Gears of War 3 - Reviews

9.1
based on 7 top critics

8.0
I was introduced to the Gears series shortly after I picked up my first Xbox 360. Before I played it, I was told it was going to be a gritty, bloody experience. I’d be inclined to agree with that assessment. Shortly after I finished the first game, Gears 2 came out and I put days worth of time into Horde, multi-player, and the co-op campaign. That being said, I figured that I’d be super excited to get back into the Gears world and mow down some Locust.

9.5
Gears of War 3 concludes an excellent trilogy with engrossing cooperative play, taut competitive action, and a masterful campaign.

10.0
Gears of War 3 is a fantastic follow-up that answers important questions about the nature of the Gears universe while backing it all up with an even bigger, better multiplayer suite.

9.0
Epic's epic epic ends epically

9.0
The third installment in Epic's cover-based combat series brings Marcus Fenix's Locust-lynching saga to a satisfying conclusion.

9.5
The Blockbuster Finale Millions Of Fans Are Craving

8.5
Epic's new opus is the over the top, curb stomping orgy of action and gore you expected, with dozens of features you didn't.
