I mean they could do like Sony and upcharge you for each upgrade to Last of Us....
I bought Gears of War: UE on disk when it launched. I received a code for Gears of War: Reloaded. Originally, I believed only people who owned digital copies of Gears of War:UE would receive free copies of Reloaded.
Was wondering if the physical peeps would be able to partake, seeing as they have made every effort to stress "digital only" in all of their marketing material. I too have the disc, but then again I also have GPU so I'm good either way.
I can’t remember if I ever claimed Gears UE with the now defunct Games with Gold program. I’m also subbed to Gamepass Ultimate . Lastly I did play Gears 5 a week ago.
I only bought the disc on Xbox One too, but I got a code yesterday. Somehow.
I don't recall the game being a part of Games with Gold either - I know Gears 5 was. I wonder if they're just being extra generous for certain cases (i.e. Physical owners who are also subscribed to or have maintained a sub for extended time to Game Pass Ultimate?)
I got 1, and I'm pretty vocal about my disdain for Microsoft on here! 😂
There was a time when I supported them more on PC, but I finally lost my patience with them.
I'll check this out though since it's free, and I enjoyed Gears once upon a time ago.
I heard physical owners have gotten a code as well so you just might get lucky.
Yep - I responded above but I got a code as well despite being a physical owner of the game. There's definitely some other criteria besides what they've publicly said.
I own a physical copy ultimate edition and have it installed. No code :(
Could be because even though I owned the disc and installed it, the game ran through my old gamepass subscription because it shows 0 hours logged.
Could also be that I cancelled gamepass along time ago and do not subscribe to any tier. Or maybe just bad luck. Who knows 🤷
Gears of War: Reloaded is a celebration of one of gaming’s most iconic franchises—rebuilt with 4K resolution, up to120 FPS support, and fully modernized multiplayer. Featuring cross-play and cross-progression across platforms, this is the definitive way to experience the game that started it all.
I really don't think there's anything crazy about this. The first time it was a proper remake after 9 years. It has been 10 years since that remake and this is just a touch up for them to release it on Playstation, it would be worse if they DIDN'T remaster it. Also it's free for people that already own the ultimate edition on xbox. I don't see a problem here.
Never played the first one (I started with Gears 2) so I’ll be getting this. Good price point too. Already at #2 on PS Store pre-orders!
I´m gonna feel good popping some Steam and PS5 players heads wide open in 120fps!
Join us in blood! Welcome brothers!
So so good. Can't wait to feel every rip of that chainsaw on the Dualsense controller. Seriously trophy is mine and that first ever Gears of War platinum is going to be a thing of beauty.
A multiplayer beta test for Xbox Game Studios and The Coalition's third-person shooter, Gears of War: Reloaded, is possibly incoming.
I'm going to play Gears Ultimate Edition to get ready for Gears Reloaded. There's no wall canceling in Gears 1. I just hope PlayStation players new to the series have patience because you are going to start off struggling in multiplayer against us Gears OG’s. I'd been playing Gears since 2006. It’s a huge learning curve.
I couldn't care less. PS Only players new to the series are going to get cooked in crossplay multiplayer. Gears 5 removed the option to disable crossplay with PC players. Hopefully, they will give PS the option to disable crossplay if they are not comfortable to face Xbox/PC players
The MP isn't rocket science and PS players aren't gonna get cooked by Xbox players. It literally takes about 5 mins to get every aspect of the MP, it's not very technical. It's a great MP game and everyone will enjoy it.
This weekend and next. Hmm. Wasn’t gonna pre-order this early but I might reconsider.
Downloading it to my SX now.
