Trivia
This game is, according to Epic VP Mark Rein, the sole reason the Xbox 360 has 512mb of RAM instead of 256mb. Supposedly this cost Microsoft around $1 billion.

Goofs
In the flash back to when the resonator was deployed, Baird hangs back and watches the resonator briefly before Marcus tells him to hurry up. When the player actually witnesses this scene, Baird immediately joins the others after setting up the resonator.

Quotes
Dominic Santiago: No way... Cole Train, we saw you play.
Augustus Cole: Hell yeah, baby. Everyone wants to see The Cole Train play!
Dominic Santiago: Marcus, do you remember this guy? Division playoffs? 40 yard line?
Marcus Fenix: I remember that you owe me 20 bucks.
Dominic Santiago: Oh yeah? See me after the war.

9/10

If you own an XBOX 360, you are lost without Gears until you buy it!

I am not a major gamer, but when I heard about Gears of War and that it is better than the Halo series, I bought it. The graphics were superb, the music was outstanding and matched the game-play. WOWOWOWOW the game-play! Freakin' amazing weapons.... the chainsaw gun..... the Hammer of Dawn! Gears of War is a game that will be a classic. The actual storyline is a bit too short, but the nice thing is that once you beat the game, you can play again on harder levels. Gears is the most addictive game i have ever played other than Guitar Hero II. Even if you die in the game, you'll want to jump back into the action.

I would give this game 9 1/5 out of 10 and if you would like more information or help please look at my comment board
