Gears of War IGN review

[TheSkizsus]

its an ugly game

[Takuthecheese]

man gonna get gears 3 for sure

[NotoriousGameRZ]

the first one was the best game I ever bought on my 360 besides guitar hero 3.

[Chekirows]

i have this for PC, its a pirated version, and its fucking amazing.

[pvtSgtSmiley]

@Chekirows pirating games means you have no care for the developer who made the fucking amazing game see??

[MasterTron201]

wow the controls fail

[4lingwo4]

so does yu face

[rubixcube1567]

bast game ever

[thingscanbestrange29]

The fighting system is excactly the same as Uncharted. It looks the same, feels the same and overall is the same.

[lockjaw94]

yes but gears of war is better :D

[PlatyMoos]

im pretty sure gears came out first

[GearsOfChainsaw]

"Up there with beating Halo on legendary"? Beating Halo on legendary is NOTHING compared to beating DOOM on nightmare.

[SpudAlmighty]

a DOOM - I stil havent got past the first lvel on Legendary! lmao

[SlackerInThePub]

lol "and any bombed out honmda acord"

[zacroxs666]

the only thing i h8 about gears is lighting. i cant see at all and the campagin it takes about a day to finish it.

[hiihi20]

gow 2 is a great game! but the problem is on the multiplayer you match make right? No you don't theere is still host( which i don't mind) but it is completly random, so you get lots of laggy shit .and if u are a big warzone or excution fan like me you get pissed with the 5 round matches you have to play ='(.

[Justsmoke42O]

Thats exactly why i went back to the first one ;)

Dont get me wrong gears 2 is great but the online just isnt as good as the first

[phxsns1]

My only complaint with Gears 2 is that they took away that burst fire machine gun they had in Gears 1. They had to replace it with that crappy other....thing.

[DMMartis]

If the second one would've come to pc, I would really get it. Awesome game.

[TheElfWhoShotJFK]

They are making a film. 2010 i think it comes out.

[Rodimus78]

Another video game movie? YUCK!!

-R78

[LevKeu]

the guy talking sounds like a cross between a vjay on mtv and a used car salesman, fuck him

[P0tatoPotato]

gears of war movie would be truly amazing :P

[billybobdog5]

lol ya comes out in 2010

[P0tatoPotato]

-.- u kno thats not that long away, itts 2009 bitch!

[LtKoAlA]

I think gears is a good game but after u beat it on insane its really borin I dont bother to try the multiplayer because its the same thing over and over which is boring

[calvery28]

well theres already a halo movie in production for next year

[OctalLord]

actually i think its on stall until the find another publisher

:(

[calvery28]

well if you think the storys too short thers always online my favourite online modes exuction if any 1 wants a match my gamer tag is dagger127

[Benny2503]

when i think of gears of war i think of halo 3 over hiped and stupid

[chris37363]

very true. Halo was kind a let down but Gears, its just the best game on 360.

[OctalLord]

actually i don't consider halo 3 as stupid

nor do i think of it as a all powerfull god over all other games to date

what i think of it is: average, run of the mill, Something good to waste a Hour before going out with freinds to a movie

but nothing to get serious about.

[PaulieJ711]

i get really annoyed with EVERY game review site that LiTERALLY EVERY SINGLE GAME IS TO SHORT!!! i enjoy games for what they are not how long it is!!

[dedris360]

I can't wait for the next game on November 7.

There is a capture the flag in gears 2, but its capture a person and use him as a human shield

[calvery28]

dude sweet

[gulfghost]

i fuckin loved this game, it actually takes skill to aim, i actually use my teammates un like just going off by myself, and when you get awesome, and you play ppl who arent good, they never win!

Favorite 360 games (Top 5)

1. Gears of War

2. Bioshock

3. Call of Duty 4

4. Dead Rising

5. The Orange Box

[qualitycontrol58]

true, unlike cod 4 where skill takes no part, Gears takes skill. Although beating campagin on Insane is pretty easy, as was Halo on legendary, so I think the reviewer was pretty bad at games.

[xIKiNgSxIb]

gears takes skill? you mean Resistance + Resistance 2 Nov. 4th? i mean gears i dont want 4vs4 WTF isthat i want 60players. plus gears dont take skill people run up to you with a shotgun you die in literally one hit.

[qualitycontrol58]

no, I mean MLG, I mean real competative gaming, theres a reason theres next to 0 PS3 games on the pro circuit, because the PS3 is for casual gamers, you can't play competativly with 60 people.

besides, resistance is mediocre.

