Gears of War Review

[SLHAndDHI]

i love when he says there is only that basic mode and then there kill the leader wtf

[MrThedorkknight]

Why is the quality thingamajig a COG?

[719AO]

Gears of War 1,2,3(ALL THE DLC FOR EACH GAME INCLUDED) the best games ever ON THE 360 nuff said. Halo ruined itself with ODST,and Wars, and then Bungie quit Halo worst thing ever.

[MiiNDLeSSMight]

@719AO its gears 1/2 and all dlc dumbass

[Schlidawg]

Could you have a more biased review?

[TheZenion]

campaign is short...lol. look at the games these days. call of duty, resident evil 5, etc.

[Haloid98867]

I understand that this is a fun game, but does this guy really need to just suck dick for it? He doesn't even mention the really annoying parts like the Kryll sequences

[Svm10cool10]

the epicness of this epicness is just epic!

[25hockeyfreak]

This made me remember a time in war zone where it was one vs. Three all three at the same time and I won

[LegitXbox]

@25hockeyfreak and you were alone?? that happended to some ai's in multiplayer in gears 2 the last cog soldier vs 4 locust who wins? the dumb cog guy!!

[WalkersWonderland]

i love playing as the beserker in gears 3 :)

[LD1E60]

First time I played this game when it came out, first game I got for my 360 BTW... AWESOME

I remember all the fun I got with ti and how amazed I was with the graphics and the videos and mostly the awesome gameplay

Now after beating Gears 2 and 3 I went back to played this one... and I just see it too glitchy, and with poor quality videos at some points... Im disappointed, not with the game cuz the gameplay still awesome and thats what matter but with me and how graphic interested Ive become

[TheZenion]

@LD1E60 yeah, i got the same problem with gta san andreas. its probably one of the best games of all time imo, but i cant play it for more than a half hour, because i get fed up by the graphics... :(

[MODERNGAMES2]

Cover system, Rainbow Six Vegas had it first

[TheZenion]

@MODERNGAMES2 gears 1 was released 8 days before vegas ;) and both games are great btw

[MODERNGAMES2]

@TheZenion Well yeah

But Gears of War 2 and 3 is for Xbox360 only right?

I played the first one on pc

What about GoW 2 and 3, will they be released on pc???

[shotpointblank7]

@whiteyalcade because all these faggots prob started out on gears 2 or gears 3 and never started with gears 1 like they should have cause there fuckin gay and dick rode shitty gears 2(worst gears ever id rather play viva pinata than that gay shit)

[fandhstudios]

The campaign is short there's about 50 chapters, my makes played threw it all and it is not short. He must have done what most do and that is go threw half of it and think that's it.

[rainbowpoopman]

2:14 fucking retard...

[HombreHonest]

How good is the Gears of War series, cause it looks pretty interesting from what I've seen. :)

[Zubarev69]

@HombreHonest Gears of War is fun, it's far from a mindless shooter but it doesn't reach that level of "epicness". It's still very fun none the less. The characters have more persona than you would expect.

[bliglum]

@HombreHonest It's pretty much the best exclusive game on 360.. And one of the best 3rd person shooters out there! And I'm more of a ps3 guy ; )

[whiteyAlcade]

how come the first game in a series gets like a 100,000 views of the review in 2 or 3 years but when the sequal or third game in the epic series gets like 400,000 views in 2 or 3 MONTHS?

[nagroMtm]

@potatopac there are at least 4 hammers in that mission, u didn't have to restart

[darbusmaximus]

The reason to buy a 360.

[Dreamewalker]

Man...this is what Resident Evil 5 should've been...

[IvyNirvana]

@Dreamewalker I know..

[potatopac]

Recently got this game and loving it.

but there are some serious problems.

1 the save system is messed up and doesn't work.

2 I found myself at a bit when you have to get a weapon called the hammer of dawn. you needed that weapon to kill a boss. so i swapped my shotgun for it. then I went back to pick up my shotgun again and no longer had the dawn,The boss showed up again but i no longer had the right weapon, so I went back to get it. but the doors closed behing me so I had to restart the game!

