Gears of War has been kicking butt and taking names on every single review site on the Internet. And I’m not talking about the small rinky dink little mom & pop shops… I’m talking the credible monster monoliths like Gamespot, IGN, 1up, etc.
It’s a sure fire guarantee of utter fun on a console. Sure there are other games that are enjoyable to segments of the population but not other game this generation has caused this much of an uproar over being truly "next gen". No game since Halo 2 and Grand Theft Auto San Andreas has caused this much of an excitement ripple in the fabric of gamer space, and it’s only available on Xbox 360.
