November 7, 200718 yr From Gamespot.com: Released near the end of the Xbox 360's first year on the market, Gears of War was a defining moment for Microsoft's console. Its gameplay relied heavily on forcing you to take cover to avoid enemy shots, which meant that it required a healthy dose of patience as well as a steady trigger finger. It then beat that mechanic into your head over the course of its quality story mode, while also letting you team up with a friend online to take on the nefarious Locust forces together. Of course, it also had an amazing team-based multiplayer mode in which up to eight shooters could connect and go at it in a variety of different modes. Over time, more multiplayer maps and modes were added to the collection via the Xbox 360's download service. All of that great stuff is now available on the PC, on which the game looks better than it ever did on the Xbox 360, and without sacrificing anything in the process. If you've never played Gears of War, or if you just haven't played it in a while, do yourself a favor and try this new version of the game. http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/gearsofwar/index.html (Note: There are currently only 6 player reviews about it :P ) Some Pictures: I was stunned by the reviews I saw for the Xbox360, I really want to play this game. Does anyone have/played it already? [http://woopidoo2.deviantart.com][Tip.it Moderator from Dec 10, 2006 to 03 Sep, 2008]
November 7, 200718 yr It's not going to sell well, mostly due to the timing (COD4, Assassin's Creed, Crysis all within a week or so...As well as a slew of other games). I'll buy it when it's $9.99.
November 7, 200718 yr massively overated +1 It has some great stuff to it...but then again....blech Listen to the mighty words of Bloodredsword. Tip it MGC Xbox live leader board!
