GOW Review

Boy, we've been slackers on full game reviews. Here is one for GOW>
Graphics: The most stunning graphic games on the 360 to date. The lighting effects, the movements, rain drops, water movement, etc. . 9.9
Sound: Unreal. Guns are very cool, grunts are cooler. 9.9
AI: Playing on "don't hurt me" mode and the AI is good. Have gotten through a few levels and they flock to where you are. 9.8
Live: The best, smoothest, lack of lag games ever for the Xbox or Xbox 360 on live. One very cool thing they added is if you're playing single player missions, you can easily invite a freind to do co-op: 9.9
Playability: This is not your run and gun Halo. For doing a lot of stuff, there is a lot of strategy in this. You have to duck behind walls, hide, etc. EDIT - a cool feature is the rolling gameplay to cutscenes stream, it's seamless, and wonderful: 9.9.
Controls: This game made me add this in here, because there is an annoyance. When you run and hit an object, it does get annoying when you stick to it. It take some skill to run, controlling with left thumbstick and hitting A at the same time. 9.6
Overall: 9.8 This game is definately worth getting from a Live and single player standpoint. I played for about 4 hours on Saturday night with no lag at all, both in versus and co-op missions. This game will definately take Game of the Year honors.
