I got it for $40 thanks to New Egg deal last week.

who were the people claiming that Gears would review around the same as the new God of War?
And now the Sess killed any small hype I had for the campaign, it sounds so repetitive. Sigh, hopefully the gunplay and improved controls is enough to hold me.
Yeah. So it should be interesting.I'll play the campaign for the story. Bissell is involved, right?
Sterling mentions Gears 3 was a stepbackwards in his review.
they can only review what they are sent to review
what if those 2 maps are complete and uber crap that would affect the score as well?
The newest chapter of the Gears of War series hits store shelves this Tuesday, and you'll probably see reviews for it popping up any minute now. However, you won't see Game Informer's just yet.
If you've paid attention to any gaming sites over the last couple of weeks, you may have heard about a rocky online launch or two (ok, one big one in particular). Considering the Gears series has a heavy focus on multiplayer, we want to make sure that the online experience is playable and solid before we assign a definitive score to the game as a whole. Because of that, you'll have to wait a couple more days before you see our thoughts on the new Epic shooter. Keep an eye on the site on Tuesday evening, as that's when it will most likely be posted.

Launch window lol keep moving the goal postsThey're releasing close enough to the launch window that these reviews should be reevaluated to reflect the addition of the multiplayer maps and additional mode. Unless the publication only cares about the initial page hits that a post embargo review brings.
I didn't even play 3, but I doubt it was as bad as 2.Sterling mentions Gears 3 was a stepbackwards in his review.
Instantly invalidated.
I've got news for you guys, and I don't think you'll like it...

Yup. If it's terrible like previous entries, I think it'll push me over the edge as far as my stance on narrative in games is concerned.Yeah. So it should be interesting.
If you think this is bad, go read their Uncharted 3 review.man the IGN review reads like a love letter. Makes the game sound one of the best of the generation
Yeah. So it should be interesting.
Game Informer with a responsible hold? Weird. Also, refreshing.
It's really, really not.

Most people end up playing like 2 maps regularly in most games. I guess with only four maps to start with there are fewer opportunities for one or two of those to be "the one," and then the DLC angle makes it all seem a little bit shady...
Unless the MP servers were not up during the review process (which should have been judging by the peeps who got it early), GoW has not DRM so why are they holding out on the review?

Its gears of wars, so we will add 3 extra points...
Meh.
Should this be normal? Should all game with heavy online focus reviews be posted days/weeks after the game is release?
The same person who said GOW:Ascension was dogshit because it was pretty much the same gave GOW: Judgement a 9.2? What a joke.

Gears 3 wasn't broken though. In fact, the online for that was some of the best I've ever played.I don't understand reviews nor do I care for them.
My question is how can you review a game with 9/10 when the online is broken at launch? Mostly referring to Gears 2 and 3. Do reviewer play the games online or do the just give it 9/10 and hope that online get fix down the road?

It's really, really not. It's completely uninteresting. Not that Gears of War games have you know, exemplary stories, but they're at least entertaining for what they are, Judgment disappoints in that regard. I liked the actual gameplay content of the campaign enough that it wasn't a huge issue, though.
Oh, I see...I've got news for you guys, and I don't think you'll like it...
lol yep I remember that one.If you think this is bad, go read their Uncharted 3 review.
If you followed that recent thread we had about worst reviews, most of them came from IGN.
I dont know if Judgement is supposed to be a budget title or something, but for such a hugely popular flagship IP, I'm wondering where these games go from here
How is that the responsibility of the press to evaluate it later because Microsoft decided to withhold maps for business decisions.
That's their problem not the journalists.
Speak the news.
Go on...
