Come on, chainsaws on a machine gun, gotta love it.

Ok, well i just got my XBOX 360 a week ago. I didn't have any games cause i wasnt sure what to buy. My friend told me about Gears or War and said buy ir right now, so i did, and im very glad. This games got amazing graphics and a whole new view that no other game (at least that i know of) has never used before. Its a side angle, your player is all the way on the left side of your screen. This game's also got brand new gameplay, you actually have to freaqking take cover. Instead or running around like a pyscho and blowing up everything you see, you have to use startagey to defeat your enemies. There's tons of cover everywhere so you are never left in the open. LIKE GORE? LOVE GEARS! this games loaded with blood, guts, brains, limbs getting shot off, whatever your sick little head can think of you can probally do it in gears. Now heres the two things i dont like about gears .......you dont have a lotta wepons. The only ones are Lancer, (machine gun with a chainsaw at the end) shotgun, pistol, gernades, rocket launcher, and a sniper. Its not a horrible selection but they could have put more in, and the storyline, i mean what in the name of sweet moses is going on. I mean i get the main story, the worlds been taken over by mutants called Locust (not the bug) but the story goes from you getting sprung from jail, to you planting a resonater (bomb) in an underground mine, to your house, to a train.......dosen't make much since. But all in all this game is totally amazing. One of my favorites and if you have a 360 get this game.....peace out.
