Gears of War
Got this on release day which was Friday.
I have gone through two sets of batteries for my controller over the weekend. As I have done nothin else but play this game.
Graphics are top quality and some of the best Ive seen on the 360.
Single player campaign comprises of 3 levels of difficulty
Normal, Hardcore, and Insane.
5 chapters which take you though the story and each consist of 10 mini chapters which link nicely between each other. Story is good , lenghtly and of the usual save the world. Very atmospheric.
10 multiplayer maps for XBOX Live and this is where the game really comes into it own. Although limited to a max of 8 players, the graphics stay the same quality with no lag.
There are 3 game types
Warzone
Up to 4 players each side, team game. Slaughter the opposing team
Execution
Up to 4 players each side has a captain. Kill the teams captain to win
Assination
Same as warzone except players re-spawn once killed
The maps are very detailed and balanced for both sides.
It has an 18 cert and with full gore on, its amazing blood fest that you would expect. It is IMHO and probably be the new Halo, until Halo3 comes out. And it will have to deliver to beat this game.
If you only buy one shooter this year this is the one.
Play have it on special today for 35 notes.
That pretty much covers it bar the weapons, theres a few but cant remember them all
cheers
