Gears of War for the 360 (light review)

OK I'm going to have to update this again because I've only played about 5 hours of it, but the game is pretty impressive so far.

Of course the graphics are sick...

But the reason to buy this game, from what I've seen so far, is the Online co-op on Xbox Live. My buddy and I were a little frustrated by the unfamiliar controls for the first hour or so, but then we completely lost track of the time and just ROLLED through the dumbass plot.

A couple frustrations:

- on Co-op, it doesn't save a copy of the game progress on both people's hard drives. So basically, if you play for 10 hours with your friend but it only saves on his HD, you're going to have to play on his game save next time or else start all over again. SUXX00RZb
- it seems like you run out of ammo a LITTLE more than you should sometimes

Just early reflections from me. But this is the game that I think I'll be playing until Halo 3...
