Review
Voted best game of 2006 Gears of war (gears) is a third person shooter like no other. It is more like an over-the-shoulder shooter; the game has completely remade the way third person shooters are created. giving you new elements to play with such as jumping and pushing up to scenery to survive (keeping out in open ground results in immediate death). the beloved combat run allows you to run at almost double the speed but cant see where your going and hitting the button at the right time to reload at speed. This game also uses a lot of dailouge between characters to make the game more unique.
Gears uses the same graphics engine as the ever loved unreal tournament this adds to the aesthetics of the game.
Characters
The characters in gears are set up to two sides the humans and the Locust Horde
Each have there own set of characters pluss for the humans each character has ther own personality. In story mode a player will only have the choice of humans and will play as Marcus Fenixwith player two as Dominic Santiago, however in a multiplayer room a player will then be allowed to play as either side and choose a variety of charactres.
