Gears of War 3 reviews are in!

/

Gears of War 3 is days away and reviews from all the big sites are in. Overall, almost close to all reviews give the last Gears of War game a near perfect scores and giving a lot of praise to the campaign. Excited for the release? I am.

Here's a list of some scores:

Game Informer - 95/100

IGN -  9/10

Eurogamer - 8/10

G4 - 5/5

Gamespot - 9.5/10

Joystiq - 5/5

Gametrailers - 9.4/10

Seems like Gears of War 3 is getting praise in every aspect. Campaign, multiplayer, story, and of course gameplay. This is definitely living up to the hype. This game is definitely a must buy for any Xbox 360 owner and will be inside your system for a long time. There's a lot to look forward to. Question is, which one will you jump in first? Horde mode? multiplayer?, or the campaign that can be played either split screen or co-op. Gears of War 3 is just around the corner but it feels like its taking forever.

If someone needs to get updated on the events of the Gears of War story, here's a link to the game's timeline. Thanks Epic Games.

A new trailer for Street Fighter X Tekken has emerged from this year's TGS(Tokyo Game Show), and compared to the other video that was released prior to the start of TGS, this one reveals four new characters and a couple of new game modes for Street Fighter X Tekken.

The four new characters are Rolento and Zangief for Street Fighter and Heihachi and Lili for Tekken. They actually mention a story for Street Fighter this time around and reveal a couple of new modes like 2 on 2 duel battles, Scramble Mode(which is just CHAOS), plus an online training mode so you can practice with a friend while waiting for fight requests.

They also started talking about Pandora, which makes you sacrifice your partner to give your other character a boost and look badass(Akuma style). The story of Street Fighter X Tekken also revolves around this Pandora device which i'm guessing they will start talking about in the future. Take a lot at the trailer below.
