  Book Information

Emergence Day is coming with this amazing collaboration between Microsoft Game Studios and Epic Games, bringing players a game that is not played - it is experienced!

Gears of War is a third-person tactical action/horror game developed by Epic Games exclusively for Microsoft Game Studios and the Xbox 360 video game system.

As Marcus Fenix, players fight a war against the immense Locust Horde, which not only out powers but outnumbers them, their squad, and the entire force of the Coalition of Ordered Governments.

This the only game to blend a deep and disturbing story of human survival against an endless mass of nightmarish creatures, a next-generation tactical combat system, and unsurpassed visuals and special effects.

The story unfolds as a ragtag group of soldiers use every last ounce of strength to survive the onslaught from the forces of evil, which begins on the historic Emergence Day.

Gears of War is team-oriented because the Epic designers know that no war is fought alone. As a result, increased emphasis is placed on cooperative multiplayer - success cannot be achieved by going at it alone.
