Different Style to an old great
This is an interesting addition to the gears series that has both its strengths and weaknesses. They do add a few weapons and enemies which is to be expected but there is nothing to get really excited about. They also add in extra challenges into campaign missions to add a little change of pace, but overall the story really isn't anything to compare to the games before it. It is still fun to play and more gears is always welcome, but the game kind of leaves the feeling that you were expecting more from it. The only real disappointment about the game is the multiplier. There are only like four maps in the base game without buying the overpriced season pass which gets old real fast. Overall I did enjoy the game for the $20 I paid for it, but I don't really see it being worth much more than that which is a shame for a series as good as gears.

Great co-op game...
This game acts as a prequel to the original Gears of War and does a good job of explaining certain untold circumstances of the original game. This outings story is told through an arcade mission style type presentation, and off putting as it first seems, it doesn't hurt the game at all. Certain mission add variable to each fight that adds replay value.

Any Gears fan will enjoy this game.
Gears of War: Judgement follows the back-story of Lt. Barid and "the Cole-train" before the first Gears of War game. The story is good, but I would've like them going a little farther back with it to where they first met and on day one of E-day. The new characters are interesting, but they really don't bring anything new to the table. The graphics are just as great as any other gears game and the game play is as well. Multiplayer is better than ever, but with a lack of maps, modes, and characters really dags it down. The Locust are only playable on one mode, which is a sad disappointment.