[joeldunsdon]

Such a fantastic game, played this through 4 times. man I love it

[brup123]

Classic curb stomp <3

[LunarRizing]

Hand down. The best Gears campaign ever. Part 3 may have the best multiplayer, but the atmosphere and art direction in the singleplayer is unparalleled, even the sequels. I mean, who didn't shit themselves when they first saw that Berserker?

[SLHAndDHI]

@LunarRizing i dident just trollin but your right

[thanck789]

@LunarRizing I have notthing to say. You read my mind 0.0

[jackvgeoff]

this came out in 2009 gears 2 review came out in 2008 why?! someone tell me thats watching this now!

[MegaSlypig]

Atmosphere, inovative wepons, cool enemies, amazing sound track.... Ahh I love this game.

[universe112]

I forgot why I stopped Gears of War #1. I played it the other day and then I remembered, Dom always dies and then I die trying to save his stupid ass. I can never beat the 3rd or 4th level because my squad dies contently. It's really frustrating.

[87teehee]

next gears of war........... pendulum wars!!

[kemando12]

Great... Now I have to go back and play through Gears 1 and 2 again.

[NickMcQueenxX]

The Gears Franchise Would Be The Only Reason Why I Would Switch To Xbox..

[SuperDouchebag12345]

A next gen prequel would be really fucking rad. On Unreal 4 and more disc capacity paired with updated graphics, holy shitballs.

[MitchC92]

this is the game that made me love gaming

[gamerGUY117NZ]

@g2020 trust me it gets way better

[dayankroche1]

imagine a gears of war movie with arnold swachenagger and sylvestor stallone haha

[aseticelite]

lol if gears of war were to be a new game this year .... like the orginal one... I would still give it an 8.6 for great story, nice graphics and atmosphere , and fair enough multiplayer.

[TheGreatMetallica]

Getting an xbox so I can play this!!

[savage2833]

THIS AND THE GTA 4 REVIEW ARE THE BEST REVIEWS EVERY MADE!

[savage2833]

the night time level was one of most classic levels every made the music.... bum bum bum bum bum those little killers flying around it was just unbelievable

[strong1423]

Gears of War still have the best campaign of all Gears because of dark atmosphere , scary moment ( act 3 ) and taticcal gameplay

[SpankeyLuvinIt]

Wouldn't mind Epic making a prequal and a movie then just completely killing off the series.

[Hakudo2VisualKei]

such memories, this game had like RIDICULOUSLY good graphics for something 2006. And I love how it reminds me of Quake, Doom, and especially Unreal Tournament

[AJspartan]

Thire review was uploaded after their gears 2 review and recorded before Halo 3, Wow.

[yutubeog]

Should i keep this game?

Someone gave me this game completely brand new, but i've never been into Gears, never played a Gears game, never wanted to. I would much rather send it back for a game i really do want this year.

If i take off the wrapping, will i LOVE this game? Should i send it back for a game that i am actually excited for?

[EvanCola]

@yutubeog You'll only get 10$

[EvanCola]

@yutubeog You'll only get 10$

[A7xMetalMulisha]

@yutubeog youll love it i have all the gears and none disappoint :) and you will get a small amont of money if you send it back.

[unchartedfan818]

DOM! NOOO!

[russeljohnson2]

@mrawesome211 Gears movie is the dumbest thing I ever heard. They wouldn't be able to capture the atmosphere in a movie it just wouldnt work.

[Medafets]

I don't know why but I didn't like this game at all.

[DJANt12341]

gears of war is the best game i have EVER played..(gears 1 2 and 3)

[DJANt12341]

gears of war is the best game i have EVER played..(gears 1 2 and 3

[TheReggaeMortis]

Bro you're such a good reviewer you should do reviews for thebestgamers

[gilgamesh310]

You know, I have yet to understand what is so great about the act of cover shooting in a game. It's a freedom and therefore fun sapping mechanism. I don't know why Gears of War is so praised for pioneering it. The most fun parts of Gears 2 and 3 are the parts where you don't use cover.

[FragileDogg]

I wish they continued PC and XBOX..I only have a PC :/

[uchihatheitachi]

@FragileDogg Too bad.

[TheeAppleMann]

Why am i watching this when gears 3 is out?

