Pros: Graphics are excellent, sounds are immersive, great cooperative play, love the adult language
Cons: Some online cheating, need more online maps, campaign is a little short
The Bottom Line: The killer app to the XBox 360 has emerged in the form of Gears of War. This third person shooter offers contention for Game of the Year 2006.

Pros: Near perfect, game play, graphics, and sound, round it out. Amazing in every way.
Cons: The mutiplayer is limiting but could be changed through updates.
The Bottom Line: If I had to tell somebody one game they had to play before they died I would say Gears of War. It's got the whole package and more!

Pros: Innovative gameplay, awesome graphics, great replay value.
Cons: Occasionally clunky controls, not much plot.
The Bottom Line: This is THE game to own for the 360, and those of us who own the system now have definitive justification for it.

Pros: Graphics, Gameplay, Multiplayer, Graphics, Storyline, Graphics, Finishing Moves (extreme content), Graphics...
Cons: Extreme content may turn off some. Would like to see 4 player co-op.
The Bottom Line: Buy it. This is the XBox 360 system seller until Halo 3 hits. This will definitely be game of the year, and it deserves it.

Cons: Not enough weapons; may get a little repetitive
The Bottom Line: Gears of War is without question one of the greatest games on the system to date. Worth every bit of the hype it received.

Pros: Good online, quality use of environments, gritty graphics, good voice acting - great game.
Cons: Maybe a bit too short - I didn't want the ride to end.
The Bottom Line: I'm not a fan of action shooter games most of the time, but this is a game I have played through multiple times. It is just that good.
