Ever since the first mention of Microsoft’s Xbox 360, we’ve been seeing tech demos of Epic Games’ masterpiece, Gears of War. Now that the game has hit store shelves, it’s obvious that the hype couldn’t exceed the brilliance that is the Unreal Engine 3.0. In Gears of War, you play as Marcus Fenix, a former war hero wrongly imprisoned by the government and now, the world’s lone hope. Combat the Locust Horde on the dilapidated streets of the planet Sera using a variety of machine guns, pistols, and grenades. Take the fight online in one of five unique multiplayer modes, and tackle the main campaign with a friend using online or split-screen coop. Less

Cons
story could use more depth, could use some more diverse multiplayer options

Yes
Gears of War is the title to have if you own an Xbox 360 this Christmas. Still one wonders whether this title is just a placeholder until Halo 3 comes out. Ironically this would be similar to a situation last generation where Epic released a surprisingly solid Unreal Championship for the original...

The meat, potatoes, side-dish and the dessert!
Cons
Story needs some explaining, single campaign is short, no replay value.

I do not want to sound like a prick. I do not want to sound like a bastard. But I must tell you the truth. So here it goes: Gears Of War is fun as hell and whoever that doesn't have it...should well, let's say you'll be missing out on a lot! Gears Of War has been highly anticipated over the year...

Red Dead Redemption was released in 2010 as the ultra-successor to 2004's Red Dead Revolver and Rockstar's next game after the monumental Grand Theft Auto IV.

graphical glitches, cheating AI in mini-games, short

I probably wasn't going to pick up Red Dead Redemption a couple months ago. A couple things came together to make that possible. First, someone at work was ranting and raving about the game and how much fun it was to run around collecting a huge bounty. It reminded me of the fun times playing Grand...
