Product Description

Gears of War, an Xbox 360 exclusive game that blends tactical action with survival horror, thrusts gamers into a deep and harrowing tale of humankind`s epic battle for survival against the Locust Horde, a nightmarish race of creatures that surface from the bowels of the planet. The storyline plays out like a Hollywood blockbuster -- lead character Marcus Fenix pits advanced human technology against the overwhelming Locust Horde. Built around a revolutionary third-person tactical combat system and breathtaking, high-definition visuals from the Unreal Engine 3, Gears of War immerses you in a horrifying tale of war and survival.

The gameplay is focused on a fire team co-op so advanced that your A.I. teammates are indiscernible from human players. Voice recognition and real-time lip synching heighten the absorbing experience. The Unreal Engine 3 technology brings out the smallest details in the largest of battles. With GOW you`re sure to experience a rich, dynamic world where characters spring to life. Speaking of life, the battlefield is a lethal place. To survive, you must suppress your enemy with blindfire, take cover in interactive environments, and use weapons and teammates to outwit your dreaded, inhuman foes. And with a title like GOW, it would be shame if you couldn`t get online and challenge live gamers. With the next-generation of Xbox Live, you`ll be able to experience individualized matchmaking, view player statistics, earn player achievements, customize games, and build personalized gamer profiles.

  • Engaging and disturbing cinematic story.
  • Movie-like cut scenes, cinematic camera moves and in-game storytelling bring the brutal, emotionally charged narrative to life.
  • Gamers control Marcus Fenix and his fire team as they pit advanced human technology against the overwhelming and horrific Locust Horde.
  • Fire team co-op action.
  • Gamers will experie

Wake me up when its over

I listened to all the hype about this game and was extremely disapointed. The graphics are ok but the majority of the game is in darkness so you lose any detail, there is hardly any story and the game play is just boring, no interesting weapons or even flexibility in gameplay.

This is the ultimate gears of war experience

Gears of War is not only the best game in the current series, but stands as a trademark of what a next gen game should stand for. It has great graphics, awsome enviroments, and solid gameplay. Gears of War 1 puts Gears of War 2 to shame in many ways with a superior soundtrack and mysterious, tense atmophere. If you own an Xbox 360 you must must must must buy this game!!!!!!!!;)
