So I havent had a discussion thread in quite a long time , I think the last one that I had was Full Auto and that was quite awhile ago so I was looking at all the games that are worthy of a discussion thread and what games are already taken. Madden taken , Saints Row nope. Then I figured SD vs Raw 2007 but something like that shouldnt be done for another 2 months at least so it came to me GEARS of War its Halo 2 , Its Ghost Recon, Its Unreal, Its the best of the best of shooters all packed into One Some may relate to it as a modern Bionic Commando but without Furtherado it's known as
Gears of War
In this third-person tactical action/horror game, players live and breathe the role of Marcus Fenix.

Gamers immerse themselves in an experience so intensely emotional and gut-wrenching that playing will be like controlling a blockbuster action movie.
Gears of War utilizes the breathtaking new Unreal Engine 3 to create cinematic, high-definition visuals for a gaming experience that truly ushers in the next generation. Gamers will experience beautifully rendered interactive environments and characters so lifelike they appear to be made of flesh and bone.
