This Achievement in Gears of War 3 Lam-Bent Me Over

Welcome to the final game of the Marcus Trilogy, and supposedly the HARDEST game to complete on insane difficulty. Will I be able to persevere, complete this campaign solo and get one of the hardest achievements in Gears of War, or will I cry like a baby? Tbh it'll probably be both...

[@martymcfly6914]

Keep in mind there are still achievements in gears franchise which only 0,03% of players have unlocked😅 imagine you have to play this again without dying means basically if you die you have to start the whole campaign again from the biginning these 2 are brutal in gears 4 & 5

[@BlackGoId]

It’s great to see gamers returning to the franchise to finish it on insane mode. Heartwarming and entertaining.

[@dominicbalcaceres6618]

Bro that last mission me and my buddy were struggling for Soo long like 5 hours and I called my other buddy to hop on and join us on that Casual Difficulty and clip Myraah and dude we were very surprised how fast she died like 😂 he said he used to 2 clips with the lancer to get her off the machine😂

I did it solo too, but ten years ago my reflexes were ATTUNED to gow. Now it would be a horrible pain to do. But im borderline insanely patient now when motivated, so it should counter out. Will have to do a reryn of 1 2 3 and judgement

[@Sodaextreme1]

I beat it solo. Hardest part by far for me was Griffin tower. Torque bows out the ass, a bunch of lament, and myrahh showing up didn’t help. Very frustrating.

[@VaporStrikeX2]

Oddly enough, one of my hardest parts was the stadium bridge section. I probably never grabbed the boomshot so I was pretty much just lancering everything, and my god those gunkers tore me a new ass every time.

The trilogy has been completed (for now) Fun fact: around the 18 minute mark, Snam picks up a Longshot and very quickly dies afterwards. In fact, he did not have the Longshot for even 5 seconds. He had it for almost 3 seconds.

[@Dawn_Tay]

The dlc campaign for this one was pretty unique, would be nice to see you play it.

[@Snamwiches]

I haven’t actually done it before so I’ll have to check it out when I can!

@@Snamwichesit’s very very fun and it’s short enough where it’s not a huge investment but gives additional lore to the franchise (mainly about RAAM, Minh and Tai) I think you would enjoy it and the achievements in it are fun. You can play as RAAM btw! He’s a GIANT

This video made me realize I would love to watch Snam play Mass Effect. Especially since he can't help but be the good guy in playthroughs, playing the game on insanity would be nice.

[@Havrrics]

Interesting you mention Mass Effect, the locust queen in GoW is voiced by Dr Chakwas.

[@LeeC24535]

I remember beating gears 1 & 2 on Insane difficulty, holy moly was it hard, ridiculous even in some parts but god it was fun. This franchise deserved so much better, GoW 1 is my favourite game of all time still, so many fond memories. GoW 1, 2 & 3 are masterpieces.

[@VV-js4vd]

Kinda impressed how good Gears of War 3 still looks. I was replaying 1 through Ultimate Edition, and then I saw your journey through 2, so seeing this game running again was a surprise! It's extremely close to the Unreal Engine 4 look. Also, good embellishments on the Series S and X, fps boost and all

[@MalikATL]

I most recently got into gears last summer, got a RGH Xbox for 80 bucks. gears 3 is probably my favorite one in the series probably won’t play the newer ones cause it’s kinda of pointless owning a newer Xbox when you have a PC/PS5.

[@VV-js4vd]

@@MalikATL fortunately The Coalition does a great job with Unreal Engine 4 games on PC, so Gears 4 and 5 look and run great there

[@staingangCEO]

The games aged greatly

[@steelbear2063]

​​@@VV-js4vdI recently bought used Gears of War 4 for Xbox and it had digital codes for GoW 1-3 and Judgement, and they were somehow not used. So I bought 5 games for the price of one basically

[@JGXK_]

I’ve got every single achievement in Gears of War 3 and Snam let me tell you I feel your pain. I did the campaign on Insane whilst playing solo as well. Only later on did I find out about Arcade mode where you can get stuff like infinite ammo, super active reload etc😂

[@DulceDul217]

What WHAT???? 😢😢😢

[@devbyrd6127]

The only way I could do insane was arcade mode😂 infinite ammo helped so much when everything else kills you so fast

[@DulceDul217]

@@devbyrd6127 that would've been SO MUCH EASIER, I've done it insane solo a couple of times but only because at the final boss it glitches or something and no additional Theron guards spawned the third time

Wish I could keep your positive attitude during these campaigns and will definitely be watching more videos!

