That's your opinion, but IMO pretty much everything that made Gears of War a good game has been stripped from this game. There is no sense of desperation, the plot is paper thin, and actually comical (why are they trialing Baird when people are dying in the courtroom due to the firefight outside?). There is no Horde mode (well what's left is butchered), the game only comes with 4 maps, and....well it's pretty bad.

The gameplay is fine, but everything is is just crap, and yea, like you said, it's an unnecessary addition to the franchise. The plot is.,...just meaningless, and bad.

Contradiction alert!

"The gameplay is fine..."

I'm disappointed with Judgement as well. But the campaign is still pretty fun even if the story wasn't great and I played a good numbers of hours with the multiplayer. Why? Because the gameplay was fine.

Well Judgement is only fine, Gears 1-3 was awesome.

I have played Ascension a little and I really don't understand why it's rated so much lower than God of War 3. Is it that God of War 3 is overrated?

Not even close (to me, God of War III is UNDERrated). Ascension is good, the combat is refined, but there are some steps back that it took. Of course it couldn't have the strengths of III's concluding tale, but it could have been a little better, I felt.

We have very opossing opinions on the matter. I think God of War 3 is only of the most over-rated games ever. It was just so excessively violent, and I felt the plot was a bit funny compared to the first 2. I think Bayonetta is a better hack and Slash game, Devil May Cry 3 as well (not sure about the new ones).
