NL: There was a long period in my life where I felt I needed violence in my games to keep me interested. I craved the headshot, the sound of sword meeting flesh, the crunch of fists slamming into bone. If I didn't have those things, then the game was childish. Built for little kids. Not for me, a grown man who needed to see people hurt to know he was playing serious games for serious players. This was where I was at back in 2007, playing Gears of War on my new Xbox 360 and feeling nothing but regret for my Wii purchase.

Short Pause: "While I had a chance to remedy this last fall, the one Xbox franchise I was always most disappointed I hadnt yet played was Halo. Gear of War has its dedicated supporters, but as an avid fan of shooters and sci-fi themed stories, Master Chief was always the one sitting in the back of my mind, subtly prodding me to eventually take up arms and bring down the Covenant. Always hearing about how epic Chiefs tale was is why I was so excited to finally experience the series with the Master Chief Collection. Thats not to say I didnt have any interest in the Gears of War franchise; I am well aware of its storied past and fervent following. I just wasnt sure if there would be enough depth to the characters, or the story for that matter, to really hook me and keep me engaged by the time I eventually got around to trying it. Lets be honest, just by glancing at the cover art featuring Marcus and company, it could easily be assumed this is nothing more than a mindless shooter....

Quote: "Gears of War on Xbox 360 was the quintessential cover shooter, and Gears of War: Ultimate Edition brings that to the Xbox One. It really is as simple as this: If you enjoy this sort of game, you probably already own it. If not, but you're considering it, go ahead. Otherwise give it a skip. You're not going to miss a whole lot if you've played it before. "

You may have noticed a certain marketing pattern being deployed by Microsoft HQ over the summer, and it comes in the form of a repeated assertion that the current line-up of Xbox exclusives marks the the greatest games lineup in Xbox history. Its a bold statement, and we wondered whether such a claim was actually true. Of course, its all down to opinion; if you dont enjoy Halo, Gears or Fable, for instance, then youre probably too busy playing a PlayStation to even bother arguing against such proclamations. Nonetheless, lets have a look at the line-up for Xbox over the next year and see if theres any bite behind the bark, so to speak.
