Gears of War Review
Named Game of the Year at the 2007 Game Developers Choice Awards, ‘Gears of War’ is a technical masterpiece. So impressive is ‘Gears of War’ that New Line Cinemas recently announced plans to bring the larger than life story and graphics to the big screen in the summer of 2009.
As the more than 3 million Xbox 360 players who own a copy of ‘Gears of War’ already know, the game is a unique combination of stunning graphics, an inventive and exciting action game, amazing sound effects, and an impressive sound track.
More sophisticated than other games of its genre, ‘Gears of War’ is a thrilling game of non-stop hide-and-seek action. With a unique combination of gore and beauty, ‘Gears of War’ provides players with an awe-inspiring, heart pounding gaming experience.
Heavy on action and tactical strategy, ‘Gears of War’ is a sci-fi shooter set on the desolate planet Sera. The protagonist leads the charge to destroy a vicious race of subterranean aliens who waged a war against humankind that led to the destruction of civilization.
The story and dialogue are interesting enough, but what sets this game apart from its competitors is its sheer artistry. Impressive graphics include an extraordinary array of monsters and weapons and scenery so real that players feel transported to Sera. The realistic scenery varies from underground networks of caverns to mansions, coliseums, even industrial processing plants.
Whether you are playing ‘Gears of War’ alone, with a gaming buddy, or via Xbox live, you are sure to be captivated by the game and its remarkable use of technology and special effects.
