Did you buy Gears of War 3 on Tuesday and find yourself in need of a walkthrough to get past Part 1 of the campaign mode? Within 24 hours of this - pardon the pun - Epic game's launch, dozens of Xbox 360 gamers were uploading YouTube walkthrough videos, detailing how to get past the first ten minutes of the story mode. Some video walkthroughs were even in before the game's release date. Specifically, YouTube user theRadBrad broke out his high-definition Xbox 360 component cables to record a visually simulating strategy guide (below) and added his own commentary track to the mix.

The Gears of War 3 video walkthroughs on YouTube can help you get past the first ten minutes. But let's be honest, part 1 isn't that difficult compared to the rest of the game's chapters contained in five acts. Case in point, Alex Roth, who wrote Gaming Target's Gears of War 3 review, was able to get through the entire campaign mode in a weekend. More than anything, this video serves as a great trailer for Xbox 360 gamers who have yet to pick up the final chapter for Marcus Fenix and the Detla Squad team.

This glorified Уfirst 10 minutes of Gears 3Ф trailer demos the game's cinematic quality as it smoothly transitions from gameplay to cutscene back to gameplay again. That's what has made this third-person shooter series so great. So enjoy the stunning quality of the graphics and theRadBrad's humorous commentary with memorable quotes: УAs far as openings, that's some of the best sh-- I've ever seenФ and УAlright, I'm gonna get out there and [mess things] up.Ф

If this video and our Gears 3 review doesn't convince you to purchase the game, nothing will.
