There are a lot of mixed emotions in the Gears of War community at the moment, with the impending release of the fourth instalment in the Gears franchise the fans appear to be split. Some are craving the change of direction that Gears of War Judgement threatens to bring to the multi-player aspect of the game and the other half are not so much so. This is understandable due to the amount of changes they‘re having forced upon them. Did Gears of War 3 drop the ball when it was supposed to be the touch down we were all hoping it would be?
For those who don't have time for massive open worlds or role-playing games with epic tales, these 15 games are worth checking out.
Gears of War 3 and Judgement servers have returned to their "updated" condition, adding several features, such as increased XP and more.
I currently play Gears 3 often, especially after the 60 FPS Boost. Gears of War is my favorite gaming franchise, and the Locusts are the coolest faction in history. Gears Judgment will always be a disgrace for not having the Locust in VS multiplayer.
GoW 3 and Judgement were the last installments before the series went woke and soulless. I'm level 50 in GoW 3 and LOVE it's multiplayer to death. It's just so crispy.
The Xbox 360 is one of the most successful consoles ever made, and the best games in its library are a huge part of why.
That is the most "normie" list that I ever saw. This does make some sense given the console in question, but still.
Sure, the list itself sucks. But that click-saver table-of-contents, every list should have that.
Might as well list it as the One's top twenty as well since all it had for games was backward compatibility.
I would say great article but in reality it just points out what every Epic forum goer has been saying pretty much since Gears 3's release.
If you got too vocal with it you got yourself banned as Epic didn't want to hear it, they were sticking with their misnomer that Gears 3 was the most polished Gears game EVER.
Sadly GOW:J is going in even more of the WRONG direction.
I think so. Gears 1 was descent but it got worse and worse. Gears 2 released in complete shambles with a multi player that just didn't work. Gears 3 was a huge disappointment for me. Gears of War Judgement is going in the completely wrong direction and the fans agree and you can tell by the complete lack of anticipation and hype for Gears Judgement. Not to mention that Cliffy B. is gone and won't be working on it is not a good sign either. They are killing the Gears franchise. The Epic forums were flooded with angry and disappointed fans who bought Gears 3 and wanted their money back and will not buy Judgement, including me.
Got tired of: roll, shoot shotgun, repeat.
Love how intense the single player is, tho.
I'm not aware of any huge Gears 3 backlash, maybe because I didn't pay much attention to the Epic forums, but I for one feel that Gears 3 is the best in the series. It's a shining example of how you should make a sequel.
Roll on Judgment!
Gears 1 was gaming nirvana. Dark, gritty shotgun battles. Gears 2, I will not defend. Released as a broken, laggy mess that took a few title updates to fix (6 last time I checked).
But Gears 3? Sure, the lancers are over-powered, but it is no doubt the most 'polished' one. Besides, most people only hated the game because they thought they were some 'leet' veterans who couldn't kill a newb with a sawed off. I mean come on, that gun has been nerfed to high hell and people still complain about it.
I use the gnasher, and believe it to be more over-powered than the sawed off, as I can wall bounce and kill a few people. Sawed off has 1 shot and 3-4 second reload. I am at 'level 400' btw, and have played this game for hundreds of hours. Judgment looks pretty weird, will borrow it before I buy it. Gears 3 was fine, and I didn't mind that more casuals jumped on board, as there were just new people to kill.
