The Gears of War series has been a staple of the gaming world for over a decade, and with the upcoming Gears of War: E-Day multiplayer beta, fans are eagerly anticipating the next installment. But have you ever wondered what drew you to the series in the first place? For many, it was the original Gears of War game that introduced them to the gritty, cover-based world of Marcus Fenix and his crew.

The game's release coincided with the golden era of gaming, when the Xbox 360 was at the height of its popularity, and Gears of War was one of the console's flagship titles. The game's iconic Mad World trailer still sends shivers down the spines of many gamers, and its influence can still be felt in modern gaming.
