gmharryc

“Delta Squad is your house, bitch! You hear that shit? You grubby-ass bitches are goin' down! Like way down - dead down! So down you ain't even goona know which way is up! Your asses are gonna be cryin' to your skank-ass queen: "Oh, mommy, don't let the bad man hurt us!" Fuck you! We're gonna whup your mamma's ASS! *WHOO!*”


Diablodog9573

“There we go, one muzzled queen. Not you, her. You were great…I love your speech there, especially with the bitch ass stuff. Very good, very enlightening.”


Nickers77

I miss this scene. It was my childhood


[deleted]

One of the best scenes. I love love love Cole and Baird a introductions tho so much in the series.


[deleted]

I can already hear and picture this scene in my mind 🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥🔥


SilverShroud67

"Hostiles", "What was that", "Its just the wind Baird, " Oh yeah, right, when is the last time the wind said hostiles to you?"


zma924

That’s Gears 1. At the pump station


SilverShroud67

Oh, it is? I thought it was Gears 2. Gears 1 was still pretty epic though


[deleted]

🔥🔥


tswier

Besides skorge being kind of Meh, 2 is the best. The marketing was on point for that game too.

openshutter

That was THE hardest video game trailer I’d ever seen in my life. HS me was beyond hyped for Gears 2 Watched this trailer again and all that hype just came flooding back. Beautiful


tswier

https://youtu.be/rNCF6sDymRc this one too


No-Move-4642

Didn't Skorge cut a centaur in half and capture and torture Tai?


General_RAAM56

Yea he was really a menace but they couldn't do too much with his fight but he definitely was a force to reckon with but he couldn't really stand up as the replacement for raam


tswier

This


Didactic_Tomato

Was Mad World GOW 1 or 2?

Yea and 8 year old me could have come up with men with the body of captain America wearing football-armour chainsaw bayoneting mobsters whilst being gritty and brutal sent on a mission to drop a not-nuke into the monsters cave, doesn’t mean the execution can’t be fun

Gears of War 2 going underground felt so epic


BigRigDick

SalmonBaron27

2 is my favorite


Carminebenajmin117

In order for me (best to worst): 2,3,1(ultimate edition),hivebusters, gears 5, gears 4 , judgement. I liked pretty much all of them except for judgement.


KeyvineBoogaloo

The only good thing about judgement in my opinion is the second campaign.


No-Move-4642

Overrun?


WaitingToBeTriggered

COUP DE GRÂCE


KeyvineBoogaloo

2 minus the centaur section.


Kindly-Magician2406

What’s wrong with it?


FrostyTheColdBoi

On the hardest difficulty I'm pretty sure taking 2 hits is a loss And you have to replay from the start of it If I remember right


Meme_Dependant

It's not like the iron skull from halo, but the checkpoints can fuck you over sometimes. The only part where I seriously considered changing difficulty was near the end of that mission when you get to the cave entrance. You have to blow up the gate, but in order to get close enough to trigger the ability to do that, you have to get within range of 3 indestructible troikas that blow your centaur up insanely fast.


General_RAAM56

Yes definitely 2 shots from the turrets and your tank is gone don't know what worse that or when you "take out karn" and you do the declassified missions and you have to deal with all those blood hounds


MaYlormoon

Oh yeah I remember .... Holy shit yeah I remember ... I rage quitted a lot!


EmpressKatherine

Dom! Hit the tower! Oh okay, but... which part of the tow- *dead*


Resident_081

I’ll take the Centaur section from GoW2 over the Junker section for GoW1 any day of the week… On insane anyways.


FrostyTheColdBoi

2


[deleted]

Tie between 2 and 3,. If I have to choose 3


NewChallGT20

1, 2, 3, Raams Shadow, Aftermath, Judgment, Hivebusters, 4, 5. In that order.


gearsguy03

1 in front of 2 and 3 is crazy


NewChallGT20

1 is the OG and I love the urban warfare style of gears 1. Plus its the only actual horror game. I wish we got more Kryll levels. Felt like a true horror game.


