       Gears of War is an Xbox 360 exclusive that blends tactical action
        with survival horror, thrusting gamers into a harrowing story of
        humankind's epic battle for survival against the Locust Horde, a

        planet.
       In this third-person tactical action/horror game, players live and
        breathe the role of Marcus Fenix. A disgraced former war hero,
        Marcus seeks personal redemption as he leads his fire team against
        an onslaught of merciless warrior fiends. Gamers immerse themselves
        in an experience so intensely emotional and gut-wrenching that
        playing will be like controlling a blockbuster action movie.
       "Gears of War" utilizes the breathtaking new Unreal Engine 3 to
        create cinematic, high-definition visuals for a gaming experience
        that truly ushers in the next generation. Gamers will experience
        beautifully rendered interactive environments and characters so
        lifelike they appear to be made of flesh and bone. The next-
        generation visuals create a world in which the tiniest detail is
        vivid in the largest battle.
       "Gears of War" unites next-generation technology with classic,
        emotional storytelling and a revolutionary tactical combat system,
        engrossing the gamer in a horrifying epic story of war and
        survival.

   Massively scoped worlds, memorable characters and an epic story line
   play out like an intense and unsettling blockbuster action film.
   Dramatic in-game camera work and a compelling story bring the brutal,
   emotionally charged experience to life. Gamers control Marcus Fenix and
   his fire team as they pit advanced human technology against the
   overwhelming and horrific Locust Horde.
* Fire team co-op action
   All game modes, levels and scenarios are designed for cooperative fire
   team play (AI or human). For the first time, AI teammates are
   indiscernible from human players. They move intelligently, take orders
   effectively, and seek cover and defend themselves when necessary. Gamers
   will experience richer cooperative gameplay than ever, through unique
   characters that require cooperation to survive.

   physics-integrated animation system that has them truly reacting
   intelligently to events as they unfold around them.
* Intense and hyper-realistic combat
   In "Gears of War" the battlefield is a lethal place -- to foolishly
   stand out in the open is to die. To survive, gamers can create and take
   cover using interactive and dynamic environments, suppress the enemy
   with blindfire, and use their weapons and teammates to outwit and
   outfight their terrifying enemies.
* Next generation Xbox Live action
   "Gears of War" will embody the next-generation Microsoft Xbox Live
   experience and extend it even further. Gamers will be able to experience
