This game made me cry when I was 12 and now 10 years later it still makes me cry to this day. Truly I missed it when epic was able to create stories as on par with halo and I love halo as much as gears
Literally just finished playing this trilogy’s campaign on hardcore mode. Beyond epic story and tremendous gameplay. The 360 is the last console I have and this playthrough for the first time in over a decade was incredible.
After replaying the trilogy it still holds up the way that I thought it was whenever I played them growing up. I might be the one person who might say this, but in gears 3 in the end I wanted one more thing. I wanted to have more sam I really didn’t even notice her the first time I played it (10+ years ago… Jesus).
People forget Horde was essential for Gears to come out with, in a world where COD World at War just came out a few years ago and Black Ops One came out just before gears 3. The early COD zombies formula is legendary and developers knew that, so Horde needed to be familiar yet innovated on and they absolutely nailed it in GOW3
One major point about the gears games is the first game introduces the main squad (Marcus, Dom, Cole and Baird) and all the subsequent games are about them letting go of their pasts… In gears 2, this happens to Dom with the death of his wife and presumably kids too. In gears 3, Cole puts his thrash ball career in the past, and Marcus has to bear the death of his father. Dom wanted to be with his wife, Cole wanted to be a superstar, and Marcus wanted to be with his father. All had to close those chapters in their lives. As for Baird, he received his own game Judgement and the Aftermath chapter let Baird finally put to rest his time in Kilo after learning about Sofia’s fate and Paduk never wanting to see Baird again.
The whole game was a W. From versus to beast mode, the game had great maps, story, and gameplay. Hell, even the DLC like Raams shadow and the multiplayer dlc were amazing. I would give anything for this game to have life again.
I played the original gears of war on pc when it came out but I’ve only just played 3. I think it’s my favourite even though I have a lot of nostalgia for the first game. It’s just epic and graphically it’s incredible in fact it’s blown my mind how beautiful it looks even though it’s old now. I’m playing it on a one x.
Looking back at the original 3 games the funniest thing that I didn’t realize until now as an adult is that the cog are fighting for humanities race there on the verge of extinct and they still treat it like the normal military holding orders keeping secrets and having clearance on certain aspects.idk why but I just find that so funny
I recently replayed 1 (ultimate) and 2 on my xsx. Gears 3 wont start unfortunately so i consume all the retrospects on it before diving into 4 again. 3 is the only one of the main line games I haven’t played yet. Looked forward to it on game pass. Too bad
Halo 3 I tied for me with Doom Eternal for the greatest FPS of all time. BUT Gears of War 3 is the untouched best third person shooter ever in my book. Even if Gears 1 is my favorite.
I just finished playing this trilogy for the first time and my only real complaint is that lots of the story elements go unexplained. Maybe I missed something but it's never really explained who the locust are or where they come from in the game. There are also parts of 3 which just feel like padding. Looking around for a submarine rota just felt like pure padding to me and there was too much of this throughout all 3 games. Having said that the cinematics, set pieces, bombastic dialogue and most importantly gameplay are just straight up full throttle fun. Cant really complain about any of that. I'm gonna play 4 and 5 now to complete the set and I can't wait to see what a truly modern take on these games and stories looks like with Gears 6!
It's very simialr to how Halo's lore is setup. There's a shit load of novels, books etc that go into the finer details around the Locust, the queen etc. So we could honestly be here all day talking about it😂 4 and 5 are in the new trilogy, like Halo 4, 5 etc, so the story is very different. Gameplay wise though, very fun. You'll really enjoy them!
For me gears of war 3 is like halo 3 great campaign and multiplayer and just added too a already amazing game. finish off a great trilogy and the multiplayer got even better I think it’s the peak of gears of war 3 in my opinion.
There are two main issues i have with gears 3's story : - the nothingburger characters that are Jace and Sam. I think they were novel characters, but they're just empty shells of a character with no arc whatsoever. I'm no pro writer, but these are awful additions to the cast in the very last chapter. They're with you for half of the game and add pretty much dick squat to the plot. Cole and Baird could have just as well been with Delta for acts 3 and 4 and it would have changed nothing (their "gather reinforcements" job could have been given to Hoffman instead of writing him off like a cameo). I think Jace was meant to be voiced by Drake (lol) so i'm guessing they were marketing tools. - The plot hole of Adam injecting himself with a near-fatal dose of imulsion. When the hell was that? Right before the firing, when the weapon was already done ? No, that's the kind of testing you do before building this kind of 30 meter machine. That would mean he would have been injecting himself imulsion two decades ago at worst, and months ago at best. More than enough to turn him into a Former. It's not plot ruining because it's a late game twist for extra drama, but it's always bugged me.
I’m playing through it for the 1st , right after beating 2, and I must say the combat and enemies are way more fun in gears 3. And all the new weapons and power weapons like the retro lancer and sawed off shotty are wild. Great game
You may notice parts of the video has no sound… say thanks to the person copyrighting parts of my video! :)

Respect for this man!

I could honestly cry at coles nostalgic throwback scene, makes you really feel for the man he use to be
Marcus has been through so much and Dom was so cool
this video only having 734 views is criminal, amazing video btw

That one shot randomly switching to dom and maria scared the shit outta me 😂
🤣
man dom's death hits so much harder than any other death in the franchise.
and also his wife's death too.
and marcus father also.

Crazy how paduk shows up in gears 5.
Yea dude Gears 1-3 were amazing. The campaign and multiplayer modes crushed
The whole game was a W. From versus to beast mode, the game had great maps, story, and gameplay. Hell, even the DLC like Raams shadow and the multiplayer dlc were amazing. I would give anything for this game to have life again.

So the audio for this video cuts out during a certain point of the video in the middle
copyright sucks :)
Gears of war 3 is my favorite. Loved the raam shadow dlc, the onyx guards.
Beast mode in horde mode. So great.
I never played 3. I found it today at HPB for $7.

ended it today, best game in series

Delta wasn't gonna pull a submarine out of their asses now were they ?

Is the video randomly going mute for anyone else
Copyright 🙃
Man they cut off the audio during Doms great Sacrifice
Copyright man, it's a killer
@_Wizzo I know but they could have been nice this one time for your great video
It's not good, or easy to say one Gears is better than the other one, so I can just say the trilogy is perfect!
Audio takes a shit part way through.
