Gears of War
This games is out for Xbox 360 everywhere except japan, i do believe. And it's going to kick Halo out of the water. Personally I think it looks better than Halo, there's no stupid flood. Check it out. Click on the one that says "Video Review"

I got it last friday and it's absolutely kickass! Never was the interaction with your surroundings which offers you cover that perfect. Although it's splitscreen when playing the co-op together with a friend, it's SO much fun! In my opinion, halo sucks big time compared to gears of war.
Got a xbox360? Then get. this. game.
btw: I like your avatar. It's from dog soldiers, isn't it? Took my quite by suprise, as I bought a hoodie once from 'born from pain' which featured the song 'hour of the wolf' and had this image printed on the front.

it is fun. the combat style is definatly unique, and refreshing. But it is by far no Halo killer. Multiplayer was too weak. really only has 4v4 deathmatch. Coop is awsome, but the campaign has only so much replayability. if it had a FFA versus mode, or CTF, or SOMETHING other than deathmatch, it would be alot cooler.

only 4 on 4? Just deathmatch? That sucks. Oh well, I bet the story is a blast to play anyway, I heard some people say its a Halo killer, but from what you told me of the multiplayer, I doubt it. They should have atleast added CTF. I love CTF. Thats why I persoanly believe Resistance is better, you can have about 50 people in one room!Timber-WoIf wrote:it is fun. the combat style is definatly unique, and refreshing.

I think the multiplayer is great! There are three different kinds of deathmatch. They could've had a FFA, but I dont think the multiplayer is weak. I love it.
I was playing Halo for the longest time. I think that GoW is almost as good. The campaign in GoW was deffinatly better and more enjoyable to play, and (i believe) the multiplayer is just as enjoyable as Halo, but I guess if you love objective games other than just deathmatch the multiplayer might not appeal to you as much. Idk, depends on the person I guess.
The multiplayer in Halo is better though for more variety in matches to play. And just fun.
I think that even if it isn't a Halo Killer it still is one of the best games I've ever played.
Yes, Xbox live is required to actually enjoy most games. I have XBL and yeah......fun!

No no... screw Halo and screw the flood. I'd rather just fight covenant all the time. The flood don't even fight and you have to kill each one ten times over. I really dislike that game becuase of them, otherwise its a good game.

u dun have to kill all the flood. just blow through. =P
anyway, the most annoying glitches in GoW are
-invulnerability when chainsawing
-cover protecting from explosives, even when both the player and the grenade are ON THE SAME @#%$$% SIDE
-getting stuck on walls so that you cant move.
-not being able to jump, because of nearby cover.
-picking up ammo instread of reviving teamates. (need to prioritize actons)

Yeah that's the only problem, what's the fun if you have to blow through the levels? Besides the flood creep me out and it sounds like they are saying "BRAINS" all the time. I found the best way to beat those levels is have someone play with you, it makes it oooo so much more fun....and less creepy.
I did hear bad things about multiplayer tho in GoW. That's a bummer.
Anyways.... they both look B.A., I just wish i had an xbox 360

Not to mention the single player campaign you can blow off in one day if your a veteran shooter. It seems to me like this game is only worthy for a rental.
