You are the ONLY person in the world that thinks Gears is crap. :lol: [-X

Yeah they did talk about the glitches in the reviews. Something so easy to fix too. Game testers need their heads cracked together!! [-X

got this yesterday

not had much chance to play on it yet but so far not overly impressed.

controls are very gears of war but not as smooth and you cant pop shots off without coming out of cover.

once you have the glaive thingy it seems to be the only gun you can use and if you pick another gun up it times out and explodes.

ill stick with it and see how i get on.

been playing this abit more and it does get better once you power up the glaive but the cover system is crap.

finding it very frustrating when you trying to get cover behind something and you have to be facing it before it will click into cover :evil:

its a grower!!!

the more i play it the more i like.

cover system is still rubbish but something you play around, not noticed any glitches yet.

graphics are mint and the glaive is actually quite cool. you upgrade your pistol to a triple shot and you can pick people off then chop there legs off to finish em off, then you can use the glaive to pick there weapons on from a distant and get a few head shots.

then theres the undead guys who come running at you who are easier to kill, you can pop them off with a couple of shots or one shot with the shotgun as they run at you or use the glaive to finish them with some arm breaking, neck snapping antics.

very cool

oh and theres som big boss guys, just had a fight with a big mechwarrior type thing where you have to fire loads of rockets into it.

dont worry tai you have first dibs when i sell it.
