A game that was very influential in its day, especially for the cover system from which other games such as the 'Uncharted' saga later borrowed ideas. I have to say that I haven't played the original XBOX 360 version, so for me this is the first contact with the series. The shootouts are frantic and challenging and the scenario design is pretty good, perhaps falling a bit into repetition as you get further into the game. The exploration of the scenarios is reinforced with the usual mechanics of searching for collectibles to unlock, in this case, comic pages. In short, if you're in the mood for a third-person shooter, pure, unabashed action, Gears of War: Ultimate Edition delivers it without a hitch, for 8 to 10 hours of straightforward, adrenaline-fuelled fun.

Gears of War remains a standout title. It takes a lot for a game to draw raves nine years after its release...Gears is just that good.
