Gears of War is Overrated...

[Joe]

I think the graphics would eventually give me a head ache!

 

[Sovieto]

ya it has hype and thats it

.....so says over 3 million people?

and how would the graphics give you a headache??

 

[MetroidZ]

I think it is overrated too, but I don't really care.

you gotta spend time with it and you will fall in love, you gotta have it to love it, i didnt think it was "that great" at my friends house but i trusted it would be awesome so then yah and its awesome

there is only so much time with this game...

read that and theres only 1 section on visuals

but after reading thta again i found out why most of you are turned off by gow
you all like ninty so your not really hardcore gamers, GoW is basically, a next-gen hardcore game, i dont think anyone can deny that, now im not trying to make fun of you guys or anything, or target every single one of you, but ninty isnt hardcore and of course, its not really targeting hardcore gamers, so it makes since this kind of feedback is given

I'm with Sovieto on this one. GoW is one of the best console games out at the moment. Also as Sovieto has mentioned it takes time to get used to the online gameplay and weapons. It's not like your going to be able to pick up a sniper and get instant headshots. It takes time to get used to the weapon's and map's. That's why I'm guessing some of you have given up on the game.

wat are you talking about...???next gen hardcore game.? wtf is that suppost to mean. its just another game but with good graphics and bad gameplay , there are pleanty of games that are better than that hacked up graphics fest...the game play is bad its quirky..everytime you go to run and hide behind stuff its not very responsive making it quirky...the aiming system sucks and the button scheme isnt laid out properly..

rainbow six , call duty 3, are better fps

 

[avatar20071]

I totally agree the game was overated, I finished the game on hardcore in 12 or something hours. I know everyone is like " 3 million sold ” well what else did they come out with? Face it the game was pushed out so microsoft could compete in this console war. And I go as far to say H3 will be overated too, I mean the graphics on this game is souped H2. Three years and all you guys are bringin nice weapons, bigger maps, and a long overdue story. I hope someone send these a memo Fsp are starting to show thier age. My money is on two worlds.

Right now Rainbow Six is listed as the 3rd most played xbox live game and COD3 is 4th. However GoW is still number 1. Sorry but Rainbow and COD are nothing compared to Gears.

best fps to date imo is still the orignal perfect dark for the 64