[Urnotgunnawin420]

if you really think that resistance is better than gears, then you, my friend, are a complete fucking idiot.

Resistence cant hold a candle to gears. Run and gun shooter been done a million times. Sorry bro but read EVERY review, I guarentee gears is better.

[qualitycontrol58]

...I own a 360, I've beaten Gears on insane at least 4 times, I have barley played Resistance, but it was shit.

[billybobdog5]

dude there isn't any casual games for the ps3!

[qualitycontrol58]

Yes, because Resistance 2 isn't casual...LBP - thats certainly not casual - hey! how about Motorstorm - that can't be casual.

Face it, just because something isn't brightly coloured dosn't mean is "hardcore".

I class games played at events such as MLG to be "hardcore", such as Halo 3, Gears of War 2 and Rainbow six : Vegas 2. Along with games that take skill (90% of FPS'S on PC)

[rod2467]

Thats how a shotgun is you idiot in every game you shoot someone whos in your face with a shotgun what do you expect a little hit?

[calvery28]

i never really liked bioshock too gorey for my taste but my favourite game out of your list is dead rising

[linxter360]

this game was CRAAAZY

[TeamRainbow]

Single player was Insane

[madmandragon]

The multilayer felt so original it felt like a real battle. Waiting for the enemy to make the first move and counter attack it find the weak point intimidate the enemy by saying your t.v isn't on great times.

[Patismint94]

the split screen vs mode in this game is good, but it is very slow play, unlike halo or cod

[chevyfan999]

yeah i didnt find halo 3 very fun it was ok but gears of war is stil way better they just ruind halo3

[bluedoghell]

ok i hate most of the games i have played but here are the top three of my shitty games awards

4> halo 3: over hyped up the ass god could we end it the first was okay second one was ass but this is shit

3. call of juarez : another craptastic fps

2. Gears of war : over hyped as fucked and was done about a million times before ( war of the worlds, halo, etc)

1. alone in the dark : oh god ( pisses him self)

[ladragon91]

I didn't really like the multiplayer, but the single player/co-op was fun.

[champloizos]

this is a very good game dudes probably 1 of the best it's as good as COD4 GTAIV MGS4 and i think is better than the 3 of them

[sapplaa1]

why is everyone putting comments about gta4 and mgs4 this is gears of war no one gives a shit about those games right now

[CrzyNick]

Gears is like Halo for the first xbox. This game is the main reason anyone should have a 360. Basically it's the shit.

[naveengta]

one stupid cover system can make a game historical, legend.....? IGN fuckers!!!

U people arent real gamers .

GTA IV 4 is 100000000000x greater than Gears of War , MSG 4, Call of Duty and all other bullshit 1st person shooters

[CrzyNick]

I (who has all those games) can say that out of those games gta4 would be dead last.

MGS4,Gears,COD4, then GTA4

[mrnathangul]

init gta 4 sucks dick

[peterox14]

faggot fanboy asshole

[CrzyNick]

How are we fanboys?

[americathefat101]

gow is just antoher boring alien shooter with a coveer system  better on gta 4 and mgs4 trust me this game is crap now just watch whity's review

[N1ggaFrmNY]

U said GOW is boring but before u said "I love this game." U confused little bitch. Either u like or u dont. You know you like it faggot so shut the fuck up.

[americathefat101]

it is boring after a bit but i still it..no need to throw a tantram like a little girl its my oppinion..if you reply to this you have no life

[anbadream]

HEY LOOK I REPLIED AGAIN!!!

[SRV121]

i to would prefer a stand alone deathmatch but GOW2 will have a capture the flag (using an AI as the flag) and a couple of other modes but no execution =(

[RedeemerE23]

LOL this fuckin review guy Its not planet Saren its fuckin Earth thats the name of the city. It's just one of the last strongholds... wth

[PrisOwner16]

no the name of the planet is Sera! it a fictional planet based on earth!

[americathefat101]

dude...you cant compare mgs4 to gow! stfu.. i love this game but mgs4 is a fucking masterpiece

[xxSymbiotexx]

yes it is!

[FifaSoccer95]

OMG i sooooo want to buy this game... mom wont let me, She says its too gorey but i own halo 3 and thats still pretty gorey... Ugh Or at least id like AC but it cusses too much otherwise both great games from what ive tried....

[americathefat101]

tell your mom to fuck off

[anbadream]

okay, i will

[americathefat101]

fag

[mastaODI56]

halo 3 is not gory

[Celtics982]

This game is sick. Way better than Call of Duty 4 and all the rest of them damn overhyped games. I still havent seen a game with graphics on the same level as Gears. I heard Crysis had good graphics but i aint played that. Gears of War 2 is gonna take a big shit on Call of Duty, Halo, and evry other shooter thats trying to keep up. Word.

