Me finishing the Submarine level: 🤢 ah geez 🤮 aww man 😵‍💫

Don't have a ton to say about Gears 3, it was (surprisingly) the easiest of the trilogy, and my least favorite, particularly because of its disdain for heavy weaponry. In the previous games, certain ammo crates could reload your Boomshot or your Torque Bow. But no more! Even the Mulcher got its magazine nerfed from 500 to 200. Maybe the devs realized the game was already too easy and they had to take away extended access to the big toys so you didn't just breeze through it, idk. On the plus side, the Hammerburst got an aim-down-sights view and actually felt useful this time, but in general this didn't feel as good to play as its predecessors. Onward to Judgment!
