Gears of War
Gears of War a game in which many people enjoy. With it's vast amounts of game play and its wide array of weaponry this game is a must have! Its sales reached over 3 Million within its first 10 weeks of release. The graphics of the game make it marvelous. From the detailed people to the detailed scenery this game is great. The audio is great in the game and the story is better! The game starts off with you being Marcus Fenix a once COG solider that was sent to jail. You then learn the story of the Locusts that are killing the people of Sierra, well the ones that are still left at least. You go through the game as Marcus fighting the Locust and acquiring new info and weapons. Weapons include the following:
1. Lancer (a machine gun with a chainsaw!)
2. Hammerburst (another machine gun but this was shoots in spurts of 3.
3. Pistol
4. Shotgun
5. Boomshot (rocket launcher)
6. Sniper Rifle
7. Frag Grenade
8. Smoke Grenade
9. Torc Bow
The online multi player is cool too. But this is where is sort of goes downhill a bit...
I listed the ups but the downs are the following:
Semi repetitive game play. I still play it but eventually it gets to be the same. Go near someone they will use the shotgun or they will shot you in the foot with the lancer.
All in all this game is fun but I would not give it exactly 10/10 it's more of a 9.9/10. -Dqaud

Halo 3
What can I say? None of the other games I have reviewed have come anywhere close to this game exsept maybe Gears of War. You start off as Master Chief coming down on a pod hurling toward earth. After you crash you see many Marines trying to get MC "back up". When you finnaly play you notice the upgrades to the game. One of which is the graphics boost. This is not only noticable in the cutscenes but the levels themselfs. Another is the AI of the Marines. It has been upgraded. It being not only the dialog of the Marines but the agression and emotion of them. In this game you will be fighting alongside with the Arbator who is good in this game.
PROS AND CONS:
Pros:
1. Multiplayer Revamped
2. Start with the AR in stead of the SMG
2. Customizable Armor
3. Video playback of last 24 Campaign & LIVE games.
4. Gold and Silver hidden Skulls
5. New vehicles:
Brute Chopper
Mongoose
Anti-Air Wraiths
etc.
6. Level/Ranking System
7. Campaign Scoring
8. New Weapons:
Spartan Lazer Cannon
Brute Spiker
1-Handed Shotgun
etc.
9. Power Drainer
10. Shield Recoverer
11. Bubble Shield
12. Portable Shield
13. Gravity Lift
14. Detachable Turrets
and
15. FORGE!:
You take a map and put anything on you want for an amount of money.
Cons:
1. Some Glitchies
2. Easyier to die
3. Easyier Campaign
and
4. Lots of noobs online
I obviously give this game...

Call of Duty 4
Call of Duty 4 is a great FPS. The people who made this have stepped up to the full potential of the 360. They have added numerous things to this game.
During the game you will have 3 different types of people that you will be. These are the Russians, the Americans, and The Middle Eastern. As you go through the game you will try to take out the power house group that control the middle eastern. Along the way you will find tough adversaries such as elite snipers, people in trucks with turrets on the backs, and even jets and helicopters doing an air strike. Throughout the campaign you will notice the tremendous detail added to this game. In the mission on the ship, when its raining you can hear and see it actually splashing. Also during the cutscenes you will notice how much detail the game has undergone. After this great campaign you will want to go play online. This is where the game really shines. The ranking system is one that many will love. The system is that for doing certain things (exe. get 25 kills with a weapon) you will gain experience points. When reached to a certain level you will level up! Every time you level up or complete a mission you will unlock something. It could be from aiming helpers to camouflage.
PROS AND CONS
Pros:
1. Better sound a visual quality
2. New Weapons
3. Nice Ranking System
4. Faster Connections to Games
5. Camouflage for guns
6. Great Campaign
Cons:
1. Really hard to take cover.
2. Once a helicopter is released you are likely to die.
3. You wont be to good until about lvl 13
4. Some glitchy parts
I give this game 9.5☆ out of 10
