well i was just home one day looking for a job. tired of filling out applications so i turned on my xbox and saw that there were some gears of war 3 clips on so i downloaded one of them to check it out to see when the game was going to be released. little did i know the game released that very same day. so i grabbed my wallet and ran to the store for another Gears adventure. one of the first games i got for Xbox was Gears of War. (actually it was Dead Rising, and Gears if War). i loved it from the start.
unlike Gears of war and Gears of war 2 this game has a little bit more of a personal touch to it. the first game was more of a "hey lets kick some ass" feel. the second game was more of "come on team lets work together and kick some ass". this game is more personal because they continued the struggle with Dom who lost his wife, Cole goes back to his home town, and Marcus is out to find his father. im not sure if i gave too much away in the story thats why i put the spoiler alert on it.
the gameplay was good but to me personally i feel there was too much story and not enough game play. thats one of the problems i have with games. i don't want to watch a movie i want to see short clips and then go back to shooting. BUT after saying that i actually did enjoy the story. it didn't seem like there was too much action compared to the other games but it was satisfying enough to make me happy. there wasn't very many new weapons. there is a sawed off shotgun that seems almost useless. the Retro Lancer was awesome even though its different from the normal one.
so even with its slight hickups in my opinion. i give gears 9 out of 10
