If the quote “don’t judge a book by its cover” was a video game series, it would be Gears of War. At first glance, this seems like your basic run of the mill military shooter starring unrealistically bulky meathead soldiers. This could arguably be true for the first game in the series but beyond that, the characters and story in the Gears series have evolved and grown with each entry. Along with that, Gears of War revolutionized the third person shooter genre and I would argue that no other game or franchise has been able to top it. Some may have done it just as well but none have done it better. As a fan of these games I thought it would be fun to rank them all so that’s what I’m going to do here. Keep in mind, this is my ranking and yours might be different. Either way, let me know in the comments.
