Gears of War really worth getting?

[tom91]

I no the single player looks really good an all, but i hear its very short, and considering multiplayer is what keeps it going, and i dont get on multiplayer that often (even though cod is amazing) is there any point in actually buying it? or would it be better off being a rental to play the single player, then maybe get it cheaper or preowned after xmas.

I can't believe you're even asking this question.

It's a stupidly good game. Buy it now. I command you to.

I dunno, if he doesn't play MP, I don't see why he wouldn't want to rent it.

[tom91]

well i do play MP but not that often, because i cant really play the 360 while other people are watching TV or on the internet.

[Blaze Lord]

the TV's a complaint I sympathize with, but why don't you get a router?

[Sean <aLk!>]

i say yes it is worth getting, apparently the single player is something you will want to do again on diff difficulty levels aswell, and y cant u play MP while people watchin tv n on internet?????? and the co-op solo mode multiplayer looks good, me n true r gonna try it.

[linkofhyrule]

Yeah.. how can you play single player if the TV is being used but not the multiplayer?

If it's the internet that's a very easy fix. You can pick up a hub or something of the like for $10-20

[tom91]

yeah i need a router or something

[AK.]

is it that short of a game? how many levels are there?

[linkofhyrule]

There are 5 acts which are each divided into about 8 parts. It sounds like a lot, but apparently it's over in about 8 hours.

[Wriggy]

I'll probably get the game next year as I'm skint :'(
