Editorial Review: Product Description: Gears of War, a third-person tactical action/horror game, puts you in the boots of Marcus Fenix as you fight a war against the immense Locust Horde, which not only out powers but outnumbers you, your squad, and the entire force of the Coalition of Ordered Governments. Gears of War is the only game to blend a deep and disturbing story of human survival against an endless mass of nightmarish creatures, a next-generation tactical combat system, and unsurpassed visuals and special effects. The story unfolds as a ragtag group of soldiers use every last ounce of strength to survive the onslaught from the forces of evil, which begins on the historic Emergence Day. Multiplayer capability - gamers around the globe to connect via their PCs via Windows LIVE All-new content, including three new multiplayer maps, a new multiplayer game type, five new campaign chapters, DirectX 10 support and a game editor for unlimited user-created content ESRB Rated M for Mature Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Bugs and repititionThe first problem with this game is that you need to sign into LIVE to save any progress in single player mode. If anything happens to your Live ID you loose your game. At least when it's saved on your hard drive you have the option of backing up any game progress and can restored it if anything happens. But most of all it wasn't that good of a game. I was first attracted to it because your blood splattered on the monitor when you got shot. As it turns out, not enough to make the ... Read More Rating:  - Console port with a few extras.Gears of War for PC is basiclly a console port with a few more extra content added onto the 5th act. Just like the console version, this is an amazing game. The cover and shooting system is extremely fun and online play is addicting. The extra content added onto the levels is cool but not amazing. I have not experienced framerate/save game issues unlike what other reviewers said, although when i got the game it did take a long time to update because of the games for windows live bugging out on me ...

I am running 64bit Vista with an AMD 5000+ Black Edition processor, 4GB of 800Mhz dual channel RAM, 2 160GB SATA HDD's stripped, and 2 XFX 8600GT XXX edition PCI-E video card in SLI config. There are only games installed in this instance of Windows. With all of this I still have issues with studdering while running the game on mostly medium and low settings. Online play is good, but I have issues finding people to play with within ... Read More Rating:  - annoying gameduck.. fire fire fire... game over. RELOAD CHECKPOINT and wait one minute.... run duck fire fire... opps... RELOAD CHECKPOINT and wait some more. run run run... duck... fire... RELOAD... While this is a fun game for the most part, the checkpoints are few and far between. Unless you've mastered the game, you spend almost an equal amount of time playing as you do for the game to reload. This is on the medium level and from someone who is a pretty good game player. Now if you play it extra ...

One of the few things i like about this game is that I can bait enemies and have them come to me, then i flank around them and BAM!(im talking multi player) direct shot in the body with a shot gun sends there body ...
