Gear up for war, it's a good fight

Date of Review:  Jun 26, 2008
The Bottom Line: It's like watching a movie but you get to control the hero and shoot the bad guys!
Review: This was a mixed bag. Playing through the game was great but there were some things that were less than stellar.

Install time was horrendous. I took a 10 minute shower nuked a slice of leftover pizza and come back a total of about 20...

Cool story, great graphics, what could go wrong?

Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2009
The Bottom Line: It's a huge improvement on the original released for Xbox 360. If you have the rig to run it, I'd definitely recommend this to you over the console version.
Review: To be frank, I'm not a very big fan of these futuristic shoot 'em ups that have become so common recently; but for some reason, Gears of War for PC stands out from the others if you ask me and although it's not exactly a breakthrough or anything...

Better on XBOX 360

Date of Review:  May 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you want Gears of War but not the XBOX 360, it's worth buying. Just be prepared for the still-unfixed bugs and glitches.
Review: Gears of War...it's one of the ubiquitous XBOX 360 titles alongside Halo 3. Pretty much everyone owns the game, and if they don't, it's likely because they don't own a 360. I was the later -- not really into console gaming, so I was anticipating the...

Excellent Campaign but Lacking in Multiplayer

Date of Review:  Aug 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: Overall, Gears of War is a good solid game with excellent cooperative play. If you have a friend with this game, it is a must buy.
Review: Gears of War takes you on a harsh, gritty experience as a former soldier turned prisoner who was freed in order to fight the Locusts hordes scattered throughout the world.

Overall, the game provides intense action and sequences that will...
