Series went downhill since gears 3. Even though gears 3 is supposedly made by Epic I can see people can fly's influence all over that game. That game abandoned the atmosphere of previous gears in favor of arcadey gameplay and now they've taken it even further with gears J. I shudder to think what gears 4 will be like.
I also don't get why you like grenades being thrown with one button. It was never that difficult in the previous gears to switch to nades and quick toss with a tap of RT. Mapping nades to the bumper just encourages spamming. That was not a change for the better, it feels like they are trying to mimick uncharted which is just sad. I can't think of any change they made that improved the game.

Gears 3 was the best game in my opinion. The Locust war ended in Gears of War 2, they switched perfectly to the Lambent menace. I never saw the problem in it, regarding atmosphere. The story is by far the best (Except for letting one or two important things unexplained) and the game was solid. It was Epic's; I never saw any sign of "Bulletstorm" influence.

You didn't see bulletstorm's influence? Just look at the arcadey nature of the game, you shoot enemeies and points come out, ribbons pop up every time your character sneezes. The game even had a move that looked like it came straight from bulletstorm (bag and tag). Not to mention the overall silly cartoonish vibe of the whole game.
The story in gears 3 could and should have been great but epic dropped the ball on that too. There were just too many cringe worthy moments.

You understand that the Campaing in Gow3 is not arcadey, do you? There were two separated modes. Campaing mode did not have any "arcade" feel, because that's what it was: campaing. Wether you wanted arcade, you had Arcade mode for it. No points, nor ribbons appeared during Campaing.
And I don't see how Gears 3 is cartoonish. The graphics have their downside sometimes, but they tend to look pretty beautiful. Of course this is a matter of opinion.
I found Gears of war 3 to be a huge improvement.
