SCEA so there is ZERO possibility of GoW 2 or 3 ever being on another platform ... which is why I am so blue. I gave up my PS2 but I can't seem to part with the actual game or the memory card with my games stored on it.

Talk about a great game ... if this game deserves a 95% and 12 perfect scores then GoW deserved at least 10x that amount. I mean Kratos alone completely overshadows the Gearheads ... all of them. And the story and gameplay was nothing short of perfect. There will never be another game to match that one ... well maybe GoW 2 and 3 :D but sadly I will never have the chance to play them. DAMN YOU SONY DAMN YOU TO HELL. :lol: And it is Gears not GoW or GOW … that is reserved for the awe-inspiring game God of War … which came way before this mess.

Play it though ... on hardcore by yourself and then tell me what you think. And try not to be overwhelmed by the visuals. I used to constantly hear (especially from the Unreal Community) how gameplay was greater than graphics ... and then this beautiful mess of a game came along and turned 90% of the gamers I know and am acquainted with into raging hypocrites. It is really driving me crazy ... I haven't been able to get myself to load up this game in about a week now. I just want to Puke everytime my suicidal AI squads goes charging into battle with weak underpowered weapons and typical macho dialogue (which is flat btw). What really just eats me up alive is how much I was hyping this title to everyone I knew since summer 2004 ... and all I got back was so what if it looks good it's still just another shooter. Now I am probably the most vocal critic and I wanted to like this game more than anyone. I mean at one point I was one of the top Epic fanboys around. Let me once again remind folks that I was the Project Leader for HaloUT .. an UT2K4 mod. So I was really looking forward to this release and the chance to see UE3 in action from Epic themselves ... actually I am still looking forward to UT2K7 just so I can do a new TC mod ... but still this game let me down on so many levels as drop dead gorgeous as it is I want a DIVORCE ... if you catch my meaning.

It's just a big hype machine to sell 360s. I just don't think that Gears deserves all the praises it gets. I feel like it's a Halo3 appetizer. I don't believe that Gears is better than Zelda through a storyline and gameplay standpoint. I don't know man. I just don't know. Why do I get the feeling that Gears of War is just a big lie.

If people like it fine ... Me I can't understand it at all; other than the fact the presentation is so amazing. But gameplay is lacking ... as is originality and a solid story ... plus how can anyone make any connection whatsoever to the main characters ... they are just steriod blown macho man stereotypes who lack any depth whatsoever. I really believe there is something sinister happening to secure Gears gets GOTY over Zelda. But I have no proof and I could well be 100% wrong on all of this. So be it if I am.
