so it's been awhile since i sat down and seriously played a video game ... with a storyline/plot. I don't count fighting games b/c those you can pick up and put down and not worry about forgetting what's going on in the story. nothing against fighter games though! i love them too ^_^ anyhow! i just wanted to broadcast how awesome Gears of War was! i would recommend it to...everyone! I loved the creatures I really liked the weapons (being able to use the chainsaw = awesome) wish I picked up more cogs though ^_^;; I must admit there were even times when the ambushes scared the living crap outta me lol a sign of a really good game haha this makes me really look forward to gears of war....2?? (dunno if theyre gonna make one..but i really hope so!) and it also makes me really really want halo3 to release!!! lol ok =P