[PTGKChrisHD]

I Bought This Game The Same Day Gears of War 3 Came Out Because I Never Played The Series Before :-)

I Finally Beat Gears of War (2006) For The First Time Last Thursday

Gears of War (2006) is TIGHT!

[MrReuben13]

@TheeAppleMann I'm watching it 'cos I'm very new to the franchise. I played a bit of Horde on 3 yesterday.

[Shadowultd]

@TheeAppleMann The same reason the rest of us are. To bring back some awesome memories

[HEYWOODxJaBLOWME]

best one hands down. they r all great, but this is really the one people will remember.

[OMGLAZARS]

@tavi921 in your opinion

[xIxInfamousxIx]

That beserker still scares the shit out of me :L

[tavi921]

if this weren't an xbox exclusive, what would be the point of owning one? you should only get an xbox for this game, and this game alone, the others suck, along with the platform

[Royboy94]

@tavi921 It's for PC now too.

[tavi921]

@Royboy94 well, the only reason for owning an xbox just vanished :)))

[Royboy94]

@tavi921 Hahaha :P

[JETPUFFDNINJA]

all around me are familiar faces...

[XAMEEGAM]

I think if an eadd is more than 10 or 15 seconds you should be able to skip it. Fuck Resistance 3 im hear for gears.

[XxBaTtLeToThEdEaThxX]

@XAMEEGAM YEAH! I'm tired of seeing Resistance 3 it seems every single video has a Resistance add!

[Bishop5466]

AI sucks the beserker fights alone are immpossible

[xXHarryR18Xx]

@Bishop5466 derp

[ralphy329]

i like this game but it feels like whack a mole

[JuanCapuchino]

i have a ps3, they need to transfer at least part 1 and 2 over like they did with bioshock

[Logansist]

would it matter if i played gears of war 2 without playing gears of war 1?

[VirgilMastercard]

@Logansist It wouldn't ruin the experience, but try to play it if you can.

[Logansist]

@VirgilMastercard is there important bits in gears 1 that would make me confused on gears 2?

[VirgilMastercard]

@Logansist No, all the major parts from Gears 1 are covered in Gears 2 Through conversations etc.

[Logansist]

@VirgilMastercard do they have flashbacks or do they talk about the past?

[bloodyflash95]

RAAM = Randomly, Assassinating, Asian, Men

[redfoxbennaton]

RE4 should have played like this.

[coolbeans851]

i am going to get this tomorrow. its 5 pound in cex i hope its good

[paintballJohn2]

People that don't like this game is cuzz they suck at it!

[redbamafan]

If my friend beats the game on hardcore and unlocks insane can we play it even though I haven't beaten hardcore?

[rayados6]

those who dislike any gears game are most likely a call of duty fanboy. shut the front door and go talk shit on the cod videos dam

[eminalien]

You can tell he actually PLAYED the game haha Most reviewers give generic statements like reading off bullet points.

[MrGamerMan64]

Why isn't there even 100k viewers?

[zambrano9666]

@iV2online lol yeah i got it today and it was $7

[ThoseWhoGame]

gears 1 was the best!

gears 2 sucked quite hard

gears 3 beta let me down, hoping the campaign is somewhat decent

[jtgtjtgt]

@ThoseWhoGame Gears 1 was the shit. Gears 2 was a peice of shit . Gears 3 better not let me down

[BROOKIE44529]

@ThoseWhoGame how did the beta let you down? i had almost no issues with it at all, unlike gears 2's multiplayer...

[ThoseWhoGame]

@BROOKIE44529 it was boring, the way the people ran was like they had a stick stuck in there asses, the sawed off shotty was bullshit and the retrolancer was useless. im glad they got rid of host power though, oh and the whole jump over cover and knock someone back pissed me off

[BROOKIE44529]

@ThoseWhoGame they have ran like that in every single gears of war game. yes, the sawed off was bullshit, but i hear epic has nerfed it to some degree. plus anyone who wasn't retarded chose the gnasher over it anyway. and the retro lancer was by no means useless at all, in fact most people think its overpowered, and well, it is. you can down people in under 2 seconds with that thing at the right range. and in my opinion the cover stun worked well...

[AngryLoo]

@ThoseWhoGame Gears 2 sucked? Why's that?

