    EN:
    The weakest game in the entire series. A complete arcade. Bad characters, extremely repetitive missions and terribly bad challenges and MP mode.

    SRB:
    Najslabija igra u celom serijalu. Potpuna arkada. Loši karakteri, izuzetno repetativne misije i užasno loši izazovi i MP mod.

    This game sucks, man. It just sucks. The star collecting system sucks, the declassified mission objectives are just completely unfair sometimes, the squad AI is dumber than a bucket of water and the story is so poorly written. This game shouldn't exist and the guys who made it should feel bad.

    Dans l'absolu, si on ne peut (plus) porter que deux flingues, l'interface nouvelle est plus efficace (lancer de grenade immédiatement accessible du coup) mais ne rend hélas pas le jeu plus maniable pour autant, lequel reste fidèle à sda réputation (non usurpée) de simulateur de bipède 38T qui vire et réagit avec l'allant d'un semi-remorque chargé ras la gueule.

    D'autre part, côté équipe, c'est des (nouveaux) cons mais avec cette fois dans le lot un beau petit lot ou plutô grand lot puisqu'une grande rouquine athlétique qu'on dirait sortie des JO promène son petit derrière le temps de quelques actes... de la campagne ! Mais il y a une autre fille, je crois mais je ne sais plus au juste, dans une autre équipe sans doute, vu que le jeu n'a rien trouvé de mieux pour nous garder éveillé.

    Car il sait, le jeu, qu'il fait de la merde... il le sait ! on n'a jamais vu en effet une telle répétition, un tel remplissage à deux balles (ou trouze mille balles tirées, peu importe) dasn cette pseudo-action qui ne cesse de se caricaturer et de s'alourdir elle-même, comme si le jeu n'était pas assez lourdingue par défaut. Et par défauts...

    Qu'est-ce qu'on se fait chier là-dedans donc... c'en est tout simplement épouvantable ! épouvantable d'ennui. Encore pire que dans le précédent, le Gears 3 qui nous soûlait déjà à mort. Sa violence stéréotypée, ses armes molles ou mal fichues, son rythme si prévisible qu'il en devient lénifiant, ses décors mornes qui donnent envie de dormir...

    Yo soy una persona a la que le gusta empezar a jugar franquicias de videojuegos de forma cronológica, vi que este cronológicamente es el primero en la serie, así que lo jugué y la verdad es que no es un juego malo, sigue siendo un GoW y los GoW no son basura, pero este es un paso atrás en todos los sentidos al juego anterior (GoW 3) y no tiene mucho valor como videojuego.
    Todas las cosas    Yo soy una persona a la que le gusta empezar a jugar franquicias de videojuegos de forma cronológica, vi que este cronológicamente es el primero en la serie, así que lo jugué y la verdad es que no es un juego malo, sigue siendo un GoW y los GoW no son basura, pero este es un paso atrás en todos los sentidos al juego anterior (GoW 3) y no tiene mucho valor como videojuego.
    Todas las cosas que considero que están mal:
    1: Solamente hay 4 mapas de multijugador, cuando en el 3 hay más.
    2: Los DLC son basura, completamente centrados en drenar dinero sin aportar nada importante, si acaso solo 1 mapa multijugador mientras que los otros juegos ampliaban considerablemente la cantidad de contenido (no solo contenido multijugador, sino que también aumentaban el contenido de un ugador).
    3: La historia es tonta. Enjuiciar a unos soldados por desobedecer una orden y prácticamente condenarlos a muerte por salvarle la vida a miles de personas (aunque obviamente no les pasará nada porque hay personajes principales que salen en la trilogía principal, que viene siendo el "futuro"). Además, los testimonios son excusas para jugar con todos los integrantes del equipo.
    4: El diseño de niveles es por zonas, completas una zona y avanzas a la siguiente.
    La campaña es corta, a eso se le suman las misiones "descalificatorias" que rompen el sentido y se sacan retos del orto como un añadido a la dificultad y solo sirven para alargar artificialmente la duración de la campaña.
    5: No hay contenido. Si Halo 3: ODST parecía un poco vacío en contenido, este juego es aún más vacío que ese juego ofreciendo solo 4 mapas base de multijugador y eliminando el modo horda.
    6. El juego está manchado por micro-transacciones. Esto no sería mala si después de todo pudieras desbloquear TODOS los skins haciendo cosas en el juego (como en Halo Reach), pero algunos skins TIENES que comprarlos con dinero real si los quieres.
    Sigue siendo un juego entretenido, con la misma jugabilidad divertida que los juegos anteriores, las misiones de campaña tienen una buena variedad de enemigos y el modo multijugador trae nuevos modos de juego, pero se me antoja insuficiente y no se encuentra a la altura de los otros juegos de la franquicia.
    Solo es un juego mediocre, pero con sobreprecio en su lanzamiento.    … Expand

