Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

[QUOTE=superdave;415105]I started playing it this week and it's the best graphically looking game I've seen. It's worth buying a XBOX 360 just to play that game.[/QUOTE]

To update on this - Gears has ruined me for other games at this point. I've tried playing a few other games, but Gears is so far ahead graphically and fun to play that I don't enjoy other games.

Btw, Gamespot gave it game of the year.

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

I love the controls + the way the characters move in relation.... very very fluid

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

Intuitive...there is almost no learning curve as far as the controls go.

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

it does doesnt it ? My TV Maxes out at 1080i and I've been playing it all along on this rez...... looks sick

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

As far as I'm aware it only puts out 720p or 1080i, but not 1080p

In fact, I'm not sure which games support 1080p (yet)... maybe Fight Night. God damn the character modeling in that game is ridiculous :)

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

None of the next-gen consoles can do 1080p. But then again, very few HDTVs can do it either...so it doesn't make all that big of a difference.

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

I'm onto the first Berserker, trying to lure him out of the building. Man, I am actually SCARED of it ha ha ha! You run away from it and the next thing you know it chops you up into little pieces! You can't even see it coming.

Will definitely crack it today, I know what I have to do, just can't do it right yet!

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

walk, dont run, its deaf, when you get to the front of the door, turn around slowly and face it and then reload your weapon, as soon as it charges at you, jump out of the way.

and yes it's scary trying to fight it cause you gotta walk away from it and you never see it coming until you're in pieces :lol:

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

Just picked up a Xbox 360 and this is the first game I purchased. Can't wait to give it a try.

Re: GEARS of WAR-- OMFG

get ready to get hooked..... and for the love of God dont start at the easiest mode, pick the middle one, else you'll finish the game in 2 straight days like me and regret not getting the best bang for your buck