[ThoseWhoGame]

@AngryLoo imo the campaign was a little boring and predictable, the multiplayer was so laggy for the longest time. hit detection was quite messed up, the shotgun would one shot me from like 50 feet away but when i use it point blank aimed at the neck i see just a little blood squirt out and then i see chunks of my body fly everywhere.

[AngryLoo]

@ThoseWhoGame I see. I ask only because I'm a newcomer to the Xbox 360 (having been a PS3 gamer since 2007) and I just picked up both Gears of War 1 and 2. So far battling my way through Gears 1's campaign on Hardcore (loving it btw, it's at a level of brutal intensity that I've never seen on a PlayStation game before), and I'm hoping that Gears 2 will be able to match its quality.

[georgef357]

4.22 i hated getting chased by that mofo

[TheReggaeMortis]

>2011

>calling games 'apps'

I seriously hope you guys don't do this

[heroside1]

is it me ? or is the color in this vid gray or something

[AstronoughtNugget]

@heroside1 Its you i think mate

[halo4019]

i have gears one but not 2 but i hope to get gears 3

[Aking2710]

ive got gears 2, and i dont know if i should get the first 1 so i understand it better what should i do?

[51rickjames]

@Aking2710 The first one is only like $5 now.

[luckysix8]

damn it, at 2:33 when marcus rolled away, and the tank started to smoke, i wanted to see it explode sooooo bad

[whateve4ever]

this is one of the most overrated games ever. gets boring and repetitive real quick.

[BORICUAJESUSLOVER]

@whateve4ever Soooooo true.

[inglishbulldog]

Dude the multiplayer they show here is pathetic! Nobody plays gears like that! No one ever has!

[mrawesome211]

They canceled the Gears of War movie idea but I thought it would be great! I would see it! like if you agree

[Guyver2391]

@mrawesome211 Lot of games should be turned into movies, Gears of War God of War Crysis Killzone Uncharted Batman Arkham Asylum Metal Gear solid I seriously could go on for a long long time

[kylebroflovski123]

@Guyver2391

batman arkham asylum? we already got great batman movies. batman begins and the dark knight. another way is on it's way also.

[Guyver2391]

@kylebroflovski123 And? I would like to see a game turned into a movie this would be a good movie series also batman just like very other superhero movie will be redone a thousand times so why would you be against Arkham Asylum for a movie exactly?

[ThePunishersRevenge]

@mrawesome211 do you know the formula dude? a good game = a shitty movie, there are a few movies that are alright, but none are great, and a shitty movie = a great game, i dun wanna see gears of war get ruined on the big screen

[Kie10McC]

@mrawesome211 Be hard to get decent actors to play the parts though as they would all have to be built like bodybuilders.

[xDeGree21x]

@Kie10McC Terry Crews would defo be cole! 

[Realistic82]

@mrawesome211 I wouldn't, they would find some way to mess it up...u forget about Final Fantasy??? lol

[usaboy101]

Ahhhh back in the day when cover shooters were simple and respected now there trying to be complicated and are generally neglected by the public

[kruleb]

@Chiil07 Gears 3 will be running on dedicated servers also new modes, revamped multipayer, Horde 2.0, 4 player campaign, Arcade mode, Beast mode this game is not just Gears of War 2 polished up a bit this is a new title that completly different then the games

[REGENADEgames]

[Locustking1995]

@ultimategamer96 I agree its probaly the best game for me on the xbox 360, how anyone can agree with thats guys comment is very WTF

[GoldAcer123]

@Chiil07 yeah one game that is UNCHARTED 3

[AfroGangsta10]

This game was great compared to the second. This one had a better campaign. It was more of an all out war. And most people like the live better to.,

[MattKloepper]

Just bought Gears 1 and 2 an hour or two ago. I know what my summer is gonna end like :D

[FRANK2759]

only just got Gears of War 1 today and finished act 1 as soon as i got home! It is amazing. Defiantly going going to get Gears of War 2 and then if i am still impressed, the third!

[NRSmysteryman]

BEST SERIES EVER

[Bjjownsu10]

@Chiil07 Well you are an idiot.

[kapze]

Fanboys stay away! I got both 360 and ps3 and both consoles have good games like gears and uncharted... Stop arguing ffs -.-

[jmz1127]

[OZORxORON]

I love all the PS3 fanboys getting mad over the top rated comment.

