Gears of War: New screens and impressions (holy fuck!)

[Paco]

There were obviously a ton of great games to see -- Mass Effect, Too Human, the Halo 3 trailer again. But after finishing about a half hour of intense multiplayer action, there was one game I knew I had to see again: Gears of War. I don't care if I have to hold Cliffy B. hostage or spray hot booth-babes with a fire-hose as a diversion, but I will play Gears again before the end of this E3 -- it was that fun.

...Epic nailed the controls. They are intuitive, simple, fluid and seamless, and pretty damned fun.

The second thing you'll notice is the outstanding level design.

Could be THE game to own for the 360 this fall. Exciting!

i just watched the gameplay videos, it's extremely awesome and i love the RE4-like feel and camera (and the way it turns all shaky when you run while ducked). now all it needs is wiimote control! :D

it's good to see that it delivers on all its promises too, i think the character design is goofey but it fits with the over the top action. Apparently in future wars everyone is arnold swarzeneger and has mmore neck veins than we have in the rest of our bodies :D

I haven't really been paying much attention to this title much lately, but I start looking at it more closely one it gets closer to its release.
