Its got to be Gears of War 3 for me. All round perfect package. The MP was great and the campaign was overall the best.

Act 1 of Gears of War 2 is probably the best opening act I've seen in a video game and has better set pieces that Gears of War 3.

Judgement is actually pretty great in my opinion. Good story, fun gameplay, split screen and top notch 7th gen graphics. Arguably the best paced in the series as well if you want more action and less story.

If anything the PvP took a step back but had some interesting stuff.

Anywho, I'm gonna say Gears 3 is overall the best for campaign and MP.

 

The story was bad, honestly. It was really a throw-away excuse to have Baird & Co. doing things around the globe. There were a lot of things that could have been clarified better had they took a different stance, but I guess it is what it is.

That being said, the game isn't bad by any means. Aftermath was a nice unlockable and very fun to play. The extra objectives in the campaign spiced things up, and as always, any co-op game can be enjoyed even more with friends. While the new Horde mode sucked in comparison to the previous one, the novelty allowed for some fun matches (and the team-based aspect of it made you more dependent on your friends).

PvP was terrible, but since I got out around twenty to thirty hours of enjoyement on the campaing and extras alone, I'm not complaining.

For a side game, the story was fine. Kinda like side God of War game.

That co-op multiplayer is good, but it wasn't as good as horde mode. I guarantee it would have been more fun if they offered more difficulty settings in match making.

Maybe Judgetment was lacking compared to mainline titles in the series, but it ranks high in best shooters of the 7th gen.