Umad failboys? UMAD?!

[XxRusty96xX]

@Chiil07 Ever played uncharted 2? =/

[catman1233]

@Chiil07 Gears of War isn't even for PS3 douche.

[mrfailur3]

@catman1233

Wow. You are a retard.

[catman1233]

@mrfailur3 Fuck you bitch

[TheDavodude]

@catman1233

He never said he played it on PS3 lol read his comment first.

[killler5stonecold]

[xRayMan22x]

@Chiil07 you obviously don't own metal gear solid 4.

[SGoldSSilver]

Had gears since it first released and to this day I still have it and play it.

[batista31619]

Just got this for 5 bucks at Gamestop, I want to get into this series since a lot of my friends like it.

[YWOOOX]

Dude, ur a good reviewer! Why are u on ign?

[grosfredy]

@YWOOOX because ign makes great reviews?

[agentlopez1]

@Chiil07 You must be on crack.

[zawette]

@Chiil07 fake' ps3 owner

[djHoopAlot]

overrated compared to halo and call of duty series

[Ajmartinez95]

@Chiil07 dude i know your not lying same story right here tho i have 15 games lol

[stratisfire]

awesome game is awesome

[tonyrocks951]

@Chiil07 That sucks

[whereshitrise90]

@Chiil07 So I guess you bought the wrong console.

[joe29295mama]

i love my playstation, but gears of war is a fucking beast game and it will always be one of my favourite games

[1mvpkobe]

@Chiil07 lol

[19NesQuick91]

@Chiil07 lmao

[WeGotFunNGames]

fucking annoying when fighting wretches, it's hard to turn around and you get killed too easily. It also sucks that you can't run or change/reload weapons when communicating with annya. And it happens a lot on the difficult parts when you often get killed again and again that you have to start over and go trough that fucking cinematic/conversation and there's nothing you can do about it.

[TheBioLover]

@Chiil07 No, no, your lying.

[1mvpkobe]

@TheBioLover thank you

[BRANDONimasleep]

i just bought this today

[haloreach2050]

@Chiil07 i HAVE A PS3 with 1 game Uncharted and not even gears of war 1 2 and 3 compare to dis game Uncharted

[jessmonster405]

@haloreach2050 ok so play uncharted

[JawzPause]

I bought this game with gears 2 the other day for very cheap. First time iv'e ever played Gears so i was expecting a lot. To be honest with you, i was very disappointed with gears 1, i played about 2 hours, but i kept getting bored. I usually like shooters but i don't know what it was about gears that made me find it very boring. Anyway im going to play gears 2 later on, hopefully it is better.

[bballstarcrazy8]

@JawzPause Yea the reason I really love the game was because i played it back in 2006 and back at that time it was revolutionary. If you play it now it isn't going to seem that good.

[TheBioLover]

@Chiil07 Either your lying or retarded....PS3s line up is so much better....

[CliveGains80s]

SIMPLY

Is this game meant to be like the movie PREDATOR?

No a gamer but instantly felt it was like PREDATOR.

Like when billy goes crazy with that gun. ANorld's Muscles. etc

I have seen creator on tv talk but he never mention Predator with gears. Why.

I played gow 2 and it did not appeal to me like the 1st. No classic kickass intro like 2. And the movie suspence.

Maybe i like to complain alot.

I

[TheWrathMovies]

@Chiil07 But faith means confidence or trust, you can have faith a persons ability. We shall see, I'm still buying Uncharted 3 though.

[TheWrathMovies]

@Chiil07 Granted, I lost my faith in Gears after Gears 2 but I played the Gears 3 beta and my faith was instantly restored. There are so many reasons Gears of war 3 looks like it could be the best in the franchise.

[RamblingWreck21]

@Chiil07 Which is what Gears 3 will have.

[Lunelitius]

@Chiil07 I think Uncharted 2 is more fun than Gears of War 2, well you may not think like I do, but wait for the Uncharted 3, it will be better than Gears of War 3

[Lunelitius]

@Chiil07 I think you never played Uncharted :D

[Chopofiev]

Aaaa,a the Nostalgia!

[MelloMorello]

this game.....wasnt that good.
