Not Worth Buying
I have a 360... I have an HDTV... but these graphics were aweful. Story line repeated and was very unimpressive. I was super eager for the game to come out and once i bought it I realized it wasnt worth it. It took me no time at all to beat and justg wasnt worth the money

Pure fun
If you haven't heard the buzz about this game already then you are probably living under a rock.
Pick it up for a fun single and co-op game. Although not too long, you will fully enjoy it!

"Set The Way For Future FPS Game"
In late 2006,Gears Of Wars is released for the XBOX 360 but actually was supposed to be released 6 months earlier then its release date of November 2006.Gears revolutionizes the FPS shooter games with its killer cover system and more but actually its the best thing that happened to the FPS games since Half-Life or Halo.Gears was Microsoft`s console seller during the holiday period of 2006,a game with such a reputation better be awesome,and that`s precisely what Gears Of Wars is.
You play as Marcus Fenix,an inmate once left to die.Now you must save the world from hordes of Locusts,monsters that attack everything in sight and kill every one of them and that is what you will do troughout the game.The Locusts need to be killed but there are much more serious ennemies such as the powerfull Beserker,and of course no great game is complete without a massive epic battle with the final boss,in this case General RAAM.
Gears introduces a new cover system that is highly effective and appreciated.That gives you the chance the shoot the ennemy from many angles and when you are covered simply press the A button to move to the other side of the doorway.The reload technique is also pretty effective,and the best of all is killing the ennemy with the chainsaw that is located under a specific gun,just great guitly pleasure.
GOW is actually worth playing all the way trought,it ain`t that long however about 8 hours to finnish,depending on how good you are.Its a great story mode and those 8 hours were some of the greatest moments of my gaming life and it was well worth,it really used your brain to figure what to do to get to the next part of the game and develop techniques against the ennemies.
Everyone I know who played Gears were blowned away by the game and all still talk about it,its a console seller game and one that will be remembered for years and consoles to come.A few games are going to be remembered from the XBOX 360,and im happy to say Gears Of War will be one them and high on the list!It is already influential,and its influence can be seen in games like "Bioshock" who is really good by the way.
Online is good and pretty fun,there a few good types of games to choose from and its entertaining.Multiplayer on the other hand is awfull.Its just a matter of who kills who first,and its in rounds so the player who has the most rounds won,wins.I skip it and go for the story mode or online,you can also do the story mode in co-op wich is really nice.Gears takes the mutiplayer experience to great highs with its online multplayer.
There is no point in hidding it,Gears was made and plays as if it was a movie,the cinematics are amazing and can compared to a movie.Even the characters could be movie characters,Marcus Fenix and the other have voices and characteristics that could fit very well into a movie.I actually like the feeling that its a movie,and there is even a possibility that GOW WILL be a movie latter on.The ending of the game leaves room for a sequel,a sequel we can only hope will as good as the first wich is not an easy task to complete.
The game`s graphics are probably the best seen on the XBOX 360 to this point,for anyone who didn`t think it didn`t the graphical edge over the other consoles,take at look at this on a HD-TV with HDMI.Anyway,that ain`t really point,its just that Gears has incredible graphics all the way and everything is extremely well detailed from monsters to rocks.I never imagined graphics being this good before GOW was released,the graphics really are that good!
Overral,Gears Of Wars is one the most satisfying and fun game I played in my life.If you are mature enough,like FPS,this game is for you!The highest rating it can get is not enough,highly recommended,5 stars.
