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.

    I remember playing GOW when it first released for the original XBOX 360 and I was in love. They did an amazing job updating the graphics. It is so nice to relive the epic story on the XBOX One.

    Gears of War is a must for Xbox One owners. With an interesting art style that sort of mimics a 2000 AD comic plus engaging gameplay. It's also a value for what it's priced right now.

    This game is to complete my gears of war collection until they release some new stuff. This game is almost as essential for xbox people. I hope everybody plays this game

    I haven't played the original Gears in about 10 years so playing this again was a great trip down memory lane. The game still holds up and like always its best played in co op with a friend.

    Not Very Good

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

    Despite being remade after nearly 10 years, the original Gears of War doesn't hold up as a quality title. While the graphics quality has improved, the game still suffers from the same problems that it had in its original release. It has poor AI, clunky mechanics and controls, and while having varied level design, I found that the changes come across as gimmicks that serve to only frustrate the player. While at its core, the Gears of War franchise is not bad, this game's preceding sequels serve as a much better representation of the COG's struggle against the horde.

    If you played the Xbox 360 version you are in for a visual surprise it is a treat for your eyes. It also includes a level only available on pc. A great game only made better. A must play.

    Yes this is the same old Gears with more streamlined controls and obvious visual upgrades... There is some added content but the issues that persisted in the original especially with AI still are present in this... Get it cheap you will like it

    I was a huge fan of the series when it came out. I am healthily skeptical of remastered because they have the potential to not be worth much. This one is assuredly worth purchasing

    I haven't played through the full campaign yet, but it's just as fun as all the other GOW games...plus you can play online with friends also. Worth it if you get it on super sale.
