    Gears of War: Judgment

    • Awful game if you love the original Gears of War trilogy
    • well Gears of War was my favorite game until this load of crap can out
    • But if you like the REAL Gears of War game-style, you are going to hate it just as much as I do
    • Gears of War 2 and 3 did a good job introducing and improving this popular game type and now is completely stripped away and replaced with Survivor which sort of like horde but with a class system (which is pretty cool
    • Gears is successful so why change one of things that made it successful, money
    • GEARS should be better than this!
    • Gears 2 introduced Horde Mode which was my favorite game mode to play online with friends.
    • But Gears, like any other shooter, has always been about the multiplayer
    • I have been an avid Gears fan since the beginning.
    • I absolutely loved Gears 1-3.
    • After you finish the first 6 Chapters, you unlock Aftermath, which is actually a cool Gears storyline where the characters battle through hostile territory to acquire a ship.
    • This disappoints me, because I have enjoyed all the Gears of War games.
    • Like all franchises, Gears of War has changed over time
    • He definitely likes the Gears of War series and this is no different
    • If you're only going to pay 5-20 dollars for this game and you love the first 3 Gears of War, this game is amazing.
    • I don't think the campaign was as good as Gears
    • This seems like it should be Gears of war 1
    • It seems watered down in many ways, from the inclusion of more generic multiplayer traits like class-based systems and large, uninspired maps to the exclusion of classic Gears of War staples like horde mode and a wide array of perfectly structured, small scale maps designed to promote bottleneck firefights in competitive modes, it lacks anything distinctive
    • Still, Judgment, even though it changes a few key things, offers a lot to die hard Gears
    • Hence the outrage from series fans: "it's Gears but not GEARS."Fans of the series should still get this game, but as the price drops over time
    • Buy it if you like the direction Gears is headed
    • They should have just waited and made a proper Gears for the Xbox One
    • They ruined Gears
    • Judgment did teach me one thing, and that is to not pre-order games anymore, even such highly-praised titles as Gears.
    • it isn't as good as Gears 3 IMO
    • Playing this after Bioshock Infinite is even more worse - previous Gears titles could have easily followed that title up and not felt disappointing, this just feels blah in comparison
    • It's still a great Gears game - just a different take on what we're used to.
    • Gears of War is famous for
    • If you enjoyed Gears of War, you are going to get a kick out of this
    • Hours of great play....just as good as the prior Gears of Wars games.
    • So in conclusion, if you enjoy competitive multiplayer, you'll enjoy Gears of War Judgment
    • The single player is as good as any other Gears of War game
    • Gears 3 kept me entertained till the last day.
    • But with the introduction of the four classes along with their unique four support skills, Gears has finally mastered horde.
    • Don't get me wrong, I love Gears of War
    • But with the introduction of the four classes along with their unique four support skills, Gears has finally mastered horde.

