I think I came a littel when I saw the ad on TV

G3N3R4L · #4 (**permalink**) Nov 08, 06

the rumor is there is also a movie about this coming out.

it has to be better than doom.

all day at work i've been hearing the sounds of Gears of War from my desk.

Defintiely looks good at least.

If there is a movie, Ill be all over that one for sure. But your right, Id be worried about it turning into another Doom :(

This game is the hotness.... so freaking good.

It takes a bit to really get it but once you've got the controls down it's amazing. Looks great, plays well, decent story (so far at least). If you've got a 360 and you like games this is a no brainer.

^^ thats just what i wanted to hear.

i've heard the co-op portion is the hotness. can't freakin wait.

Cdn_Brdr · #9 (**permalink**) Nov 09, 06

co-op you say??? haha

Yeah man... no lag and way more fun than playing on your own!

I couldn't put the controller down a few days ago while playing. It's pretty killer.

G3N3R4L · #12 (**permalink**) Nov 17, 06

woooo!! picking up this game today in the future shop bundle.. cant wait!!!!

There is no movie. It wasnt a rumor that there might be a rumor. There was just an article on the whole video games - movie thing going on and that this game would likely be made into a movie. Splinter Cell movie is however confirmed.

This game is fucking sick, enjoy ing it quite a bit. Just bought the Gear OF War crate for transporting my xbox360 around. Thing looks dope

where did you pick it up from?

**MC Hammered** · #15 (**permalink**) Nov 21, 06

Everytime I see the commercial for this game I wish they would make a movie like that.

I think a collection of short movies a la Animatrix would be sick.

G3N3R4L · #16 (**permalink**) Nov 21, 06

i love the song in the trailer..

mad world.. its on the donnie darko soundtrack.... GREAT song.

wow.

this game was a huge disappointment. the graphics were the only good thing about it. the story line was pretty weak. your movements are way too limited. the game is really short. and last but not least the last level enemy was too easy to kill.

all in all if you want a game that sucks, but looks good, this is the game for you.

Cdn_Brdr · #18 (**permalink**) Nov 24, 06

^Did you play on insane? I bet not.

Also.... the replay value is there in the multiplayer but you don't seem to dig that aspect. As for movements... how are they limited? It's not meant to be a run and gun style game. It's take cover and strategize.... anyone can run through an area with guns blazing. This makes you think more about where you want to go/what you want to do.

Tim, the bottom line here is that your review is wrong and is pretty much balls ;)

no, i didn't play it on insane because i already know what that'll be like. the same game just a lot harder. i was pretty drunk when i made that post, so it made sense to me at the Time, but now that i read it again i see that i failed to say what i meant about it being limited. when i said that it was limited i meant that it was narrow. all the Time you knew exactly where to go...basically straight ahead. it seemed as though the only thing that this game really had to offer (other than graphics, but, hey, it's on the 360 graphics should be a given) was that whole "you can take cover!" option. and that's not really something that should be the main aspect of the game. all in all i had fun playing it but now that i've finished it i have no real urge to go and pick the game up again.

WE CAN STILL BE FRIENDS

I think you two should hug this out.

Cdn_Brdr · #22 (**permalink**) Nov 24, 06

Tim and I enjoy screaming for blood and revenge but we draw the line at hugging shit out
