Discussion of Gears of War: Reloaded

Pretty stoked about this one, even though I already own Ultimate Edition. A bit bummed that the free upgrade to Reloaded for Ultimate Edition owners only applies to people with the digital copy, and not the physical copy, but oh well. The servers on Ultimate Edition have been mostly dead for quite awhile now besides a couple specific moments of the week, so it's hard to get some good multiplayer matches in.
EDIT: Microsoft sent me a code for a digital copy through an official Xbox message! Make sure to check yours if you owned the Ultimate Edition digitally.

Reloaded, on the other hand, will allow me to play with all of my friends on PlayStation for the first time, in addition to all of my usual Xbox and PC friends. I'm hoping this means a much higher player count for more years, because I have a tendency to revisit older games for a bit at a time.
I'm a sucker for the OG Gears of War trilogy too. It's a special kind of game like Halo:CE through Reach, CoD MWIII (the original) or before, etc.

Not to mention that sweet 60-120fps gameplay @ 4K. No official gameplay videos from Microsoft or The Coalition yet, but there are a few screenshots and details on their official article.
Looking forward to scoring some achievements and hopefully doing some co-op missions with some of you! This will definitely hold me over until E-Day comes out next year.
