Well... the locust.
This game is awesome and you already know it.
If u haven't played it yet then... ur just not a gaming fan.
One word if you haven't played it yet: Chainsaw Gun...

Chainsaw! (8 out of 10)

Gears of War events an entirely new type of game play. Part tactical with it's seamless cover system, and part shoot em' up. The graphics are gorgeous, and game play is great! I enjoyed every second of the single player except the end. Honestly, it came too early. Not did it come too early, but the final boss fight and story conclusion were we...

One of the best Shooters I've played in years... Probably the best shooter ever made (for now). Very intense. The AI of the enemies are very intelligent (especially in "insane" mode) and it can really refine your shooting skills. The gameplay was very unique and original. Not your charge and blast like most shooters. You actually need to plan your ...

this is the game of the year best 3rd person shooter to date. solid storyline, or go online to play co-op. where this game really kicks ass is online team deathmatchs, with new down loadable maps every so often to keep it fresh .....only down side is listening to lil assholes call you shit after you own them, but thats every game. wouldnt it be ...

Gears of AWESOME!!! (10 out of 10)
2007-11-24 16:15:29
Let me put it this way: If mechanics of gameplay are what makes games great, then this is the one game to rule them all. Just the title "Gears" hints that this game is all about mechanics! It's plot is very cool, the weapon variety are practically unsung by any game before it (c'mon, look at the Hammer of Dawn and tell me that that's not ...

Great Game with a lot of replay value for multiplayer. The single story is short but it can be replayed repeatedly. Also the graphics and details in this game are amazing....

Best Game Out There (on Live) (8 out of 10)
2007-11-26 13:34:29
Wow. This is probably the most addicting game I've ever played (aside from Tetris). The third-person/first-person gameplay and the innovative weapons will blow any sci-fi shooter away. The storyline is actually good, but the best part (and the part that most, if not all, players play) is online. Playing online became an everyday thing for me, and t...

Great (9 out of 10)
2007-11-26 23:08:07
Gears of war is a fun game all around. It has an interesting story that keeps you interested and a gameplay style that actually makes you use tactics to some extent. The graphics are amazing. Chainsawing people in half is one of the most fun things. Online play is also really fun. My only complain it that the characters are slow and bulky which tak...

Wow (10 out of 10)
2007-11-27 20:06:03
This game blew me away from the second I put the game on, to the second I beat it (all 4 times). The replay value is high if you go for the achievements. I love everything about this game. I cannot say enough good things about this game... just play it already!...

Does Halo have competition? (9 out of 10)
2007-11-28 12:53:38
Great production values, wonderful action sequences, and great multiplayer. Must-have if you own a 360. Think of it as a third-person Halo. Best use of the Unreal Engine I have seen thus far. Lighting effects are second to none....

9.5/10 (10 out of 10)
2007-12-04 23:46:30
WOW. Epic Games really do their name justice. What an incredible game this turned out to be. It's truly a huge breath of fresh air to the gaming community. This game blends tactics with run 'n' gun so perfectly in fashion. I didn't even think the two could go together hand-in-hand, let alone going together as well as they do in Gears of War. ...

Greatest game ever (10 out of 10)
2007-12-06 18:09:38
One of the greatest games that have been made for a while since Halo 2's release. Theres not much wrong about it, expect that the story is short, as if 5-7 hours is short for you. I play it mostly for mulitplayer even after Halo 3 was released. A must have....

Great game Xbox360 seller even!!! (10 out of 10)
2007-12-08 15:39:51
Im Gonna have to give it a 10 because its the only game of its time that got people back on there Xbox360's after being bored of halo 2. One down side to this game is that It has HOST advantage to it with online play.. The host moves faster then the rest of the players and gives them a great advantage to win rounds no matter how good you are. Its...

7.75/10 (8 out of 10)
2007-12-11 17:49:09
Wow, another FPS using the Unreal Engine...how unique! LOL. But seriously, it's a clean looking game with your average FPS gameplay. The few glitches (call them "Microsofts") are annoying, but otherwise it's a decent enough game. I'd rather just play UT online than GoW online, myself...But what can I say? I never got the hand of the chain...

No Doubt (9 out of 10)

no doubt this is a classic game that will be remembered and will live up to halo and call of duty, from its insane multiplayer, to its short but fascinating campaign...

Lets chop some head off: Gears of War style! (10 out of 10)
2007-12-15 10:13:18
Gears of War came out at the right time. It's a totally fun and addicting game developed by Epic Games. They really knew what they were doing when they were in development for this game. There is this awesome gun known as the Chaingun or also known as the Lancer Assault Rifle. If you're out of ammo with this gun, then go with plan B - which is:...

Great game (10 out of 10)
2007-12-28 14:33:50
The graphics are awesome. The campaign was pretty good. Its even better with a person playing with you. The cover system works very well. I've heard many people complain about only 4v4 online battles but its very addictive and fun. With these small teams you don't have to wait for many people to join and you have to be strategic. Its a must buy for...

