"Judgment's campaign twists the Gears formula in some interesting ways, but the rest of the package feels pretty thin for a full-priced retail product."

This might look the black sheep of the family, but it's actually worth it.

Right from the get-go you realize why this is called “Judgement”. Somehow, Damon Baird, one of the original four in the group since the first Gears, is being judged in a rather trumped-up trial. The f… Read more

A Well-Oiled Machine

I'm self-admittedly not the world's biggest Gears enthusiast. My reception to the Gears of War series as a whole has been fairly lukewarm. I saw the original game as a decent offering from Epic and th… Read more

Gears Of War: Judgment Review

Gears Of War: Judgement, brought to us by the people who gave us Bulletstorm, is the latest entry in the generation long Microsoft exclusive franchise. Gears Of War: Judgment, brought to us by the peo… Read more

Judgment wasn't necessary in the franchise, but works well regardless.

I’m an admitted Gears of War junkie. The accessible third person shooter series has been distilled over the last few years, and ultimately met a storyline wrap up in Gears of War 3. I spent a lot of t… Read more

Not deserving to be called a Gears of War Game!

Arcade style game. Red vs Blue on multi-player is a rip-off from Halo. Changing the thumb-pad control to change weapons to the (Y) button thus doing away with the Curb-Stomp is unforgivable! Lower qua… Read more

Judge, Jury, and Execution by Lancers

The idea of using a chainsaw attached to a gun to cut enemies into pieces might come across to some as a problem with modern videogames, and the concept of overly muscled dudes with soul-patches and g… Read more

I was ready to expect “just another Gears game,” except I was pleasantly surprised by what I got to play.

If you read my God of War: Ascension review, then you will know that I mentioned the strange spectacle that seems to be plaguing upcoming sequels, and the seeming lack of hype around them. If there wa… Read more

Gears of War: Judgement allows the gamer to take a peek at what happened before the Marcus Fenix story arc. In this game you'll get to play as four different characters, two you're very familiar with… Read more

Can Gears stay relevant? Yes, for now...

Gears of War: Judgment is the ugly duckling of the Gears of War family. A prequel that comes only 18 months after the trilogy wrapped up featuring supporting characters in lead roles is a recipe for d… Read more

Awwwwww, c'mon! No, seriously.

Say bye-bye to Locust skins and Hell No to Red vs Blue... I began my time with the famed Gears of War series a little late, sometime during 2009. Though to this day do I wish I could have been there o… Read more

Imitation or Innovation?

Though a little on the lean side in terms of content, Gears of War: Judgment is pretty good... provided you like third-person Halo games. Shooters are the the video-game equivalent of jazz music. To s… Read more

Not Your Normal Gears

Gears of War Judgment is the first in the apparently now-venerable AAA shooter not developed by Epic but, instead, by wholly owned studio People Can Fly (people behind the excellent Painkiller and Bul… Read more
