| One of this year’s hottest action titles, ‘Gears of War’ shoots straight to the top of the UK ‘All Formats’ retail chart, only 2 days after its release. ‘Gears of War,’ an exclusive title for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system, has sold 99,614 copies, confirms Chart Track since its European launch on Friday 17th November, setting a new mark for the fastest-selling original game for Xbox 360™. “We’ve seen tremendous excitement and demand for ‘Gears of War’ in Europe”, said Stephen McGill, Head of Marketing – Xbox and Games For Windows. “This title offers new and exciting content and is a key example of Microsoft’s commitment to developing original and immersive titles for gamers everywhere.” ‘Gears of War,’ developed by Epic Games Inc. and published by Microsoft Game Studios, is an intense, genre-defining third-person tactical action/horror game, which thrusts players into humankind’s epic battle for survival against a nightmarish race of creatures known as the Locust Horde. With its combination of cinematic, intuitive gameplay, dramatic storytelling and intense action, and with single-player and multiplayer online play via Xbox Live, ‘Gears of War’, provides one of the best next-generation interactive entertainment experiences. My personal opinion is that Gears of War is a stunning game. At this point in time, I would say I'm enjoying it's Campaign mode more than Halo or Halo 2's. There's a definite RPG feel to it at times - maybe that's just the brilliance and depth of the storyline. Some of the gameplay elements - like shooting gas barrels to spread light at night and luring a blind beasty monster outdoors for execution - are simply enthralling. My only gripe is that on split-screen versus mode, things feel very crowded. For multiplayer, my buddies and I have stuck to passing the controller around on single player each time we get nailed by the Horde. | |||
