Blog Entries: 4 | Hmm sorry for the two-in-a-row-post but just played Gears at a friend's house. Intense action, an almost perfect blend of halo-style gun fights and GRAW tactics. pretty good for a TPS. someone explain the backstory to me?

| I have to say GoW has much better game play (...actually dive into cover as bullets bounce around your feet...), but the plot-line has more holes than a sieve. Halo will stay as my No.1 followed closley by Timesplitters3

| I think someone needs to get some Kasrkin models and convert them into a COG themed Stormtrooper Army. The problem with Gears of War is that it has really crap AI, enemy AI is fine but your squad are seriously thick! Lt Kim and Cole have death wishes and the only ones who seem to have any sense are Carmine (my favourite) and Baird. The best 360 game by a country mile is Dead Rising...now, to get another game and add to my 20,000+ gamerscore!

 Did they not realise that what made modern zombie flicks (Dawn of the Dead, 28 days later) so popular was because people actually saw how you be killed by a zombie that runs at the speed of an olympic sprinter... ...not the slow crawl and constant moaning of 'BRRAAAINNNNNNNNssssssss'. How people in those ye olde films were thick enough to stand in a corner and let dozens of zombies Slowly converge on them is beyond me...

Blog Entries: 4 | Enemy AI isn't great. they keep jumping OVER th cover while i've been standing beihind it with my chainsaw revved for 2 minutes... ... and getting cut in half. Carmine was my fave too. "hey are you marcus fenix. the marcus fenix from the emergence day battles!?" "yep" "COOL!" "not really.." *later* "... it keeps jamming. see-" *bang* *gargghll**dies* :P poor noobies without visible faces and their premature deaths...

| If they had made the zombies fast then I don't think the 360 could have handled it without reducing the zombie count on screen. Besides, there are a few "runners" on the game which sometimes make it quite scary. My favourite enemy is the Boomer, I love listening to all the things they say. I like it when you use the Hammer of Dawn on one and it says "SKY FIRE".
