Pros: deep gameplay, great online multiplayer, tremendous graphics and sound
Cons: story could use more depth, could use some more diverse multiplayer options

Gears of War is the title to have if you own an Xbox 360 this Christmas. Still one wonders whether this title is just a placeholder until Halo 3 comes out. Ironically this would be similar to a situation last generation where Epic released a surprisingly ...

Cons: single-player campaign a touch repetitive

It's been quite a long time since a brand new game series has started with this level of ballyhooing – yes, not even the original Halo had the sort of buzz and hype that Gears of War managed in the 18 months from its revealing at E3 ...

With the excitement and major hype surrounding the release of Gears of War 2, the few people left that hadn't played its 2006 Game of the Year predecessor were left wondering what was so great about it. A lot along the lines of the success that ...

Here it is, the long awaited Gears of War for the Xbox 360. I'll be honest, I wasn't going crazy about this game before it was released, and then I jumped on the bandwagon when I saw some of reviews this bad boy was getting. Gears of War is the ...

Pros: VIOLENCE, GORE, BLOOD Chainsaws as bayonets !!!
Cons: some control issues. aliens are not so alien

Cons: Somewhat laggy online play, lacking story, somewhat stereotypical

Gears came out quite a while ago and by now it has came and gone. But for those who haven't picked up Gears by now it is definetly worth a play through despite its age. The experience from Gears feels unique in its own and deserves a play through even ...

Pros: The meat, potatoes, side-dish and the dessert!
Cons: Story needs some explaining, single campaign is short, no replay value.

I do not want to sound like a prick. I do not want to sound like a bastard. But I must tell you the truth. So here it goes: Gears Of War is fun as hell and whoever that doesn't have it...should well, let's say you'll be missing out on a lot! Gears Of War ...

Pros: Stunning visuals and intense gun fights.
Cons: Sometimes I take cover when I didn't want to.

Microsoft's Xbox 360 was all the rage in the holiday 2005 season and gamers everywhere were going nuts for the then new console. It wasn't uncommon for people to pay over thousand bucks for it while their kids didn't eat. I'm still mad at my dad. Anyway ...

Cons: Offline Multiplayer, A bit short

Billed as the Xbox 360‘s H alo, Gears Of War was a game I have to confess to buying almost-blind. I’d seen the TV ads, but hadn’t really read up on the title before opting to add it to my ...

Pros: Amazing visuals, Incredible "Duck and cover" mechanic
Cons: Squad A.I can be dim

Epic and Microsoft bring the highly anticipated Gears of War to the X-box 360. Fortunately the end result is a stellar white-knuckle action game that delivers all of it's promises and much more. Gears of War revolves around the overly brawny squad ...

Cons: The mutiplayer is limiting but could be changed through updates.

Every so often the gaming world gets a truly amazing title. The big names like Halo, Zelda, and Metal Gear Solid. Well those were some of the standouts from the last generation of gaming consoles but now we are moving into the next generation. The Xbox ...

Cons: Poor squad AI, lame story, minor control issues

Microsoft has been banking on Gears of War for a long time now. This was suppost to be the game that took the wind out of Sony's sail when the PS3 launched. This is the game that was going to show the true power of the Xbox 360. This is the game that for ...

Pros: Innovative gameplay, awesome graphics, great replay value.
Cons: Occasionally clunky controls, not much plot.

Well, I'd say that title pretty well sums it up, so that's all for my review. Thanks for reading. Just kidding. After that powerhouse opening, let's get into Gears of War. I've had my 360 for a while now, and quite frankly, it hasn't gotten much ...

Pros: Graphics, Gameplay, Multiplayer, Graphics, Storyline, Graphics, Finishing Moves (extreme content), Graphics...
Cons: Extreme content may turn off some. Would like to see 4 player co-op.
