Ahh, action figures. Geek or not, you’ve just gotta love them. When I was a kid, these toys were mainly from movies and TV shows. Today, even video games get the miniature treatment. According to the National Entertainment Collectibles Association, action figures for Gears of War are due in stores in late spring of 2008.

I completely ignored Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune when it was being hyped since last year. After all, the game didn’t sound like a shooter and its title didn’t have any recall value for my brain cells. That is until I found out how awesome the shooting is. How awesome? Gears of War awesome.
Alas, the […]
I used to play a lot of Soldier of Fortune’s multiplayer because aside from the awesome gore, I get more bang (sorry) for the buck after finishing the single player campaign. Since the third installment is a mess and I don’t have a copy of part two, I was inspired to open the old box […]
There’s nothing wrong with borrowing certain minor elements from a few blockbuster titles every so often to add some zing to a game under development. But when you take everything that reminds people about said blockbuster, then you’ve got yourself a wannabe. Or a clone. Or a rip-off.
Dark Sector is such a game. Don’t believe […]
Don’t believe everything you read in the internet, even if they came from so-called reputable game websites like GameSpot, GameSpy, IGN, or Eurogamer. The reviews they’re churning aren’t always as “spot-on” as people say they are.
Case in point: The previously-released reviews for Gears of War’s PC version.
I took the time to read all […]
If you can’t get the software updates that Gears of War for the PC is asking for, then be prepared to crash, and often. You’ll crash so often that you’d want to burn your copy of Gears. The factors that could probably stop you is the amount of time it took you to get the […]
If you’ve been paying attention to this blog for some time now, then you may have noticed that FPS Rantings is currently having a fixation on Gears of War for the PC. It’s only fair to feature the GameTrailers review on Gears, but don’t say I didn’t warn you.

If you like to inflict more self-torture, try tweaking your new Gears of War for the PC. Normally, tweaking the game to get the best performance is a necessary exercise, especially when your net worth isn’t good enough to be announced in a magazine.
Well, Gears gives new meaning to torture.

Can you believe this? After taking forever to install, Gears of War for the PC is telling me to install more software updates on my PC. This time, the game wants me to get AMD Processor Driver for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 version (x86 and x64 exe) 1.3.2.16.
After downloading the update here, […]
If you’re cheap like me, then you’re still probably hanging on to your year-old rig even if Crysis or Gears have come out. I’m still hanging on to my Athlon 64, but was smart enough to put in a gig of RAM to run current shooters.
However, I never expected Gears’ installation to take this […]
I’m having a fantastic day. Why, you ask?
Because Gears of War for the PC has finally landed on our local shelves. Yes, the game is two weeks late and there’s a good chance that you already have one. But you know what? I’ll still walk you through Gears of War.
Why, you ask? Because […]
Zero Punctuation had a lot of things to say about Jericho. Enjoy the hate.
