Maybe one day, you will realize how stupid your posts are, but today is not that day. Can you PROVE it? :lol:

Yeah Gunstringer 8.5 LOL

Gunstringer 8.5 > Uncharted 1 8.0 Even random kinect games are better than Sonys flagship franchise lol

>mfw people compare stories b/w gears iterations

Haven't played 3 yet, but there's no possible way the story could be notably worse than Gears 2. Unless they royally botched the gameplay, which I doubt they have based upon my limited exposure to the game, there isn't really anything to complain about.

I thought it was pretty solid. But hey, it's your opinion and even though it stinks you have the right to express it.

Gears 3 is the best in the series in terms of campaign and multiplayer.

Don't know what the deal is. W/e

Because the story, characters, lore all sucks ass. The ending is laughable, and the so called 'emotional death' of a certain character is the funniest thing I've seen in a while. So bad. The MP is pretty good though.

It's ok, the story is stupid but it does have a few fun fights. But it's too short and the only reason people buy it is for the MP and that's it.

I didn't think it was dissapointing, just not very outstanding.

Plagueless
Too short? It's way longer than most shooters. It took me 13 hours to beat on Normal.

Most of us have learned to ignore him.

9.5 on gamespot, 9.1 metascore and 9.2 user score sounds disappointing to you?

Gears 3 is the best in the series and one of the best/most polished games this gen.

Oh, so that's why it was the highest-rated exclusive here last year. Silly Kuraimen, first your PSOne dmg control and now this. :lol:

They're also rated using lower standards.

Oh...i love the standards myth :lol:

Please, explain to all of us why do multiplats like Batman AC and Max Payne 3 have a higher metascore on PS3, despite performing better on 360? Im still waiting for PinnacleGamingP explanation on that phenomenon.

The original was a good game , the 2nd one was pretty good except for the broken multiplayer, but the 3rd installment was complete crap. The story was garbage with a crap ending, i mean if Mass Effect 3 hadn't come along Gears 3 would have had my vote for worst ending ever. Its such a sad thing to see EPic games whoring themelves for MS and producing this garbage.

DrKillByDeath84
wrong gears of war 1 is the most broken. I got killed and i couldnt spawn back because if someone steps over ur body it prevents u from spawning again. these 2 friends together in game kept doing it to me so i couldnt spawn back.

I just recently played through the whole trilogy for the first time and I felt like the series continued to get better and that the 3rd was my favorite. I can't speak for the online since I didn't even try with the first 2, but I like what I have played on 3. I know that the story wasn't great, but I just thought the 3rd was the most fun

i played halo since 2001 dude these kids could not beat me in halo no aim assist. aim assist makes the game random. you cant prove your skill in a game doing 50% of the crosshair aiming for you.

Its so annoying when people act like Halo and Gears are luck based games. Even though its always the same players dominating and the same players going negative. Even the closest shooter to being luck based COD its always the same players going 30-5 and the crappy players going 2-20. People just can't admit they suck at a game and just play for fun it always has to be the games fault.

doesnt matter if mouse is more accurate than a controller. everyone is using a controller on a console so there should be no aim assist handicap. aim assist makes me feel like im using a aimbot on the computer game CHEATING.

I agree, while Gears multiplayer wasn't my forte, i do love Halo's multi, i put alot of hours into 2 and 3 and alot of system link parties with CE and there is some skill involved with Halo, its not just camp and kill like COD.

What's more random? Everyone no aim assist on a controller or everyone with aim assist? aim assist is more random because the player isnt controlling every movement the crosshair makes.

The original was a good game , the 2nd one was pretty good except for the broken multiplayer, but the 3rd installment was complete crap. The story was garbage with a crap ending, i mean if Mass Effect 3 hadn't come along Gears 3 would have had my vote for worst ending ever. Its such a sad thing to see EPic games whoring themelves for MS and producing this garbage.

So why are you complaining? Everybody is using the same controller. Nobody has an unfair advantage you just suck.

because the player doesnt make all the crosshair movement decisions himself the game helps. ITS RANDOM ITS NOT SKILL

In the time that I have spent with the games I never noticed any aim assist, I know what you are talking about because I have seen it in other games but not in gears or halo...as far as I know
