This book was good for my basic gaming needs. Im not an extended life game player. I only wanted to find out how to get all of the COG tags and this guide helped me do that. It also gave me some guidance on how to beat General RAAM on Hardcore difficulty. I would recommend to anyone looking to get all they can out of the game.

Gears of War strategy guide help find all the COG tags in the game. Now all there is left to do is play co-op.

i don't know about you, but when i get stumped at a game, it really drives me crazy. it can be really frustrating. thats why i appreciate a good stradegy guide like the one here for gears of war. i was able to find 20 of the 30 cogs on my own, but i never would have found the rest if it wasn't for this guide. very well written. clear concise details. excellent pictures to go along with the written word. i think it's definately worth buying. i did.

If you need help with this game, or just need some reading material, this is an excellent guide by BradyGames!

I ordered the Gears of War Guide along with my game at the same time. I got a peak at it at a Best Buy, but Amazon's price was cheaper. This book goes through every detail of each stage you are going (fighting) through. It gives you step by step instructions on the best way to fight back or outwit the Locust Horde no matter where you are. I am not a professional gamer, so I probably would get stuck on some level more than someone else who has always played these kinds of games. Nevertheless, the game itself is not so complicated that you wouldn't be able to figure most things out. However, there are times when you just don't know what to do, or how to move on, that is when your guide comes in. It gives you awesome maps, shows you were COG tags are, where more ammunition is, and even has pictures from the game to give you hints of your exact spot. Honestly, I don't know how they could've done this guide any better. You won't be reading it every other minute while your playing mind you, but there will be times when it will just be an invaluable reference tool, especially if you are more of a infrequent gamer like me.