I remember soloing this as a kid so long ago, and I remember very specific parts that were so difficult for me. Hijacking the gas barge, gunker on the bridge, brothers to the end, the entirety of the submarine segment, and the Queen's boss fight. It feels very relieving to know that not only was I right for thinking this was as difficult as it was, but that there's others that struggle on the same points I did. Congrats on beating the game on insane! Wear that medal proudly!

This game was literally my childhood, returning school to ask my uncle if I could use his Xbox360 and play (and die) a lot of Gears, it was my first full videogame ever, I legit cried when Dom died (I was like 7) + I had a lot of nightmares with the game, lmao, I love Gears 3, best game ever (at least in my heart)

[@Evilshtt353]

Great video. During my latest Gears series playthrough on Insane, the mortar part in Gears 3 at the resort, after the initial wave was dealt with, Anya literally just ran all the way to the mortar guy and chainsawed him which allowed me to bypass fighting the next triggered spawn while the mortar is shooting at me. In all my playthroughs throughout the years, I have NEVER seen that happen before and it gave me a good laugh. Will be fun to see Gears 4 and 5. Theres a select few sections that give me nightmares to this day in Gears 4 on Insane/Inconceivable. One part in particular is just rediculous and caused some thrown controllers.

[@soupgirl1871]

God the fucking Snatcher parts in Gears 4 on Insane difficulty pissed me off so goddamn much

[@TheNerdstalgicPodcast]

Gears 3 is the only gears campaign I've completed on insanity, and even then it was in co-op campaign with sometimes just 2 of us, and 4 for the hardest parts! It took us 2 months but definitely worth it 😂

[@ATrueOttoman]

Within the last month because of your vid’s I went back and played through GOW 1-3 and GOW remastered on Insane. Was a ton of fun solo but definitely some hard parts but well worth it.

[@siavashparsae6918]

Even before watching the video I have to say kudos on the title. I might be a little biased being a Gears of War fan and knowing the lore, but to me it was absolutely perfect.

[@Nephilim_JR]

I dont know if anyone had mentioned this but if youre using the torque bow against the armoured kantus it will one shot headshot it when you stun it. Its a little late now since there isnt gonna be anything like that in future games but the torque bow is insane on insane difficulty against most enemies if you hit their criticals.

[@Rkguerra12]

Honestly aside from the final Myrrah fight this was one of the easier campaigns on Insane mode ONLY if you do in Arcade mode since you can turn on infinite ammo, double damage active reloads, etc… but regular solo Insane mode it’s brutal lol

[@BobbyBurber]

Snam, I have to say, after watching your Gears 1 Insane quest, I tried it myself and I was surprised on how fun it actually was, right after that, I tried Gears 4. If you thought 2-3 were hard, Gears 4 made me cry at multiple moments because of the different enemies you encounter that one shot you. I did 4 on insane and I was broken after. I want to try and beat it on inconceivable, but that will just make me lose my mind. So, I would love to see you try and beat Gears 4 on Insane or Inconceivable solo and see how much pain you go through. I love your videos and keep up the great work!❤

@@darknessends127 You're so lucky. I remember that boss so well, and a bit of the last boss as well. LOL, not sure why my playthrough was more opposite (the places the KZbinr got really frustrated in, I didn't really find all that difficult) in terms of difficulty at places. Maybe it's the way I play I guess! I'll admit that boss made me fear the rest of the game. I like to think it made me better, so the rest of the game was easier.
