Synopsis

The absolute devastation of Emergence Day has just fallen upon the planet Sera and the Locust menace lurks in the secretly terrified corners of your heart. You are Damon Baird, leader of the elite Kilo Squad and your courage may be all that stands in the way of total annihilation. You must navigate the besieged planet in a life-or-death effort to eradicate the enemy — but is this a fight you can win?

Gears of War: Judgment gives you a glimpse into the aftermath of Emergence Day, the most defining event in the history of the Gears universe, for the very first time in the most intense and riveting storyline. Follow the efforts of Kilo Squad through this campaign full of menacing enemies and challenging gameplay. The new Mission Declassification system keeps you engaged by revealing critical information upon the completion of achievements. Contend with unpredictable enemy types, timing and location with every new encounter thanks to the new Smart Spawn System. Play cooperatively with up to three friends on Xbox Live to destroy the Locust menace in the campaign, or experience the revolutionary new class-based competitive mode, OverRun, in which you play as Locusts or COG soldiers as they are pitted against each other. The saturated storyline of the Gears saga is enriched even further with numerous new gameplay modes and features in this prequel to one of the most riveting campaigns in gaming history.

Gears of War: Judgment - Xbox 360 (113 out of 143)
New things can be awesome!!
5
Posted by: from Oregon on 05/12/2013Pretty much GoW3 will a huge positive title update!! Co-Op campaign is freaking awesome! The new weapons added make it a little more strategic as well as add to the fun. I'm not a fan of Overrun ( the replacement of horde) it's 12 waves of defending a generator. 50 waves of crazy killing was waaay better!!! Overall great game though!

Posted by: from Cicero, NY on 05/11/2013good game, good online. although having only 5 maps for the first couple months was pretty stupid... but it had some more now, so its better. not many people play it online though. but still enjoy it.

Tried and true

Posted by: from Haymarket, Virginia on 05/07/2013Gears of War is a great series. Having said that, it has ran it's course. This game offers some sweet graphics and fun gameplay, but the story is a little weak and seems to go in too many circles. Multiplayer is great! Worth the money and has decent replay value.

Not Sure Yet

Posted by: from Arlington, VA on 05/06/2013So I am a die hard gears fan and have bought every version of Gears. I played 1 and 2 nonstop. 3 died down a little for me and this one I have not even touched since bioshock came out. It's not that it's bad or anything - it's just that I dont care that much. I think it is too soon since 3 came out that I am not geeking for it.

Lost some of its flair

Posted by: from Manchester, CT on 05/05/2013The lack of Horde Mode greatly reduces its playability while the story seems to lack continuity and flow. A great choice for those Gears die-hards but newcomers may find the game to be lacking.

Good filler

Posted by: from Las Vegas on 05/04/2013This is great filler game to hold you over till a new gears arrives on the next gen system. One good thing that was added and is new to gears is the declassified missions, they'll keep you playing more

Best Gears of War yet!
4
Posted by: from Tucson AZ on 04/30/2013The best gears of war yet! Combat system revamped and made more enjoyable. Great game to play with friends over Xbox Live in either story mode or multiplayer deathmatches. With that said I find it kind of boring to play it solo but I guess I'm spoiled after the fun I had with it over Xbox Live
