Terrible writing? Gears of War overall story is better than Halo 1 to 3 combined.

Ehhhhh, gonna have to disagree on that one big time...


Well, you can disagree, but I firmly believe so. Bungie may have had a great plot to work with, expanded with multiple series and books, but the way the story is exposed throughout the games is mediocre. Gears of War, on the other hand, managed to explain everything self-contained in the games, whether it was the Lightmass Bomb, Dominic's over-arching plot with Maria or Adam Fenix's vanishing, if only for those random people showing up in Gears of War 3 (Gotta read the comics for that).

 

Heck, Halo: Reach is probably one of the most laughables attempts at making a plot. They completely ruined a great oportunity with Reach.


I will agree that the way most of the Halo story is told is definately sub par, but on the other hand I feel the Gears story itself is incredibly...I guess cheesy and cliche.



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.
