Gears has gotten really dull

I am really dissapointed in gears of war.  Now I regret what i gave it in my review.

Gears of war was supposed to be an awesome experience.  But it turns out to be  a short, storyless game that isnt that fun to play again after wards.  So once you play the campaign once or twice.........it just gets boring after that.

Then comes the multiplayer, which has been butchered from the start.

The game is very one sided.  If you are on the host's team, you will definitely win.  Usually once or twice will the other team win the round, but only when you are ahead 7 rounds.

Another thing is that the developers do not want you to play with your friends.  Thats odd, a game that requires teamwork, wants you to play with strangers that you would never talk to............

Me and my friends never play ranked games anymore. 

Then theres the fact that teamwork becomes very stale.  You end up usually doing the same things everytime to win.

The game also gets very unfair at times.  In a game were theres only 8 players maximum, it really should  not lag or give a host advantage.  Some times people will randomly get shot and blown up with a shot gun from far away, or not be able to kill the host.  If you notice, the host is always the guy who never dies(or barely) and kills everyone, even as his team is gone.

This game really had nothing to offer in my opinion.  It had great graphics, but those went to waste seeing as how levels are ground based, meaning you'll never be able to fly over the levels, blow buildings down, or go into any building you want(just the ones that you have too), theyre just there to look at.  If it should have been very open ended in terms of how you get through a level.

I'm still astonished how so many reviewers were so blind.

The game's story is crap.........seriously i mean you can find more story in the strategy guide than in the game itself.

the campaign was short............and it didnt have much too offer but some lousy boss fights(.....corpser....easiest boss ever?)

coop was fun for the first few times.

the multiplayer is forgettable...........it was all the rage a few months ago, but now its just become an equal fight with nothing new to do.  2 new maps.......one that is so small and wasnt meant for team based actions......pass

weapons.......this game had the least amount of weapons, and the some of the weapons they had were utter crap.

you got the hammer of dawn which is a pain to use.  You got the magnum pistol which is really unnecessary.  You got the burst shot which is annoying to use.  You got troika machine gun which is useless.  You got  the boom shot which can only kill people if it hits them right on the body.  You got the pistol which actually is useful.  You got the lancer which is cool, but chainsawing was fun the first time, now its just a nuisance.  You got the shot gun which has lost  its touch since the update.  then the torque bow which is only useful if you actually hit someone, no blast radius what so ever.  Then you got the sniper which is cool.

there..........ten weapons and only like 4 of them are useful.  Can you believe that? only ten weapons and barely any of them are anything we havent seen before..................................

so those 4 weapons(including grenades) are all people use in multiplayer.

this game will die down soon.  Me and my friends are really bored with it..........
