I didn’t know that. It led an amazing life, what else can you say? It was an amazing console, whether you agree or not. It was an amazing console that had an amazing life.
Looking at all the Youtube thumbnails in my feed in the past 24 hours, Xbox died somehow. RIP John Halo and Mark Fenix
They should include “Gears of War” in the list of Spanish-speaking countries on Wikipedia, it’s amazing how popular the franchise is in South America. More than half the people I see in multiplayer are from there
I’m not sure what’s wrong with my brain but I’ve always just liked Gears multiplayer more than any other multiplayer I’ve played and keep returning to it. I wish Gears 5 was more like Gears 3 though, I loved the maps and weapons in that game. 5’s loadout system is mostly completely vestigial since they took out the three starting rifles and the sawed-off shotgun. I rarely used them but I liked the choice being there. Maybe that Gears collection will happen one day and it’ll have an updated Gears 3 MP

Also the sawed-off was just a really fun gun
Yeah man I really have no explanation, especially because I’m also Mexican lmfao I don’t know why we love this game so much, but gears was my halo uncontested.
Oh my god are we the same person?
I hate you with the passion of a thousand suns.
While I didn’t use them a lot myself, beginner-friendly alternate loadout guns like the Sawed-Off and Retro Lancer gave some of my friends who don’t usually gel with Gears’ multiplayer a confidence boost that kept them playing Gears 3 so I appreciated them for that reason
My cousin and I grinded Gears 2 Horde mode for like 30 hours in a weekend so we could unlock the golden Retro Lancer skin during the build up to the release of Gears 3. God that was so fun. I loved Gears 3 multi.
One of my friends bought the PC port of Gears 1 just to unlock one of the Chrome starter weapon skins to complete the set. Can’t remember where the other ones came from. And yes, Gears 3 was insanely fun. I somehow had some ludicrous TDM K/D ratio, like 4 or something. Ahh, so much hatemail and accusations of having a modded controller