[tekkenhalo]

I look back at this game and realize how great it is. When people get bored of their new games like Halo, Call of duty, guess what game they start playing again? This game deserves a 10/10!

[4DUMBASSES]

mom = no let me play

[kpdc1]

pay some 18 year old to buy it for u

[gangzta14]

i had a 360 for 3 years and still aint got dis game!!!! :(

[MasterofDisaster17]

dude by it now!

[FaveSho]

why would he do that when gow 2 is coming out in 3 months

[TVwatcha01]

I doubt it will "go down in history", but it will be good no doubt (:

[Shehzadinthehouse]

man gonna get gears 2 for sure

[Shehzadinthehouse]

man gonna get gears 2 for sure

[KnightOfDaFunk]

I dnt hav a ps3 der heaps of ovr expensive shit, and i certaintly aint no fanboy tnx

]

Ye the game may go down in history that doesnt mean i have to fucking like it, my friends play it i dnt, its done a million times b4 i dnt see wats so amazing

And on the subject of fanboys why is my comment and IvanPlaystations got minuses on it?

because u fanboys cant take any fukin truth about your done 50 times b4 game (WOW its has a cover function!)

[foosa123]

lol i still have to get this game...definitely before gears 2

[KnightOfDaFunk]

Over hyped piece of shit, its good for some time, not much time tho

[swithcblade444]

This game is awesome....sad that you have to get that windows live thing for multi player on the pc....pretty stupid..but the game is awesome..

[RobohX360]

ive got the NEW trailer for Gears of War 2 on my channel, just came out today, check it out

[IvanPlayStation]

over hyped

[newyorkbombers13]

lol i still need to get this game.

[tlandry24]

just beat the game again today, sooo amazing

[aluparatha]

this game is awesome a year onwards dere still hasnt been a shooter to top this yet. it kicks cod4 up da ass.

[megabloopers123]

This game is awsome, yeah, but no way better than cod 4. NO WAY

[tramp124]

hmmm, i'll have to agree with megabloopers, COD is much better, although they are both totally awsome games!

[wavesnew]

looks like Batista

[waddler5]

this for sure bro

[wetmyself8]

Should i get this or Stranglehold.

innocent boy looking for an answer

[mousehands]

[sansan36]

[ajptem]

2 is officaly announced ( it isn't but i am sure it is because why not lol ? )

[mastradamjk]

i love this game and i think that i will buy an xbox 360 but the ps3 is way more better than xbox but doesn't have that intense games like xbox but i think in the future ps3 will fuck xbox with its games.what do you think?

[jester2192]

if you think the 360 and ps3 will mate and have children, then i think you are an insane nut case...

[mastradamjk]

lol,your mind is sick man,and when i said that ps3 will fuck xbox 360 i meant that ps3 will be much better on games than xbox 360

[sangeetara]

how could someone be that stupid jester somting or other asshole

[ps3X360fanboy]

i do wish they had deathmatch mode 2

[myeasytoremembername]

[happyracoon77]

[young128]

[reillyz]

thank god theres only deathmatch. none of that capture the flag or other light weight crap.

[oblivion31]

Yeah, deathmatch is fun.

[Tradgorbian]

hells yeah

[cvaletodotodo]

this game kiks ass bad that you get bored fast of it but i still play it... srry played it my xbox died :(

[SamofGF]

[oblivion31]

They gave it 9.4/10.

[Tradgorbian]

[greyoldfellow]

he-man of war xD... cant whait 4 it to be out on pcs.

[quilesboy]

"theres only that one basic mode. theres also..."

wtf?

[qwertywolf2]

i luv gow both god of war and gears of war lol

[frynsesmadrer]

godfuckingdammit! my gow is broke! it was probably my favorite game :(

[lujino]

I have a PS3 and a 360 and PS3's graphics are far, far, far superior.

[ColoradoTypewriter]

Why the hell would you make a fanboy comment like that?

[oblivion31]

Tell me one fuckin' game that has better graphics than this. ONE. You fuckin' loser.

[dehollywood]

easy buddy. Graphics dont mean shit if the game sucks. Just look at lair.

[oblivion31]

Sorry, just got mad at the fanboys. Lol.

Yeah, Lair sucks.

[NovaAshura]

MGS4 is better than that shit game....SNAKE RULES!!!

[oblivion31]

Yea, he does...but so does Gears.