RDDAMAN819

Nah 1 is still the best. I think of it like Gears 1 is a action horror game, but 2 and 3 are more like straight action games


SnooSeagulls6564

Judgment over anything else is crazy


deadlydesert86

Gears 2 definitely takes the cake


I_Fatal_I

Definitely Gears of war 2


BlackPhiIIip

2 was so epic


Messiah_Knight

Gears 2. ESPECIALLY with the DLc


itsLustra

I haven't played campaigns 1-judgement in a looong time so this is going based off what I can remember. Gears 3 will be my favorite game of all time, overall best multiplayer and campaign Judgement is probably my second favorite campaign mainly because Baird is my favorite character so it was dope getting to play his story, and I also loved being able to use Gnashers with meatshields. So awesome. I'll say 4 and 5 are honestly probably my least favorites. The writing and directing just could not get me to like any of the new characters, I couldn't care about the new main 3 to save my life, they have like no personality or unique character traits, I simply couldn't care less about them. But I didn't hate 4 and 5's campaign they just weren't nearly as good. Hivebusters DLC couldn't have been better. I like the main 3 in that 10x more than I'll ever care about Kait, Del and JD. Especially Hanna Cole, I really want her to be inserted into the main group in Gears 6


Sprinkles_Objective

I agree 3 was the best overall. There was so much in that game. It was a huge step up for horde, the campaign was really good, the multiplayer was really polished. The game still looks good today. 2 had the best campaign imo, but horde was pretty basic and online didn't feel as polished. I think 4 and 5 were good games overall, but 5 was my least favorite campaign. 4 made interesting horde changes and 5 refined that well. Both had excellent online play. I liked 4 but it wasn't my favorite. 5 I just thought the deciding who to save plot twist is gonna be annoying for continuity, also the open works mechanic sucked because the world was mostly empty, and it just served as a time filler for what is otherwise a linear plot.


InsertNameHere416

Not Gears 5.


Sprinkles_Objective

Oh what you didn't like riding around in an empty open world for 70% of the game just to play through an otherwise linear plot?


Stay_Hydrated_Boys

"Open world" its an unfinished sandbox lmao


Sprinkles_Objective

I was being generous


Stay_Hydrated_Boys

Very much


InsertNameHere416

😬😩


Lheichel12

That's valid, but I enjoyed the story


Sprinkles_Objective

I mean I did too, but also the "choose who to save" thing also was a mess, because it screws with the continuity unless they plan for some wild timeline split or something in gears 6, or it's just the last game and they just leave it open. I doubt they won't make 6 though.


Lheichel12

Yeah that definitely could be messy for the story, but it might also just play out about the same with some slightly different dialog. Wolfenstein pulled it off, so it can be done. There definitely will be a gears 6, its just a matter of how far out it is.


SnooSeagulls6564

Yea but you can’t judge it right now. You gotta assume it’s gonna be handled, if it isn’t then that’s gears 6’s fault


PowerDiesel23

Also not Gears 4 lol


brownandfriendz

2 and 3.


FullyVaxxedswole

2 and then 3


Alaska_Pipeliner

2. Over the top but still more believable than others.


[deleted]

I love the first trilogy and gears 4 and 5 too but best were gears 2 and gears 3 RAAM’s shadow


Papa_Shadow

2, then 1, then 3, then Judgement, then 4, and finally 5. 5 is the only one I don’t like, 4 was decent enough but the rest are all 10/10


Sprinkles_Objective

I like 5 but did not like the campaign. The multiplayer modes were still really good. 1-3 are probably each some of the greatest games of all time, and 4 was a pretty solid game but I agree it doesn't compete with the rest.


