I'm smitten with Gears of War and all its glorious, horrific violence, blood and anarchy. Move over Master Chief, 'cause Marcus Fenix will kick your bony ass all over town.
Gears of War is an exceptional game that truly stands out in the gaming industry. The game not only captivates players with its stunning graphics and intense gameplay, but it also delivers an incredibly well-crafted storyline that keeps you engaged from start to finish. The dark and gritty atmosphere of the game adds an extra layer of depth, creating a truly immersive experience. From the intricate character development to the meticulously designed environments, every aspect of Gears of War showcases the dedication and talent of the development team. In conclusion, Gears of War is a masterpiece that combines amazing gameplay, a gripping storyline, and a dark and gritty atmosphere, making it a must-play for any gaming enthusiast.
From the amazing experience that is the single player to the well balanced and extremely fun multiplayer to the visuals and beyond Gears is the best game of the year hands down.
One of the best team based multi-player games out there. They decided to build the whole experience around two teams. Instead of doing a lot of different modes "pretty good", they built one mode really good. The game is so balanced and fun you will never have to insist that the teams switch sides, on a poorly balanced map, for the next match.
From the backgrounds to the hiding spots that slowly diminish as they take continued fire, the developers couldn't have done a better job at providing the perfect environment.
Sure, Gears of War doesn't really offer much that is new to the shooter genre but in the same token provides an experience that is extremely well polished and more importantly, fun to play.
It really will take you only around six hours to complete the Campaign on the standard setting, but you will have such an exhilarating time playing through it you will probably start all over again on Insane difficulty...However, Gears longevity is sure to be guaranteed by its multiplayer modes that we predict could be the game to finally topple "Halo 2" from the top of the Xbox Live 'most played' stats.
Pretty dull when it's all said on done, combat feels meaty in parts but complete absence of story and dull characters drag the game right down. How did this become a franchise?
To be fair. I played this on 2023. game’s concept still great. story just decent but acceptable cause this game’s on just shooting right.about bad things that is unique feature. I don’t like reload system. it’s so annoying and running camera angle and motion is so bad. bugs everywhere every maps every times. I don’t understand how people on 2006 can actually play this game.
Déjà à l'époque, ça ne m'avait pas beaucoup plu et le temps n'a rien arrangé à l'affaire, car il ne s'agit en fin de compte que d'un nouveau principe (le TPS à couverture) surexploité et repris sur bien des jeux plus ****, notamment les Mass Effect pour ne citer qu'eux (et avec quel brio pour leur part !).
Le gros souci ne réside pas tant dans son caractère bourrin (bien au contraire) mais dans sa maniabilité pataude, son imprécision terrible à la manette (pas le choix pourtant, il est censé avoir été conçu en ce sens !) et cette phase où on doit jouer à cache-cache avec un monstre qu'on ne peut pas tuer et qu'il faut attirer à l'extérieur : un vrai calvaire.
En effet, la caméra qui fait de la merde lorsqu'on court, l'angle de vision limité et la lenteur du gros con sont rédhibitoires. En outre, pourquoi une telle phase au juste ? le "rayon de l'aube" est déjà une belle connerie en soi mais s'il faut se taper une séance de roulades dans des salles exigües, ça devient vraiment ridicule. Pourquoi ne pas assumer le côté bourrin jusqu'au bout ? Bref, ça en fait des soucis !
Cela dit, Gears n'est pas entièrement mauvais (en dehors du fait qu'il n'est qu'un long couloir scripté bien entendu) et le principe de la couverture reste excellent, les graphismes superbes, les effets sonores sont au poil et la VF hilarante. Si Gears s'était cantonné au jeu de gros beaufs qui tache au lieu de s'éparpiller dans des conneries de rayons et de roulades, il aurait pu être un honnête divertissement. Quel dommage !
