking cover while still having visual on the target. GoW's storyline may be short and the levels sometimes rather pointless but the overall build up to the end level is great and the cinematics are usually very, very gory. The voices and interactions of the characters are very realistic if not too optimistic during a war. The weapons used contains machine guns, shotguns, exploding arrows and the laser weapon known as "The Hammer Of Dawn" that targets satellite beams that annihilate all - Including yourself! Overall Gears of War is a MUST BUY and a game that will cause ultimate joy and bloodthirst if not forever.
