The characters suck, the story is only ok...but yet its great...
The characters are just oversized meat heads, I guess they fit the bill but that doesnt make them much better.
The story is very vauge, i learned most of the plot from the GoW wiki.
The controls are great and simple but if you come back to the game later it may feel awkward and the hud is is also kind of strange if you haven't played for a while.
This is not family friendly. I'm not a prude but this is very bloody and the enemies are frightning looking for children.
Its overall great, no question about it but there is a chance that the character dialouge will induce vomiting, so keep a bucket handy and buckledown for a fun thrill ride and you're golden!
Now I need two fill up this review to meet the Gs standards so I guess this a "2-fer"
Hmm...Gears of War 1 pales in comparison...there, were done.