    O grande problema é o quanto esse game iria custar para ser desenvolvido,nada mais nada menos que 60 MILHÕES de Dólares,Sendo que o primeiro Gears of war custou 12M e arrecadou mais de 100 Milhões,se esse game fosse um fracasso,Adeus Gears of War,adeus Epic Games,Adeus uma das franquias mais memoráveis do mercado.
    Como isso poderia dar certo?
    Um spin off,produzido por um pequeno time da Epic Games,onde não tinha experiência total com a saga,protagonizado polo Baird,antes do Gears of war 1,tinha tudo pra dar errado.
    Campanha:Duas palavras para descrever: Rasa e desinteressante,os novos personagens adicionados não tem carisma e os personagens que conhecemos não parecem o mesmo,uma campanha totalmente Arcade,onde o realismo passa longe,momentos de Hordas tediosos,e conclusão abrupta e vergonha alheia,Serio,oque foi aquele final?
    Os Gráficos são incríveis realmente uma prévia da nova geração,com exceção da Sofia Hendrik,seus olhos parecem uma adesivo colado sobre o rosto,não existe profundidade,além de ser um borrão sem resolução,estranhamente ela é a unica personagem que tem os olhos mal feitos dessa forma.
    Sem nenhum motivo mudaram todas as posições de botões do jogo,Y troca de arma,em vez dos D-pads,existe um botão específico para a granada,é interessante,deixa o jogo mais dinâmico,Agora a cada inimigo morto é dropado munição,que é adicionado a todas as armas,fazendo o jogo ser muito fácil.
    Modo Horda...Ou oque sobrou dele...:
    Não existe mais o modo horda como conhecemos,agora se chama Sobrevivência,sim esse nome genérico,tão genérico como o próprio modo,são 10 ondas apenas,com adição de classes que tem "poderes" específicos,Dar munição,Curar,Plantar sentinelas,Spotar inimigos,transforma o jogo em algo mais casual,já que para ganhar basta todos usarem engenheiros e colocar um monte de sentinelas o tempo todo,com esse modo vem o modo Invasão,que é o verdadeiro destaque,é basicamente o modo besta,mais o modo horda,com cada time sendo composta por COG ou Horda locust,só que esse modo é falho pelo simples fato de ser quase impossível vencer de COG,já que tem que defender um gerador enquanto joga,os Locusts tem muitas vantagens e existe uma evolução locusts mais fortes conforme o tempo, e os COG são sempre os mesmo durante toda a partida,é tudo questão de tempo para os Locusts vencerem,Não é impossível,mas você tem que ter um time muito bom para ganhar,por sorte não vence quem defender o gerador ou quem destruir,e sim quem defende por mais tempo(As equipes se revezam)mas mesmo assim,o progresso de jogar como COG é frustante,já que quase certo que a partida vai acabar em minutos.
    MP:
    Tudo é medíocre,okay...Mas não tem como estragar o multiplayer,é uma formula simples e que da certo...
    Errado,Eles não tiraram o Wallbounce,a gnasher ou as Power Weapows,eles apenas fizeram mudanças que estragaram tudo.
    Agora não podemos carregar 3 armas(Gnasher,lancer e pistola):Agora são apenas duas por vez,sem pistolas.
    Frag no começo da partida:todo mundo começa com frag,assim tornando o jogo uma chuva de explosivos.
    Coronha:A coronha(Meele) é muito rápida,fazendo os duelos de gnasher serem interrompidos a todo momento por aquele noob que coronha logo em seguida em que atira.(Toda arma tem coronha)
    Noobs correm do Gun fight:Já que agora você pode descer de qualquer altura,todos os jogadores fogem ao ver que estão perdendo o gun fight.
    Sawed Off:era chata no Gears 3,oque poderia ficar pior?Ela ter dois tiros,em vez de um...
    Gnasher fraca:mais fraca que o comum.
    Troca de arma muito rápida:é comum alguém metrancar e troca pra gnasher rápido e te matar,além de coronhar...
    Wallbounce interrompido:Quando você leva coronhada você para o wallbounce
    Retro-lancer arma principal:Se você souber usar,retrolancer se torna arma principal...
    Eu poderia ficar falando todos os detalhes que fazer GOW J. não ser um GOW,ele é um bom jogo ,mais não um BOM Gears,esse é o erro dele...Ter esse nome...

