Iv'e been playing thid game since it came out, and latley it seems even when I have the most kills, or my team is winning I am just board. I guess it was time, I need a new game. I had rainbow 6 but that wasnt my style. Now Ill be waiting just like the cows.

I can understand that. My problem was that I wasn't on the bandwagon early enough with the online, so now whenever I join a game I am completely noobish and get owned most of the time and that is discouraging. I also don't find the online particularly engaging. I prefer Rainbow 6 a lot more.

I still love it, but then again, I play a lot of player matches with friends.  I don't play much ranked.

Yes, the time of Gears of War is done. Time to crown a new champ.

Still play it every day. I just worried that people won't play this game anymore when Halo 3 comes out. Cause I know I will still want to play it.

I'm actually having more fun with the Lost Planet Online Battle mode. I still like Gears but yeah, the novelty has gone down the drain that's for sure.

I didnt play it much online, though friends and I got through the SP on insane. IMO - The Multiplayer is really limited by a few things. Off the top of my head:

1-No Respawning Deathmatches ( Halo 2 had it flaws and all, but one of the greatest moments in that game is being tied up 49-49 in a TDM and screaming at the TV if you won or lost that last kill. In GOW, sitting on the sidelines just isn't that much fun.

2-No Carrying over Game Lobbies? Really? It's kind of a waste to go back to the menu screen after every single game.

3-Why can't I play ranked matches with my friends? What's the point in making friends on xbl if I can't play with them in my games anyway?

This is just my opinion, but I really think this is why I already traded the game in. Once the WOW! factor is gone, and the SP is beaten, the MP just isn't deep enough to hold my interest. Anyone agree or disagree?

Like the designers of Gears and even Jeff of Gamespot here said; 'You have no idea what Gears is about'.

I get the feeling allot of people here just played Gears because it was hyped. Only so many people play that game because they really like how the game is. And you know it's true. I can give answers to all you're questions in a flash.

1. The game would lose the tactical fast pace purpose it has.
2. It's about being with random people and start playing as a team real fast, with the best teamwork you can come up with.
3. See number 2. Also, Player Matches.

If you don't like how Gears is played, then don't play it. This is how Gears is. If you don't like it why get the game and start complaining about it?

It's just like people complaining about you using every single weapon. 'Stop chainsawing! Stop using the pistol! Stop using the Torque Bow! Boomshot is so cheap! Beat down w*ore!' etc. etc.

If you don't like the things in the game or how the game is played, then don't play it. It's real easy.

Actually, it's Gears. Epic uses that when they shorten the title.

I never said I dont like the game. And I dont need your advise on what to play and what not to play. And I didnt race out to buy the game like everyone else, I got a copy of it from Microsoft's expertzone. I paid 5 bucks for the game. And I'm pretty sure I know what the game is about, despite what you, Jeff from Gamespot (oooooo) or the dev team may think or say. All I was trying to say was that the game isn't as deep as other multiplayer games. As a gamer, I'd rather play with my friends, rather than random people, and I don't want or need my games to make that decision for me. I get the point, I get the logic behind it. I just felt that Epic was limiting the gameplay options by doing this. Also, the game is only so fast paced when it's 4 on 4. When it becomes 4 on 1 or 1 on 1, those left sitting on the sidelines are bored out of their skulls. You don't have to agree with my opinion, but you should at least respect it enough to not insult me. I get the point of the game, I'm not an idiot. I'm saying I don't like the point of the game. It gets old too quick for something as good as this game, because the gameplay itself is top notch.

I haven't been playing it as much since I got Rainbow Six. I'm still up for the online co-op on insane with a buddy from time to time, but Gears multiplayer matches don't seem to be as fun as other games.

I don't think I insulted you. If so, apologies. I just had the impression you never liked the game to begin with like allot of people did. But you can play with you're friends online though.
