'Gears of War: Ultimate Edition' gamers to get previous series entries in November

Prior to last week's launch of "Gears of War: Ultimate Edition," Microsoft promised that gamers who played the Xbox One remaster would receive the backwards-compatible versions of all Xbox 360 entries in the series for free. A definitive release date wasn't set at the time of the Aug. 3 announcement, but according to a Microsoft executive, the games will be available in November.

The original Gears downloaded for me when I inserted the Ultimate disc. I was wondering what happened to the rest. Good to know. :)

Tedakin3188d ago

Nah you're getting your downloads in November. No one has it yet.

Immorals3188d ago

Gears 1 is available to us preview members. Sucks they couldn't have at least added that for everyone, worked perfectly for me!

RJ920093188d ago

I'm a preview member and I did not get it.but ill wait and see in November.

That's good. I've already got the GoW: UE and have started playing. Look forward to plating the original games through again.

My kid has been loving Playin the campaign with me, turn off extreme content then play co-op with him, he's been asking me to play every night and asking when the backwards one come out

can i trust them with my debit card?

franwex1636d ago (Edited 1636d ago )

Use a credit card if you are kinda leary. Not a debit card.
I have bought stuff from them and had no problems, so I guess it’s okay.

Thunder_G0d_Bane1636d ago

Are keys legit or will Sony unleash ban hammer

ElementX1636d ago

I've heard they're bought with stolen credit card numbers. The person gets the transactions reversed because it was stolen, but the "seller" gets the game codes to sell on CDKeys and other grey market sites.

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.