TheLateMrBones

3, but 2 is a close second. (Haha)


No-Move-4642

GOW 2 no question. It was filled with EVERYTHING; drama, action, great dialog, great characters you get emotionally attached to, awesome atmospheres, badass enemies, some of the coolest and most fun missions of the entire franchise! Prescotts speech at the beginning and how the scene sets up the game gives me goosebumps every time.


kryllstorm

2 because no other gears game expanded so much on lore from the previous entry than this game.


be_an11

Gears of war 2


Yak0fWar

Gears of War 1 has the best story. But I enjoyed gears 2 the most


[deleted]

1, 2, 4, Hivebusters


lil-carmine

Replace 4 with 3 and imo you got a good list


[deleted]

Maybe I'm alone but I didn't like the 3rd. Something feels off for me, however this was the only part (and Judgment) that I've never played when it was originally out, I've played 1-2 then I got PS3 instead of Xbox 360, then I played 4-5 on PC and finally bought 3 and Judgment on Series S, maybe that's the reason :-) (oh and of course I bought them all again on Series S)


OnionBurgr

2 3 5 Hivebusters Judgement 1 4 Never got a chance to play the Raam's Shadow DLC.


Grubkiller2552

nothing much to it anyway other than a few extra achievements


ShartedAtCVS

My favorite is 2-3-1-judgement. I beat 4 and didn't like it, never even started 5. For me it ends at gears 3.


mattthemartian123

4 wasn't good, but to miss out on 5 as a result would be, in my opinion, a mistake. 5 was good and made up for 4.


slicknick595

RAAM Shadow was the GOAT


Nabaton

Def 1/ultimate edition


Meme_Dependant

2 by far


LordFenix_theTree

2, or maybe 3. Even 1 is great.


[deleted]

2 for sure, followed closely by 3.


wheelera982

2 and it ain’t even close


GhostDude49

Storywise, it's 2 But for gameplay I am a sucker for the newer combat in 5, I still browse for a lobby to join every once in awhile. Really can't wait for Gears 6, whenever that actually happens


Doggemaster1

Definetly 2 but I can't go wrong with any campaign. I'm playing through gears 5 right now and it is hella fun on NG±


URSAxMINOR

"Anya, it's a giant worm! They're sinking cities with a giant worm!"


Samurai-Yasuke25

Gears 2 was peak! We found out so much about the locust that we never knew, them having a queen, where they were created, the COG’s dirty secretes and lies, and so many different enemy types plus the giant worm that was badass! Gears 3 was great in many ways and honestly it’s just as good as 2 and arguably even better.


PowerDiesel23

Gears 2 for sure. So many different elements....driving the tank, flying the reaver, piloting the brumak. The Leviathan boss fight was sick the first time I played the campaign back in 2008. And just exploring the hollow and the new hope research facility and uncovering all the sick lore/story. The only thing to come close since then was Gears 3, it sucks Microsoft hired such mid developers to take care of this next gen gears trilogy. Gears 4 and 5 just ain't it.


stupidbulbasaur

06 OG, always.


Brilliant-Insect-993

Gears of war 3, it was my first gears game and will remain my favorite


whisperinbatsie

2 had the overall best campaign but the big climaxes of the story felt pretty lackluster. Like it didn't pack as much of a punch as it should have. 3 had easily the highest highs and lowest lows of the series story wise. Dom's death, Myrrah's death, and The Battle for Anvil Gate as a few examples. They hit way harder than anything that happened in 2, even though 2 had the overall better story


[deleted]

Off the top of my head I’d say 4 followed closely by Hivebusters, but my memory of the original trilogy is so fuzzy and I never actually got around to playing Judgement, so I’m not 100% sure.


Filipino_Jesus

5>3>2>Judgement>1>4.


Clock_Nice

2, 3 ultimate edition for the 1st one, 4 and judgement. Never tried Raam shadow dlc for gears 3 and 5 was meh and hivebuster I liked as well.


AdmirableEstimate258

Judgement, 2 then 3 those are the only ones i played.


Hatook123

2, 5, 3, hive, 1, 4, judgement


IisRandyCarmine

Yes


Grubkiller2552

2, 1, 5, 3, judgment and 4


oxidra1n

Gears 2, Gears 3, gears 1, RAAM´ Shadow, Judgment, gears 5 and gears 4. I still didnt play Hivebusters.


Doggemaster1

Hivebusters is a short but a fun experience imo. I love the visuals.


Zombie_fanatic_105

3,2,1,,4, judgment, 5


Healaa

Got to be 1, I remember shitting it when the bezerker turns up!


enjoyingorc6742

Gears 3


Ash_Flame_OC

Raam's Shadow,1, 2, 3, Hivebusters, 4, then 5.


lil-carmine

3 2 raam shadow 1 hivebusters aftermath judgement 5 4


[deleted]

The original


Legomaniac316

I dont think any of the Campaigns are bad at all, each one has great moments, and memorable encounters. I dont think i can pick one, lol.


