About Gears of War: With over 40 million copies sold, Gears of War is one of gaming's most prosperous and acclaimed sagas. A divided society on the brink of collapse faces total extinction by the Locust, a monstrous threat from below.

The series has been critically acclaimed for redefining the tactical third-person and co-operative shooter genre and has one of gaming's most passionate fanbases.
