Gears of War is the biggest, most important and most quality title you will find on the Xbox 360. In the game, Marcus Fenix is leading a team into war against the Locust Horde- a race of pasty subterranean nasties who crawled out of the ground to destroy mankind. Marcus has varies objectives to push back the Locust Horde. Gears of War created a whole new genre in video games. Gears of War requires a lot of covering which makes it a cover shooter. You take cover on a wall or behind an obejct to get more protection from enemies, especially when they can kill you in a few shots or if you are facing many enemies or just playing in higher difficulty. All that requires for Marcus to cover is a simple tap of a button. While covering you can choose to do some actions like rolling or over shoulders aim.
Another great feature is the chainsaw attached to your riffle. You will use it to kill enemies way too close and for a finishing move in a multiplayer game. Both the multi-player and the single-player are good. For single-player, there is plenty of variety and you wont be doing one thing for too long. You could be attacking a room full of hordes and the next moment you might be defending the room. Another great feuture is the co-op play. It is a little different than single-player. For example, in the early game, you are asked to split. One of you can cover the other or you can take care of 2 things at once. You can also revive you partner which give you the choice to kill the enemy first or revive him ad finish them faster. The milti-player mode requires skill , strenght, and strategy with you team in order to win. Unlike many other games, if you are 2v1, then the you will win most of the time. With the beautiful graphics and intensive game play, you can’t resist it.
