About this product

Product Information

Anointed by the games media as Microsoft's first "killer app" for its Xbox 360, Epic Games' Gears of War is a futuristic third-person shooter emphasizing tactical action over run-and-gun battles. Players are thrust in a climactic clash between what's left of humankind and a swarming underground race called the Locust Horde. The main protagonist is Marcus Fenix, a once disgraced soldier looking to redeem himself by leading a ragtag squad against the monstrous threat.<br><br>Since the alien army vastly outnumbers the team, players must use the post-apocalyptic world to their advantage, such as seeking cover behind dumpsters, pillars, cars, rubble, and other objects. The developer has adapted its award-winning Unreal technology to create interactive environments with a physics-based damage system. Players, for instance, can shoot down structures to forge new routes or opportunities to trap the enemy. Up to three squad mates will accompany Fenix in each mission, with basic commands such as "advance," "hold," or "freelance" available to guide them.<br><br>A behind-the-shoulder view similar to the one employed in Capcom's Resident Evil 4 is the default perspective in Gears of War. Weapons include an assortment of grenades, pistols, assault rifles, and other long-range blasters, many of which offer a means to engage enemies in melee combat. The Locust Horde is not averse to lunging, rushing, or gnawing at soldiers, so players have the opportunity to perform grisly finishing moves by quickly tapping specific button sequences during close encounters. Cooperative support for two players is offered throughout the campaign, and up to eight can battle each other in team-oriented modes via Xbox Live.<br><br>The two-disc edition of Gears of War features previously released multiplayer map packs, the ability for players to earn up to eight additional multiplayer achievements worth 250 extra "gamerscore" points, and trailers for the highly anticipated sequel Gears of War 2.

  • Gear of War Refresh 2 Disc Special Edition

    First of all I think the people that review these games need to learn what the reviewing process is all about. You don't write in the review complaining about the seller or offering a free system if we fill out 97892343456 offers and complete them all and end up with 257 credit cards and whatnot. This version of Gears of War comes with the original kick ass game GOW. The game itself is well worth the price new or used as it is one of the best games I have ever played, that count the single player campaign and the multiplayer. Fighting the Locust Horde is great, this game has several weapons but I think the original Lancer is the best as it has a built in chansaw....which is really cool to use. The bonus disc has lots of extra content with a preview of GOW2, also has gamer pics and themes ...

  • Gears of War Refresh (Xbox 360) Very Cool Game

    Without a doubt one of my favorite games so far! The story has a few holes (not really explaining who you are fighting), but the game play is awesome, and it actually has pretty good replay value, what with all of the cog tags you can find in the game. One pretty cool feature, is the ability to turn off the extreme content to tone down the game's violence and language, just in case you were to play with the family over or something, but even with that it's still very strong in language and violence, hence the M rating, so I don't recommend playing it in front of kids lol. One of the coolest games I've played in a while. Definitely worth it!

  • Great Shooter With Awesome Graphics

    One of the things I like about this game is the take cover system. Many first person shooters are strictly run and gun where this one lets you hide behind sandbags and walls. Now I find myself playing other FPS's and wishing I could take cover. The game play is fabulous, graphics are stellar, and the online multiplayer is great. I enjoyed playing the story split-screen with a friend and found it hours of fun. Get this game because it belongs in your collection

  • Gears of War Short Review

    This game is a great third person shorter with a good story. You get to use some pretty cool guns. The campaign will absorb 15 hours, plus or minus depending on how good or bad you are, and the online will absorb countless more, although its kind of been outdated since the release of Gears of War II and soon release of Gears of War III.
