Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the vastly improved graphics and the updated multiplayer experience in Gears of War. The remaster is also praised, along with the game's story and additional content. While some players found the controls and artificial intelligence challenging, the positive feedback on the visuals, gameplay, and overall value outweighs these concerns.

    Outstanding but...

    This remake of Gears 1 is just a beautiful game packaged with a revamped SP & MP. However the multiplayer portion has a few bugs that need fixing. The single player is a great playthrough, I just wished it was at 30fps, only the multiplayer runs at 60fps. For $40 you cannot go wrong.

    Not a good game. I didn't like online game play. Didn't even check if it had a campaign before I traded it in.

    You should definitely buy this game if you're a Gears of War fan. The company that made Gears of War is including a bonus for people who buy this game and play it on Xbox Live between August 25 and Dec 31st 2015. You will get the original Gears of War collection from Xbox 360 to play on your Xbox One when they release the backward compatibility for Xbox One in the Fall FOR FREE, but only if you play on Xbox Live during the above dates. (Includes Xbox 360 titles Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Gears of War 3 and Gears of War: Judgment) Source: https://gearsofwar.com/en-us/games/gears-of-war-ultimate-edition/backwards-compatability

    Been many years since I have played this game on the Xbox 360, this version is just as good, better even. They reworked everything (except the VA) and it looks and plays better, it was nice to be able to play the PC only content. I recommend this to anyone who want a great TPS or is a fan of the games on the 360, getting this now for only $40 (price as of right now) is a good deal and if you play the game before the end of the year you get all 4 Xbox 360 titles as downloads that are BC on your Xbox One, great deal :)

    This game is going to be awesome! I remember playing the original release in 2006 and now I can look forward to the Ultimate Edition of the original Gears of War... Cannot Wait. The Golden Hunter pre order bonus skin for multiplayer is great .

    Graphics are clean and plays well but I have noticed that the game glitches at times when I'm playing. Other than that the game is as amazing as it was on the 360

    A great reimagining of a classic

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Gears of War Ultimate Edition doesn't really alter the original story in any way, save for including the previously PC exclusive story missions. However, the multiplayer has been tweaked and polished to a nice sheen, and the graphical upgrades are more than welcome. This is a great entry point for those new to the franchise, and a great way for series veterans to revisit a classic. The only downfall? Some consistency issues in the online multiplayer can hinder the experience quite a bit. Otherwise, this is a great way to revisit a classic.

    A Trip Down Memory Lane.

    I remember playing the original Gears Of War back in 2006. It was the first game I owned for my Xbox 360. I loved every minute of it. I decided to purchase the Ultimate Edition on Black Friday for $19.99 and I am pleased with this upgrade. Granted, it's not a WOW this is truly next gen moment type game but if you enjoyed the original gears then I really think that you are going to like revisiting this old friend. Solid visuals and voice acting across the board.

    Not what was expected

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was swindled into the belief as many that this included gears 1, 2, and 3. That was not the case. We played this one time. The ironic thing is that xbox gave us all the gears games for free one month later due to the backwards compatability. If you just want to experience the remastered first gears, this is for you. If you were expecting more, you may be disappointed.
