Gears of War: Ultimate Edition brings back the action and excitement we enjoyed in the original with improved graphics and a fun gaming experience.
A fun and visually impressive trip down memory lane, even if some of the shooting mechanics feel dated
Gears of War: Ultimate Edition features ample improvements made to the original game throughout, making it a familiar but fresh trip down memory lane.
At the end of the day if any triple-A franchise deserves the remastered treatment, Gears of War fits the bill. It spawned a legion of devotees. Even though the campaign has shown its age, the multiplayer still can compete with today's shooters.
