It goes without saying that Gears came into its own with part two; also known as 'the one where you could now stomp a dude's face into mush'. For three the ante was suitably upped by giving every weapon more of their own 'fatality'-style attacks, and you were free to mount your crawling opponent UFC-style to deliver some devastating punches that went on as long as you mashed the attack button. Needless to say, it was one hell of a glorious slaughter, and with Mortal Kombat X raising the bar in terms of sheer gore-filled brutality, it's likely the new console hardware will be powering some flying Locust head-chunks too.
