Gears of War's cover-based shooting and weighty gunplay were a revelation when it launched. The "roadie run" and brutal executions defined the tone, and the visceral action, combined with the Horde mode, kept players hooked. The Ultimate Edition's remastering of the first title provides a great entry point, showing what made the original so influential on the genre.
