Gears of War Released Today

I've recently just gotten into the whole online shooter thing. Just started playing SOCOM, tough game, I still feel like a chump. I like Star Wars Battlefront online alot too. I'm not great but I can hold my own.

Gears sure looks kickass, should be the first killer app for the 360.

you should see Ghost Recon:AW and the Rainbow 6 demo. gorgeous next-genness in the much nearer present.

whichever one of those was set in vegas looked crazy good.

yup, Rainbow 6 Vegas is the full title. jaw dropping gameplay to go along with those graphics.

Battlefield 2. 'Nuff said.

I can't wait to play GoW tommorow but I also can't wait for Call of Duty 3 tommorow as well. Rainbow six looks phenominal as well, but don't sleep on Lost Planet in January.

and as far as killer aps, this will easily sell 360's but so 2 in ways were Elder Scrolls and Dead Rising.

Man I don't know about anyone else getting Gears but I gotta get have my first kill come by chainsaw.

From what I've read about Gears of War, it's most like SOCOM, since you're in control of a squad, and tactics are important. I've also read that the co-op is very well done.

from what we saw of it a month ago, I would consider it a melding of Ghost Recon Advance Warfighter, Halo, and Resident Evil 4. from 1st hand expirience this game is just absolutely incredible and deserving of every bit of hype.

i'm looking towards supreme commander (new total annihilation RTS), and UT2007 (of course)

I'm definitely checking out lost planet and the new black isle game (KOTORish thing).


GoW kinda seems like half life 2 - some great moments, shiny new engine, done with it about halfway through... of course, the only FPS's i've liked lately are UT2004 and CoD2. jerrys!

OK...I got to play the game last night for a little bit. Ladies and gentlemen, this game is INCREDIBLE! The graphics are the best I have ever seen on a video game. The 5.1 surround sound shakes the windows and is very well done. While I am not a third person shooter kinda guy, this game is very well done and is BY FAR the best title to hit the X360. All the reviews are dead on, this game is excellent. If you have a 360, go get this game!!!!!

yeah, kinda sucks, but most people didn't get it today. There was a shipping error in the area and most of us won't be seeing it until tomorrow.