    The first Gears of War game I COULD put down. Although the gameplay feel is as solid as the rest, the story and pacing are extremely monotonous and fail to bring the magic of the rest of the series. As a Gears fan I cannot recommend this game at all and I am disappointed that this is the first in the series I simply could not be bothered to complete.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I want to preface this by saying I love Gears of War, it's my favorite game series of all time which is why it hurts to see this garbage being passed off with the Gears of War name tied to it. I assure you this is nothing more than a poorly made Gears clone. The story is contradictory (for example. Colonel Loomis tells you to never use enemy weapons, while his primary weapon is the only pistol developed by the Locust.) The gameplay is less satisfying than the other 3 games, the level design is cheap and uninspired, with a bland color filter over it to try and hide the low graphics quality(It looks worse than Gears 3)

    The squad is shoehorned into the story with near no character progression or interesting traits, they exist as nothing more than padding so you can hit the 4 person squad mark set by the previous games. The new "Declassified" missions are repetitive and while an interesting thing to add, don't make much sense in the main story. Gears of War 3 had a separate story arcade mode and something similar could have been put into Judgement to avoid these giant glaring crimson omens breaking your immersion and reminding you that you're in a game.

    The multiplayer completely ruined the feel of the past three games, deciding to pit red humans vs blue humans despite having fitting enemies for both teams. This may seem like a small thing but it is in fact a large part of the multiplayer, now it just feels like a third person generic Unreal Tournament clone, and not in a good way.

    I didn't enjoy a single moment or aspect of this game, there were NO redeemable qualities whatsoever. It's a generic, soulless cash-in that spits on the feel and general positive aspects of the Gears of War series, and is easily one of the worst games I have ever played.    … Expand

    This the first Gears of war game I have played, and I thought it was going to be awesome but I was wrong. This isn't a terrible game but this need improvements big time. The controls in this game are a joke. The weapons feel absolutely useless, even the shotgun and the sniper. I didn't like this game, and I don't think I'll be playing another Gears of war game after this experience. Do not buy.

