[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"] This is a random question, but where are you from?FrozenLiquid

I'll inbox ye.

What made you think of that question btw? Now I'm curious!

You and I have a similar taste in games, it seems.

Ah yes, I have noticed this. I currently live in New Zealand if that has any relation to the similarity.

Just got your inbox. Wow what a coincidence! Are you based in Auckland?

[QUOTE="MercenaryMafia"][QUOTE="almasdeathchild"]go cry some more QQ if you were any good at the game you would not be b!tching about the sawed off and actually adapt against it

Ninja-Hippo

Lol, u mad? The weapon is cheap. I'd rather have gnashers only any day.

How is it cheap if everyone can spawn with it?

The sawed-off isn't OP. It's at a decent rating right now after the updates. The Gnasher is the best weapon in the game by far. Best all around weapon. I don't see many people use the sawed-off as much as when the game launched (at launch, the sawed-off was a MESS!). Now people are getting smart and playing with Gnasher/Retro. Probably the best combo.

Yes most games have bad dialogue, but then again, most games didn't have the budget that Gears had. Maybe if they had hired a good writer, it wouldn't have sucked as bad? The gameplay can be the best thing ever, but when the story in a mode that centers around it sucks so bad, it's just not a good game. Gears is not a good series. Unless you have bad taste or low standards. 001011000101101

It all comes down to the game's excellent art direction and technical visuals, the game is just so damn solid it's practically impossible not to like. Even if the story is crap (everyone knows the main concern of a gamer is not the story).

Gears 3 > Gears 1 > trash > Gears 2. Fact!. Story and endings of all three games were equally good/bad.

Do reviews and sales support the view Gears 3 is boring? If not, then the problem is with the individual player's tastes and not the game.

It can't be any worse than that interactive movie Uncharted 3! After nearly 2 years, Vanquish is still the king baby.

I thought it was better than the first two. If anything the story in the first one is very disjointed. The MP aspect was much improved in GoW 3. But it's been a while since I played it.
