User Rating: 9.3 | Gears of War X360

By StupidHenchman | Review Date: January 9, 2007

Gears of War, one of the most hyped games this generation. Does it live up to the hype? Yes and No. It has great graphics and awesome sound, addictive multiplayer and phenominal gameplay. But it falls short on the story side, and it doesnt really immerse you into what is going on around you. Here are some high and low points of the game:

The Good:
-Best graphics to date
-Sound is amazing
-Gameplay is awesome
-Online will keep you busy for months
-Characters have somewhat of personality
-Loads of Achievements
-Online Co-op

The Bad:
-The story isnt all there
-Dialougue could be better
-Kind of throws you into a scenario
-Some parts of levels are just plain boring
-Multiplayer is limited to 3 very similar modes.
