Short Pause: "So I had every intention of streaming of just one hour but instead, I got completely enthralled with the gameplay and overall presentation of Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, and went on to stream for 2.5 hours instead! I'ver really enjoyed my time with this game and it further cements my stupidity for passing on the Xbox brand before this gen. I'd even go as far as to say that I prefer the Gears of War campaign and gameplay over the Halo series (so far anyways) by quite a large margin. The control scheme may seem a little dated compared to today's standards, but even then, the gameplay itself is tight and responsive, which was really surprising. I"m really looking forward to finishing through the campaign in order to prepare myself for Gears of War 4 next year. I may even fire up Gears of War 2 via backwards compatibility later this fall when the digital version becomes available; I've heard from many around the Short Pause offices that it's the best entry in the series."
Legend has it that this list of the best Xbox One Co-Op games is so good, it may require four people to fully enjoy.
Daily Video Game writes: "CDKeys is featuring various digital titles on sale with huge discounts for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC gamers right now! The savings vary depending on what game you want to purchase, but you could save up to 90% off of them, and that's pretty awesome."
The issue with these sites is that 'some people' buy keys in sales with stolen credit cards, then you buy the game from them...Then the company get the chargeback so it actually costs the game company money. I'm not convinced this is a vast majority though as pretty sure if it was a fraud site it woud just be closed down. Only issue I've had with an invalid key was for splinter cell blacklist for 38p. Pretty sure that is penny fraud. i.e. most people won't bother disputing as it's not worth it.
IGN sit down with members of The Coalition to discuss how Gears esports has grown over the years.
Damn it looks good, cant wait to try it
Once I get back from PAX, I'm grabbing this.
For an older game, it looks like Coalition did a great job at brining it up to date for the Xbox One. I've never played this series before but it definitely looks like theres no shortage of action or thrills here. Would be cool if all the sequels got the same treatment.
Getting the Gears Bundle soon, with an extra controller and minecraft for $349. Cant wait.
