Sinan Kubba of Xboxer360 writes "The Gears of War series is the Die Hard of gaming. There is a meaty chunk of McClane in Fenix as he angrily cajoles himself over sloppy reloads before gun-sawing another grub with his tree trunk arms. It’s just reams upon reams of silly, gaudy action with no concerns over reason, context, or genuine storytelling. How much story is required to regale about four seemingly steroid-happy dudes with presumably compensatory weaponry? You just sit back and enjoy the ridiculous ride."
For those who don't have time for massive open worlds or role-playing games with epic tales, these 15 games are worth checking out.
Gears of War 3 and Judgement servers have returned to their "updated" condition, adding several features, such as increased XP and more.
I currently play Gears 3 often, especially after the 60 FPS Boost. Gears of War is my favorite gaming franchise, and the Locusts are the coolest faction in history. Gears Judgment will always be a disgrace for not having the Locust in VS multiplayer.
GoW 3 and Judgement were the last installments before the series went woke and soulless. I'm level 50 in GoW 3 and LOVE it's multiplayer to death. It's just so crispy.
The Xbox 360 is one of the most successful consoles ever made, and the best games in its library are a huge part of why.
That is the most "normie" list that I ever saw. This does make some sense given the console in question, but still.
Might as well list it as the One's top twenty as well since all it had for games was backward compatibility.
So, the reviewers only faults were that the story is cheesey and that Beast mode isn't great, and that is enough to knock nearly 20% from it being a perfect game? That's one fifth because of the story and a peripheril game mode?
I don't expect to be shedding any tears at the storyline, if I wanted that I'd rent The Notebook, and Beast mode is definitely not the part I'm looking forward to the most, anyone else think that, after reading his full review, he's being a bit harsh?
i dont know how anyone can stomach the gears cheesy dialogue and story. its SOOO bad like sci/fy original movie bad. i tried playin gears 2 and couldnt stop laughing at how awful it was. the gameplay is really good but this cant even compare to uncharted 2. even the xbox review called it cheesy. if cliff would hire outside talent just for the story it could have been great. it seems so tacked on. i think this aimed towards 12-13 year olds cause as an adult gamer, this is pure b movie cheese. at least deadly premonition can pull the cheese off with a witty sense of humor and pop culture lore. ill go back to that and alan wake for story
Nothing more nothing less, good score though.