[bobbobbobbob10]

Wow, this game is the best game I have ever played. The graphics are jaw dropping. Anyone with a Xbox 360 should buy this game right now. Only if you are 14 or older though.

[greenslave2]

Its your belief that it's the truth, stop cramming this crappy chainletter down everyone's throats you ignorant punk.

[Hydragundam]

that whole jesus thing is way off topic,this is why i find christians anoying.

[quilesboy]

it's the truth

[Hydragundam]

just because something might or might not be true dosent mean you have to spread it around,christianity is like a desease and your blind conviction will be the endof us all.

[quilesboy]

blind conviction?

[maneater653]

wtf does this have to do with the video

[xxHazyShadowsxx]

What does Jesus have to do with GEARS OF WAR?

Btw, Let people choose their own religion, and dont thrust one upon them...

[yasofy1994]

yea this game shows the 360's true powers.

[DarkRaiden7]

the graphics are the that i ever hav seen right now

[Oiram123]

best?

[assisindrifter742]

How can you tell when your dieing or your health? They dont seem like theyl'l easily. With all that armor

[tinymidget1979]

PS3 sux Wii and Xbox are the best.

[maneater653]

nintendo wii pwns ps3

[MansonGoth]

THIS will pwn HALO 3 AND PS3!!

[rdarod]

im gonna wait and c if they lowers it price to around $200 cos than xbox and ps3 will b preety even and more exclusive games will b out and than ill choose so ha i beat u!!!

[CoolBrinkman]

Resistance can't even beat Halo 2 or even...Dead Rising's graphics. Good day.

[DIONETO]

Ok. Graphics are amazing. Controllers are so so.

AI is rediculous.

Resistance >>> GoW

[SuperfluousStudios]

Yeah, twitch shooting games and mindless shooting never gets old or stale and is clearly superior to the tactical shooter aspect of Gears.

[SolRosenberg84]

Only if you are a pussy who plays on "casual" difficulty. Try "hardcore" for a good challenge, and "insane" for a crazy hard challenge. The AI is quite intelligent at those difficulty levels, they will out think and kill you occasionally.

[liljon546]

I agree. It's way to easy on casual but when you play on hardcore, and insane, you will have a great challenge.

[pistonfan]

no it doesnt

[MyEggIsBoiled]

Fuck the PS3. I am sorry, but if you feel the need to spend fucking 600$, do it on something worth the time. I love 360, but it's as if 400$ for that wasn't bad enoug already.

[ian7410]

this game is amazing you can play through single player in co-op with another person from xbox live!

[piratesfan]

this game kicks ass, i love it..hardcore mode is insane but fun and challanging...this game is the ps3 killer until the game comes out next yr halo 3 and sony wont have no chance.

[moshaspartan]

ive had this game for a few days now, fuck me...it is fucking brilliant. this game alone pisses on the overhyped ripoff that is ps3, never mind the upcoming Halo 3...

[Spartan5693]

Good game.

[oglow1]

i love this game and he was right u better start of on hardcore cause Casual is to easy

[pistonfan]

ill probably start on casual to get a feel for the game

[thatoneaznboi10]

this game is amazing no other game is in the same ranking as the graphics and gameplay for a 3rd person shooter.

[krakatok]

360 Gears of war<ps3-Resistance fall of man

i like ps3 more because it has a built in wifi and more things to do, more gb and better games and better grafics

[CARmakazie]

Have fun spending $650+!

[Royalty2prince]

OK, so wat console are u buying? Wii, ok wat game are u getting that has great graphics and live play like this, and if a ps3, that will cost way more and you know that. Unless your not a gamer and jus posted this comment cuz your a fukn faggot.

[moe5000]

u like ps3 eeb/c u r retarded

[c433z]

doesn't matter cause crysis on the pc is gonna kick all their butts.

[knighty]

You're an idiot. All the games that are on PS3 and 360 run BETTER ON THE 360. Read the reviews. And GoW looks considerably better than RFoM.

[Royalty2prince]

whats up cock suker, have fun waiting in the lines outside da store for 2 days and then finding out that you were one of those unluky childs tat recieved a bugged ps3.... oh yeah, u must also have an hdtv right, cuz da graphics on da ps3 and da 360 are da same or atleast close to each other since da ps3 down graded so many times and heres another fact for u Halo3 >>>> PS3

[moshaspartan]

360 has better graphics and a far better lineup. you tard.

[GaimerMan360]

shut up!! you idiot xbox360 will always be better than ps3 in all aspects. Gears of War made 360 the better system and 360 has better graphics

[Zaven65]

Halo 3 will Pwn ps3
