The editors didn't like

  • Playing by yourself is kind of boring
  • “A” button controls can lead to frustration
  • Gameplay
  • Microsoft
  • Unlike other shooters where you can just rush into combat and play Rambo
  • That will only lead to a quick death in Gears. Instead
  • You have to hide behind cover and try to knock off enemies from relative safety. Pretty much every object in the game can be used for cover
  • And you’re goin
  • Deathmatch changes may alienate older Gears fans
  • Short single-player campaign
  • There are a couple of bugs in the Xbox Live play that need to be worked out
  • Campaign is only about 6 hours long on casual
  • The story ends with assurances for GOW 2 and not much else

  • Gameplay, story, graphics, multiplayer
  • Still the same old formula at its core
  • Gears Of War: Judgment represents the pinnacle of the series on Xbox 360. While it might not follow the story of the classic previous games, but it is an exciting one none the less. The clever flashback mechanics complement the Gears universe, which...

  • Abstract:  The first Gears of War gave Microsoft the death-match trifecta (the others being Call of Duty and Halo) that essentially ensured prosperous sales of the Xbox 360 for the lifetime of the console. Unfortunately, while Gears of War 2 features vast improv...

  • Amazing Graphics and audio. Solid gameplay. Great cover system which should be implemented in every shooter. A well rounded game.
  • Short and kinda wierd story. Some frame rate issues. Boss battles are kinda cheap

  • Abstract:  Hype is a terrible, terrible thing… every year without fail there is always at least one game that publishers decide needs the hard-sell and as a result gets carefully marketed by those PR guys and gals with clever ideas to build the hype to an insurmo...

  • Intense gameplay, Stunning visuals, Great animation, Impressive enemy AI, Frightening creatures, The Chainsaw, Coop mode
  • Friendly AI are a bit naff, Lack of multiplayer modes, Some more weapons would have been nice
  • Multi-player On Xbox live Gears of War is every bit as good as I’d expected. The Americans have had a head start getting the game a week earlier than us Europeans and already seem to have perfected the art of the sniper head shot. My first introduct...

  • Abstract:  Showcased way back at E3 2004 as a tech demo for the Unreal 3 engine, Gears of War (GoW) has managed to garner quit a bit of attention for itself. As time passed by, Epic kept throwing tit-bits of the game at us, till E3 2005 this year when they showca...

  • Abstract:  Det ligger en blöt pöl på golvet. Strumporna har blivit alldeles genomsura av saliv och tungan hänger ur mungipan. Samtidigt svider tummarna av utmattning och ögonen är sedan länge alldeles rödsprängda. Solen h...

  Published: 2006-11-16, review by: fz.se

  • Abstract:  Frågan är om något spel fått uppleva mer hype än Gears of War i år och pressen på Epic Games har varit enorm både från media och Microsoft. Cliff Blezsinksi och de andra på företaget tycks dock ha tagit det hela med ro och varför skulle de inte göra de...
