The Telegraph: Gears of War 3 Review

But this is a game of refinement, not reinvention. Capps is right in that games are at their best and most interesting when they are teaching us something new. Gears of War 3 has nothing new to say to its audience, only more lavish and breathless adjectives to throw our way. It is, at times, nothing short of spectacular, and there is a robustness and polish to every aspect of the game that makes it consistently enjoyable. But for the series and the studio that crafted it, it’s time to pursue novelty once again.

You cant base a GoTy cotender in some reviews... That way Mass Effect 2 and RdR wouldnt have been GoTies last year since they got some 75 and 8s.

Just saying.

I might get an xbox for this game. What other exclusives should I get? I had a launch xbox when the first Gears came out but I red ringed and never went back, so I'm a little out of touch when it comes to good 360 exclusives that have come out recently.

MintBerryCrunch4969d ago

Halo Reach would be a good pick up or the Halo Remastered 10th anniversary edition of the original game, you also have Forza 4 if you are a racing fan that is coming out in October i think

i really cant think of any other exclusives this year, but there have been a lot more from previous years, so if you are looking for older exclusives, i think you can find them at relatively low prices and you would be getting some really fun games to play, plus theres also XBLA, they have a lot of arcade titles that are fun and exclusive to the system

Definitely try Mass Effect if you haven't played it yet, I got that with my first Xbox around 6 months ago and it has since become my favourite game ever. I'd say give Alan Wake a go too from what I've heard about it from others, I have a copy of it myself here but am yet to play it since I am still finishing other games. What other types of games are you into?

SIX4969d ago

Hey thanks for the suggestions guys. A little disappointed that there arent that many good current exclusives but I guess there is a huge backlog of older games to go through. Damn you gears!!! It's the only game next to MGS that makes me want to shell out for a system. I guess this is what they mean by killer app. Thanks again guys + bubbles.

I ws expecting a higher, after all that hype. I'm still renting it as previously planned.

I currently play Gears 3 often, especially after the 60 FPS Boost. Gears of War is my favorite gaming franchise, and the Locusts are the coolest faction in history. Gears Judgment will always be a disgrace for not having the Locust in VS multiplayer.

AuraAbjure672d ago (Edited 672d ago )

GoW 3 and Judgement were the last installments before the series went woke and soulless. I'm level 50 in GoW 3 and LOVE it's multiplayer to death. It's just so crispy.

My first thought. Deserved to be somewhere in there.

Vits832d ago (Edited 832d ago )

That is the most "normie" list that I ever saw. This does make some sense given the console in question, but still.

Tacoboto831d ago

Sure, the list itself sucks. But that click-saver table-of-contents, every list should have that.

BrainSyphoned831d ago

Might as well list it as the One's top twenty as well since all it had for games was backward compatibility.