BEST GAME (VERRRY CLOSE 2 HALO 3) EVER! (9 out of 10)
2007-12-15 19:30:24
This game is almost perfect. Sometimes the A.I gets annoying like not paying attention. Also people are also complaining about lag & host a lot. But I love the updates and I've got 1160 out of 1250 Gamerscore and I'm a pretty well rounded player 2. Send me a fr if u want 2 play. GT: GSKILLERCOOKIES....

2007-12-16 18:40:52
This was the first game I got for my 360 because I've heard so many great things about it and it lived up to all of those things and then some. The story in this game is epic and it feels as dramatic as any good Hollywood movie. It's presented very well too with amazing graphics and a terrific soundtrack. The ambiance is was very engaging as well a...

WICKED AWESOME!! (10 out of 10)
2007-12-16 22:28:35
The true reason that the XBOX 360 was created, Gears Of War is hands down better than the Halo series in gore factor, plot and weapons. I mean seriously, I wish I could have a gun with a f...ing chainsaw attachment!!...

What is there to say about this game that hasn't already been said? Gears of War is one of the BEST games I have ever played. I wasn't terribly wild about the campaign, but what I felt it lacked there, it totally made up for in online multiplayer. All of the different maps and use of weapons is just amazing. Whether you're playing COG or Locust, yo...

Better Than Halo 3 (10 out of 10)
2008-01-01 13:07:15
This is probably the best game ive played for the 360, its even better than halo, unless u have xbox live, then get that instead of this, multiplayer is good but unless ur good enough to play insane, multiplayer will be really hard. Campain is really good and u can chainsaw people in half, if ur parents dont let u play because of gore dont worry, ...

PERFECT (10 out of 10)
2008-01-05 13:22:09
I feel that this game is the best game out on the self. The graphics are amazing and even better in HD. The weapons in the game are probably the most creative weapons in a game. I like Halo 3 and this puts that to shame....

Sweet gameplay with intense graphics and gore. A must have on the 360. Clever original idea for a game. The story isn't incredibly deep and the game itself is a bit short but all other aspects of the game are great! Pick this up if you like vaporizing ten foot tall Berserkers....

Talk about the pinicle of Xbox performance, Gears is one if i owned it with an Xbox live account, is all i would play for months on end. A chainsaw gun? hells yeah. All around, from gamplay to graphics to story, it's one of the top 360 games to date.
The only real downfall i sometimes see is that sthe story seems kinda short.

Enjoyable Game (8 out of 10)
2008-01-27 12:06:16
The single player of this game is alot of fun, especially with a friend. With that said, the story is missing alot and does not really explain anything. Online matchmaking is missing rankings so there is no way to tell if you are going to play against long time players or newbs. 500 gamerpoints is pretty simple to get on this game, but if you ar...

I have sampled many games throughout my life, and as many of us out there are still searching for it, each one of us gamers has a game, that is the one game we needed to play. The one game that we think sums us up, the one game that we were made to play since the first moment we held a video game controller in our hands. Gears of War is that game f...

The best game ever (10 out of 10)
2008-02-14 16:16:27
This is the best game on any console.
The individual campaign is fun, interactive and is difficult.
However the multiplayer is the BEST part of the game. You can select who who play with, the game and level technically. I LOVE this game
Everyone should have it.

The good:
Campaign is great
Great replay value
Fun stuff like the curb-stomp and lancer chainsaw
Nice mix of basic shoot-'em-up and tactical gameplay
The bad:
Online play isn't fun in comparrison to other great shooter games
Occasional BS deaths that leave the player disgruntled...

Gear of War is a great game. U get to chainsaw people in half, dismember people with grenades, snipe people's heads off, and dont forget that harcore sprint mode...(It's intense!!!) I give this game a 8 out of 10 because the beginning was confusing and the characters were ridiculusly buffed up. It does though have a great story behind it. I woul...

Good, solid gameplay (except when the chainsaw doesn't work for no damn reason). Played through the whole thing co-op which probably made it better. The "story" was random and didn't seem to follow a (cole) train of thought. Got a little tired of the sudden "You have 15 seconds to disarm this bomb that has never even been referenc...

Every console has a killer app and now the 360 has one. Gears of War looks cool, sounds incredible and plays very well. The only real flaw that stops GoW from being a cinematic masterpiece is its single player which lasts about 10 hours long. Even so I can't imagine any Xbox 360 owner who doesn't already have this game. Classics like Gears of War c...

Most overrated game in history. (1 out of 10)

I can not begin to understand what people found appealing about this game, from its shotty game controls to the infuriating cover scheme and terrible cover game and shoot ground work I couldn't understand how people liked this game.
I also notice alot of people bash the story telling of Halo (which I somewhat agree with) but compare...

i enjoyed this game...
this was my first 360 game and i thought it really represented the 360 well...
being an X-box born gamer i think it held up its expectantion for gamers...
while this game doesnt even compare to the Halo trilogy(first game ever)
i think it is one of the better 360 games...
all in all the grap...
