By dogsounds So, Gears Of War was the 360’s kick-ass launch title, sort of (we’re not really going to count the lacklustre Perfect Dark Zero: Attack Of The Shiny People) and many have said that it did for this generation of Microsoft consoles what Halo did for the original Big Black Bugger™. Gamers wer...

By Daniel Duncan IF the rumor proves to be true, I’m not certain on the whole Conker portion.