    • I love and hate Gears 3, but it still is the best of all.
    • Overall, Judgment is a fair Gears of War game
    • The Gears MP seems to have just slowed down more and more over time.4
    • with familiar controls its easy to get into the game and just play, really no need for a manual as the game didnt come with one (Digital Down Loads suck) but if your a seasoned GEARS Vet like me and my Wife are its fast and easy to pick up and go get some Grubs
    • If you like Gears, you'll like this
    • Gears Of War 3 was so much better
    • Honestly, this is my favorite Gears entry yet.
    • Subjective, but for me not as crisp as Gears 3 (for example the Hammer of Dawn, absolutely does not carry the punch and melty flavor it had in previous games, you may even argue that it was better in Gears 2) Fun? Subjective, but for me palpably absent
    • Rather than continue with what made Gears such a great experience, the developers decided to just make it into another Halo and COD clone.
    • Gears of War 3 was extremely fun before you had to buy map packs for dedicated servers
    • I am not "one of those Gears fans", you know, the one's that refuse to believe that there was a good Gears game since GoW1
    • Less like Gears of War and more like Call of Duty
    • Aftermath feels much more like classic Gears games since the levels aren't sectioned of to the degree of the main story, but it's also quite short (I think RAAM's Shadow was longer than Aftermath)
    • I want to start off by saying I love Gears Of War as a franchise, I have 1, 2, and 3(my favorite) so far
    • Overrun is what Gears of War 3's beast mode should've been, and it's the one reason that'll keep me coming back to Judgment even when I like Gears of War 3's multiplayer far more
    • Honestly, Gears of War 3 is better than this.
    • Gears of War Judgement is a HUGE disappointment if you're an old Gears of War fan.
    • I loved Gears of War and Gears of War 3.Gears of
    • Gears of War one was very fun
    • Not that it's a bad map, but why would I pay for this if I've already had it before on BETTER Gears games?)
    • First let me start by saying that I have been an avid Gears fan and player since Gears 1.
    • It simply uses epic as the publisher and ruins Gears for fans.
    • I'll begin by saying that I have played and loved the original Gears of War trilogy.
    • If you're a die hard Gears of War player, and buy this game because you've played the previous ones, lemme tell you that this game is much more different
    • Even my friend who is a die hard Gears fan doesn't even like the
    • I thought Gears 2 was just as good if not better, and 3 was a worthy entry in the series, and that it was a fitting END
    • i still like GEARS
    • I have played Gears 1,2 and 3, and personally like this game
    • ....it killed Gears for me.
    • and I enjoyed just as much as Gears 1,2,3.(Amazon shipped it to me quick 5 stars for shipping)Pro's Good Single Player (opinion)Con's Removed a lot of favorite multiplayer modes.
    • Overall I enjoy the Gears
    • I use to be an avid Gears player
    • I have seen posts deleted minutes after being postedNot able to pick up enemy guns at most times during single player and many times during multiplayer modes forcing a frustrating style of ammo managementSurvival mode is no replacement for horde mode, it's not even close and insulting to even suggest itMultiplayer spawns can throw you anywhere with enemies popping up behind you at any momentmultiplayer is now human against human instead of locust vs human (COD influence again)Campaign is very short, if you are gaming non stop you can complete it in a day on hardthe additional optional skins are expensive which would not matter as much if the game provided some value and you were happy with your purchase and Gears experienceI am sure there are more detailed explanations on Amazon regarding how bad Gears Judgment is
    • The gameplay feels overall just not as good as Gears 3
    • And so, Gears of War 3, here comes another fun few years
    • I really hope this doesn't mean that Gears of War will become like many other games that keep getting released just to have a game and have very little value added to them
    • Ultimately, if you liked previous Gears of War games, you'll feel right at home playing the story mode
    • As well as Gears Of War Judgement, they will say that Judgement is better hands down

    • Epic has ruined Gears of War's originality because of the change in gameplay mechanics
    • Gears of War 3 is so much better
    • It's the worst Gears game, but not terrible
    • Blame People Can Fly, they did this to our beloved Gears
    • This game seemed like an attempt at Call of Duty Multiplayer rather than the classic Gears of War multiplayer i had hoped for
    • Gears wasn't ever strong on storyline,
    • Also unfortunately, Gears 3 is completely dead, so you can't even go back to that
    • This was a fun ride short as it may be still cool Gears mythos, liked seeing more back stories.
    • Gears of War has never been incredible as far as delivering memorable characters, but I had some fun seeing the interaction between Baird, Sam, Cole, and others in the previous games
    • All in all this isn't a horrible game, and I think some of the reviews are a little harsh, but as a Gears Of War game this is probably the worst one overall in the series
    • Finally, The AI Locust rival the first Gears of War in how much damage they can soak up from your team’s firing lines, meaning it is not uncommon to empty an entire Lancer clip into an AI Locust, only to have him in the
    • It's the worst Gears game, but not terrible

    • I thought about it though and came to this conclusion: Gears of War 3 did Horde pretty much perfectly
    • Ruined the Gears of War franchise for
    • The Gears of War series has just been fantastic for uniqueness, it's gameplay mechanics, graphics, sounds, weapons, characters, and story
    • This is by far the WORST Gears
    • GEARS OF WAR JUDGMENTBut this Gears of War Judgment is like a dumbed down version of what I have played in the past
    • Like many of my fellow reviewers, I am a huge Gears of War fan
    • You have to protect E-
    • I was not thrilled with ANY of the games in this series, as you die in EVERY section played and the chainsaw bayonet fails practically EVERY time I tried to use it on an enemy ... in all 3 games
    • I'm not as angry as
    • I'm still dumbfounded as to what just happened with this game.
    • All in all, the campaign should satisfy gears fans and as for action lovers who want a bunch of uglys surrounding you with bullets going everywhere, you people will love this