    Okay, where to begin. Let's start with the severely flawed gameplay features. First of all, no down-but-not-out. Now, when you're riddled with bullets, you're just dead 9 times out of 10, depending on the circumstances. In Overrun, for instance, you're dead, but can be revived by a medic with "stim grenades", (which to me is kind of ridiculous, just because it feels ridiculous, but that'sOkay, where to begin. Let's start with the severely flawed gameplay features. First of all, no down-but-not-out. Now, when you're riddled with bullets, you're just dead 9 times out of 10, depending on the circumstances. In Overrun, for instance, you're dead, but can be revived by a medic with "stim grenades", (which to me is kind of ridiculous, just because it feels ridiculous, but that's beside the point) which doesn't make me feel any better about not having DBNO. Next, unless things have changed a good bit since the last time I played multiplayer, you can't grenade tag walls to set traps. I personally enjoyed this feature, as it was a fun way to add some strategy to the game. I also hate that you can't have two primary weapons and a pistol, just two weapons. These weapons can be any weapons mind you, so the developers have apparently decided that your snub pistol is as equally valuable as your gnasher is, which essentially renders the pistols in the game obsolete. I mean who in their right mind is dropping their lancer or hammerburst for a snub or boltok, unless they're showing off of course. I also disliked the reworking of the controls. Now this part may be a bit nit-picky, but the control scheme feels too generic now, like Call of Duty or Battlefield instead of Gears. It just feels wrong to play for veterans of the series. Which brings us to another disappointment to veterans. Remember how much you loved horde and beast mode? Well they're gone. But you've heard about overrun, right? Their shiny, new successor? Yeah. It falls way short of expectations. It's all kinds of fun, don't get me wrong, but it's no horde. And survival was just a disappointing, stripped down mode in general. And as if the lack of modes wasn't bad enough, the multiplayer is made laughable by humans fighting humans. So now if you want to play versus, it's red Marcus versus blue Marcus. If you want to play as a Locust, move along to overrun. On top of that, the sheer shortage of even human characters to play as was severely disappointing after the previous game's copious offerings. And then there's the addition of "character skins". Look, if people want to play CoD and shell out their hard earned cash for useless DLC, be my guest, but I've thought the idea of weapon skins in Gears was ridiculous since 3, and the addition of skins for your character such as "bee", "bacon", "candy cane", and "clown" is in direct contrast to how gritty and brutal Gears feels and is supposed to feel. The lack of active reloading could be overlooked, but I feel like the game is missing a staple action each time I reload now. Oh. And one more fun fact. Vets. Remember how in Gears 1 you could melee somebody, then blow them apart with a shotgun because it took you absolutely no time to recover? Well that's back! Thank goodness that never got old and abused! Now on to the positive aspects. I liked how fluid the movement felt, and how you could jump from high ledges now. It just felt really cool. What little multiplayer there is feels fun to play if you can ignore the fact that you just blew your own character's head off while he was dressed up in what looked like a Halloween outfit. The story itself, while unnecessary since we kind of knew the general details, was really fun, and I liked the addition of "bonus missions", so to speak, to reveal more details about what happened. The extra challenge was always welcome. I also liked how the focus was set on Baird and Cole, even though I sorta missed seeing Marcus and Dom, the series's staple protagonists. In short, this game isn't all bad. It's a big let-down to me as a veteran of the series, but as a starting point, I could see how it might not be awful. That said, it's worth playing if you're a hardcore fan of the series for the story alone if you can get it without paying too much. Just try to ignore how awkward and limited things feel at first and you might get used to it. Here's hoping that the next title in the series feels less like a stripped down Gears game trying to imitate Call of Duty and more like the bonafide, gritty, entrancing series we all know and love.… Expand

When did this game turn into a poorly-made 3rd person Call of Duty? The risk of picking up weapons is non-existent, the locust are gone in exchange for a customization option? Really?

    Multiplayer: Couldn't even tell that its gears. They've taken out down but not out (No reviving or executions) which was the trademark of gears. No active reloads, no symmetrical maps, no locust. They've taken everything that belonged to gears and replaced it with COD features. Everyone gets a grenade to start with- its a bloody grenade frenzy. Teamwork is not needed anymore and that to me was what made the game gears of war.    … Expand

    This Game took everything i loved about all the previous Gears of War It annoys me that this may of destroyed the franchise They made it like Call of Duty Style and it makes me Sick.
    The Games Campaign was ok but was a little cheesy id give it a 6 out of 10.
    Multi Player Was horrific and boring Call of Duty Style 2/10.
    Do not buy this game go play Gears of War 3

    It's awful. It literally took out everything that made Gears of War fun. The only thing they did do good was make a versus Beast Mode. It's got only 4 maps, only a couple game-modes, no Locust, a few characters, damage is inconsistent, etc. (just bad changes overall). They focused WAY too much on skins. I thought the skins were cool in Gears of War 3, and I was happy to hear you could haveIt's awful. It literally took out everything that made Gears of War fun.

I thought the skins were cool in Gears of War 3, and I was happy to hear you could have them on your characters in Judgement, but they handled the skins really bad. It's literally just for them to make money. The only people that can find this fun are people who have never played any of the other games, and are coming from a game like CoD. I normally hate statements like these in other games, but this literally is just CoD in third person with a cover system, better customization, and characters. that's all. Game just sucks.… Expand

    It's Gears 3, minus pacing and ambition. It's still fantastically enjoyable, but it's easily the least interesting Gears game. [June 2013, p.64]

    Judgment shows that the People Can Fly team knows its way around triple-A titles. They managed to squeeze a lot out of Unreal Engine 3 – the game looks great even compared to Crysis 3, which set new standards in terms of visuals, also on consoles. And when the technology restrained them, they creatively found a way around limitations. [CD-Action 05/2013, p.60]

    Judgment feels a bit like an excuse to provide the Xbox 360 with one last first-party game for what is likely to be its final year as Microsoft’s flagship game platform.