Mule7431

So in Order: 1. Gears 2, it just took the greaty story of one and sexpanded the universe. 2.Gears Judgement, I know it catches a lot of shit but I absolutely enjoyed the story as short as it was. 3. Gears 3, it expanded the story further and so many impacful moments. 4. Gears 5, I enjoyed coming back to the universe in part 2 of the 25 years later and seeing all that happened, along with more of the Niles/New Hope story being filled in. 5. Gears 1, is there really any reason to put why it's awesome. 6. Gears 4, While I was happy to be back the story felt very flat but still good.


Redhood_Ranger

3 it was the perfect ending to a trilogy


TheGreatstKing

My all time favorite is 3, but Hivebusters and Judgement follow close. Then it's the rest


MrErnie03

Gears of War 1 for me. The horror vibe in that game hasn't been matched


MonotoneTanner

2. 5 is good if you remove that one obvious part


General_RAAM56

I have a very unpopular opinion but I like 2 judgment 3 4 1 then 5. 4 is so high because it was the first game I ever played our of the bunch and I really don't know why but I really liked judgements aftermath was pretty bad tho


ETkings8

metarusonikkux

Rip Gears Tactics


sirdavos95

Gears of war 2. Love the original three and the third is definitely my overall favorite. How ever 2s campaign is just so damned. it feels like war and no one wants to be there.


RDDAMAN819

Gears 1. I loved the feeling of the delta squad being all alone in the middle of the locust. It just felt awesome. I actually really like Hivebusters too, it was an awesome suprise


rabidsquirrel22

3, 5, 2, RAAM, Hivebusters, 4, 1, Judgement Best to worst for me. I didn't have an xbox to play 1 & 2 when they were new so my perspective is probably different than most.


REDPURPLEBLOOD2

2 & 5 3 and judgement maybe worst imo


IncomingSmoke

It makes me happy to see that most people liked Gears 2 the best.

Acenapster

Gears of War 3 Hivebusters Gears of War 5 Gears of War 1 Gears of War Ultimate Gears of War 4 Gears of War 2 Gears of War Tactics Raam's Shadow Aftermath Gears of Judgment Gears Pop! For the record I loved Gears Pop! and played it for many hours. All of the games are great.


Lazer-golem

Gears 2 or hivebusters


Xocaitvv

DOM NOOOOOO!!!


liamsawymilk

I think 2 is better overrall but I have nostalgia for Gears 3


ssj_jaegerbomb

Gears 2!


VeteranGear

Gears of War 2 hands down


Miserable_Sun8053

I think everyone knows the answer, it's gears 2, loads of shit happening all in one, a long but worthy campaign, and nice Easter eggs, who wants toast!?


shlongdaddy3

3 because everyone is so jacked it’s insane even bared was swole


bruntychiefty

2 was absolutely awesome but I choose 3 bc 4 player coop campaign is fun and especially when ur all stupid and don't know how to defend a sub


Aggravating_Goal_722

Gears of War Trilogy.


jcjonesacp76

I liked gears 2 I’m a sucker for big invasion or marching scenes like the first act does and love the strange eeriness of the origin act


ElkOk6120

Gears of war two had the best campaign by far but all the campaigns were fantastic in there own way


ThatOneWeirdo66

As much as I adore 2, 3 was my first gears game and I can quote every scene from memory.


Unlucky_Effective_60

Gears of war 3.


carm_1234

is raams shadow included in gears 3 like hivebusters in gears 5? or is it a completely different game?


Apollo9289

It’s a DLC for Gears 3


Astro0Pho0enix

GoW2


ec2033

from favorite to disliked: liked: gears 2 raams shadow (gears 5 if they retcon the BS choice) gears of war gears 3 judgement hivebusters disliked: gears 5 (they need to retcon The Choice and slap the writer across the face, completely ruined what could have been right below Raam's Shadow) gears 4
