Special Features

 

  • Engaging and disturbing cinematic story: Massively scoped worlds, memorable characters and an epic story line play out like an intense and unsettling Hollywood blockbuster action film.
  • Fire team co-op action: All game modes, levels and scenarios are designed for cooperative fire team play (A.I. or human). For the first time, A.I. teammates are indiscernible from human players. They move intelligently, take orders effectively, and seek cover and defend themselves when necessary. Gamers will experience richer cooperative gameplay than ever, through unique characters that require cooperation to survive. Voice recognition and real-time lip-syncing heighten the immersive experience.
  • Unprecedented visuals in next-generation gaming: Gears of War ushers in the next generation with unprecedented visuals. The Unreal Engine 3 technology pushes high-definition visual designs and brings out the smallest details in the largest battle. Gamers will experience a rich dynamic world with an unprecedented level of detail.
  • Hyper-realistic and intense combat: In Gears of War the battlefield is a lethal place - to foolishly stand out in the open is to die. To survive, gamers can create and take cover using interactive and dynamic environments, suppress the enemy with blindfire, and use their weapons and teammates to outwit and outfight their terrifying enemies.
  • Next-generation Xbox LIVE action: Gears of War will embody the next-generation Xbox LIVE experience and extend it even further. Gamers will be able to experience individualised matchmaking, view player statistics, earn player achievements, customise their games, and build and personalise their gamer profiles.

Review

 

Gears of War thrusts gamers into a deep and harrowing story of humankind's epic battle for survival against the Locust Horde, a nightmarish race of creatures that surface from the bowels of the planet. In this third-person tactical shooter, gamers live and breathe the role of Marcus Fenix. A disgraced former war hero, Marcus seeks personal redemption as he leads his fire team against an onslaught of merciless warrior fiends. Gamers immerse themselves in an experience so intensely emotional and gut-wrenching that playing will be like controlling a blockbuster action movie.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars awe - inspiring game

Okay the second one is out now and is as superb as this one, but this is still one of the greatest games ever created, and is one of my all time favourite games. There is no messing around in this game, no boring slow start, you get thrown straight intop the futuristic war environment and from there i is game on, with hardly a moment to relax in the entire game. With easy controls, great weaponery, and ultra realistic graphics, this is a game you simply have to play before you die.
