Gears is ultimatly the best game out this year and I'm blown away at how good it is and the depth of the game experience is definately a huge improvement on what was already a fantastic game. I trully feel sorry for you.

I was kidding btw. Below was copy and pasted from a very non-biased site. They ended up saying that the game is a “buy”, they dodn’t give numeric scores. So it looks like the game is definatly good, but not exactly perfect. The good • Bountiful UI improvements and fixes • Greater scale in graphical presentation • Great new multiplayer modes • Longer campaign with some really interesting bits • New weapons, enemies mix up the action well • Horde mode is awesome • Offline multiplayer, bots The bad • Campaign feels uninspired at times, best bits are with the exeunt • Online party interface not conducive to small groups, solo players • Level design can be frustrating at times • Single-player experience suffers slightly from co-op focus The ugly •The fact that, in spite of how good this game looks, the Unreal Engine 3 seems to be incapable of rendering the game's sole female character in a way that doesn't look hideously grotesque. lol I knew that would get you pissed Harry.

The good

• Bountiful UI improvements and fixes
• Greater scale in graphical presentation
• Great new multiplayer modes
• Longer campaign with some really interesting bits
• New weapons, enemies mix up the action well
• Horde mode is awesome
• Offline multiplayer, bots

The bad

• Campaign feels uninspired at times, best bits are with the exeunt
• Online party interface not conducive to small groups, solo players
• Level design can be frustrating at times
• Single-player experience suffers slightly from co-op focus

The ugly

•The fact that, in spite of how good this game looks, the Unreal Engine 3 seems to be incapable of rendering the game’s sole female character in a way that doesn’t look hideously grotesque.

Killzone 2? Are you serious? @ idiot,

I agree that Dave is the more balanced one, but to say that there aren’t any more Halo games announced for the 360 about a month after Halo 3 Recon was announced was purely asinine.

Killzone 2? Are you serious?
