It's easy to let nostalgia distort what the games we played almost a decade ago looked like. The most recent example of a possible victim of this tendency would be The Coalition's upcoming Gears of War: Ultimate Edition.
Legend has it that this list of the best Xbox One Co-Op games is so good, it may require four people to fully enjoy.
Daily Video Game writes: "CDKeys is featuring various digital titles on sale with huge discounts for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC gamers right now! The savings vary depending on what game you want to purchase, but you could save up to 90% off of them, and that's pretty awesome."
The issue with these sites is that 'some people' buy keys in sales with stolen credit cards, then you buy the game from them...Then the company get the chargeback so it actually costs the game company money. I'm not convinced this is a vast majority though as pretty sure if it was a fraud site it woud just be closed down. Only issue I've had with an invalid key was for splinter cell blacklist for 38p. Pretty sure that is penny fraud. i.e. most people won't bother disputing as it's not worth it.
IGN sit down with members of The Coalition to discuss how Gears esports has grown over the years.
The game is way too clean. And the textures in the old one looks dirty and muddy and in the new one looks very bright and clean.
I really appreciate that they upped the graphics and improved things in the Remake but the old atmosphere is gone. They are making the same mistake of Gears 3.
Oh well, at least Gears 4 looks fricking awesome.
Wow, Gear 1 looking great so far Remastered. Man cant wait, hopefully they use the Mad World song again for PR.
Playing it looks great. It runs so smooth and no lobby lag. No more god host or crazy glitches for people to exploit. Most fun I've had in multiplayer all Gen. Already put 10 hours in and will most likely put around 30 before it ends.
It's still a mad, mad world!!!! I remember when I first saw images of this game in gamepro/electronic gaming monthly magazines, and holding on to those mags until the first trailer (which is still locked in my old 360) launched. I watched that trailer everyday until the game finally came out! Gears of war is the shooter that gave the genre a face(it's marcus fenix), and for me there is none better.... I am all over this remaster, and absolutely can't wait for gears 4!!!
Some of the new textures look great, but why are they changing the dark tone / mood of the stages completely? Some of those pics turn dark and creepy alleys into shiny streets that are just missing the rainbows and unicorns.
