Cant stop playing this game. Seriously.

Love the Arcade addition to campaign to. So far only Halo games have ever had loads of replaay value for campaign. So far Gears 3 has just as much. To want to continuously play Campaign with friends over and over is a testamont to just how good this game is. After exstensive play of Gears 3 its in my top 3 games of the whhole generation.

Epic you have made something gorgeous.

Also after replayiing Act 3, the visuals there are astonishing. Some of this game just makes your eyes bleed. Seriously bloody good. When the action gets nuts defending the base at night in Act 3, Epic have somehow shhowed every other developer just what is capable. No gam looks that good with that much action. Its rediculous.

Well donr Epic.

When the action gets nuts defending the base at night in Act 3, Epic have somehow shhowed every other developer just what is capable in terms of level of action onscreen while maintaining high quality visuals. No game looks that good with that much action. Its rediculous.

Well done Epic.



I just finished the campaign and I must say it was pretty awesome! There's still so much stuff left to do though, now it's time to try some more of the multiplayer stuff.

Just finished the underwater stage. It was beautiful. I'm a little sad that I'm on the last level, now. I don't want to beat the game--but the longer I wait, the more spoilers I get exposed to.



Played TDM on Sandbar the other night and me and my buddy went 26-12 and 25-10. The remaining three members on our squad didn't get 10 kills between the 3 of them. Lost 2-1...RAGE!!

Still love this game. SOS needs the range nerfed a bit I think, I was gibbed last night from about twice the distance I would expect the SOS to be deadly at. Otherwise the weapons all have their strengths and weaknesses; only thing I'd really like is more maps. OH and and a Mechanic Baird code; I want to play as mech Baird!

Beat it on hardcore last night. Awesome! GOTY so far.

Only gripe is it's a bit easy, there were only 2 parts that I found really challenging(both in act 5). Am now playing on insane and finding it better with no bleedouts.




Gears of War 3 to get DLC starring Barrick from graphic novels.



Design director Cliff Bleszinski of Epic has revealed that the studio is working on DLC for Gears of War 3 that put's comic series Hollow star Barrick up front.

It'll feature "all new campaign content" that is devoid of main guys "Marcus, Dom, Cole and Baird". Bleszinski teases to expect Barrick "and more..."

 "No, it won't be the graphic novel, but it will have all new campaign content that doesn't have Marcus, Dom, Cole and Baird in it. Expect Barrick and more..." posted Cliff Bleszinski on NeoGAF. The Epic executive also addressed Gears of War 3's story on the forum.

"I'm not going to defend our story here, those who love it and get it truly adore it. You can find plot holes in nearly anything, from Lord of the Rings to Dark Knight. Story, like any art, can be somewhat subjective and is easy to pick on," he posted.

"The GAF crowd can be somewhat cynical. If you go to Youtube and look up many of the cutscenes deemed "silly" or "cheesy" on here the majority of the comments over there cite how the scenes moved them, made them misty eyed, or out and out made them cry."

"And those of you citing Cole as some bad stereotype - guys, that's just Lester being Lester. We introduced Jace as a more laid back character as a contrast Cole's enthusiasm. (which, after playing his sequence, is his way of overcompensating for not being the center of the universe and having to risk his neck for a can of beans now along with some aches and pains,)" continued Bleszinski.

"I believe we're getting better at storytelling with each effort and the critical consensus is that this is the best Gears narrative yet, and we'll keep doing better in the future."

"You can pick anything to shreds on the internet because you've got the time and balls afforded to you by a keyboard and monitor." Surely arguing, or trying to point something out to gamers on a forum is like kicking the tide? Fun, initially, but going nowhere.

I'm so sick of playing on Overpass. This game's only been out a week and I've already played it twice as much as any other map in this game, and it's just freaking annoying.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

What the should do make it so you can't spawn with it and treat it like a boomshot, torchbow, flamethrow, etc.

Overpass and Sandbar are great Horde maps.  Shitty MP maps though.  Good team gains the high-ground in either, and it's pretty much over.
