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.

lol Have you played Gears before?
Gears 1 was dark and new. Biggest problem was the multiplayer's lag yet people loved it still. Gnasher, Sniper, Torque, and Boomshot was OP and everything else sucked. Double melees, two-piece, active snipe, host advantage, crab walking, ninja flips, etc. Many problem.
Gears 2 campain lost the dark feeling but replaced it with a more personal experience and horde mode was added. Multiplayer lost what made it good in the first place. A huge mess upon release.
Gears 3 continued the personal experience of gears 2's campaign. The multiplayer was the best overall experience by far. Biggest problems became Retro Lancer and Sawed Off. Sawed off got a huge nerf though. Cliffy B since then has stated he regrets putting it in the game.
Gears: J I will not comment about it sense i have yet to play it but by arcadey it sure didnt follow Gears 3. Gears has always been about skilled gameplay just like Halo. Because of this they are popular, they may not be as popular as call of duty where everybody can jump in and play but they have been constantly one of the most popular online games.

I agree with him about Judgment. Very "Bulletstorm-ish". Gears 2, won't say much, except that it was, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the worst in the series for me, both multiplayer and the campaign. Awful.
While, Gears 3 is complementary to Gears 1, Epic may never again capture the meaty, competitive feel of the original. My favorite shooter, by far. Both the 360 & PC versions!
