  • Gears of War for Windows

    Graphics: 10/10
    Sound: 9/10
    Gameplay: 6/10
    Replay Value: 5/10
    Overall: 8/10

    Well I just finished playing GoW for windows single player and I gotta say... it's pretty damn good. <sigh> The graphics are outstanding, in fact I had to turn down post processing to make it run well, those of you with physX cards should check this one out. The gameplay was very slow for my taste, the movement is very structured. Move, aim, cover, shoot bad guys. It's a good hybrid of crazy UT style weaponry and some sort of tactical style shooter. Online multiplayer for PC is a joke, there might be a few games but you have no control over what you see. You must have a "Games for windows live GOLD" acct. to get all the good stuff. Silver accts are free and give you basic online capability. Signing up can be a pain. Though I heard somewhere that M$ might make it all free, but I wouldn't hold my breath***.

    Lots of blood, chainsawed fingers and bones... blood caked and screaming murder... <sinks into catatonia>

    ***EDIT: Games for windows live IS free now apparently, my bad.

        Yea I'm getting 2 for the 360 and GOW was on the 360 also.

        I agree with most of your review except replay. I've played through the whole thing going on my 5th time now.

          well the 360 version has xbox live, which has lots of players. The only reason why I gave it a crappy replay is because games for windows live sucks IMO. Single player is good tho.
