Gears of War: Judgment comes out next week, bringing us back to a time before the original game. Wait, settle down! It doesn't literally bring you back there physically. That'd be time travel, and that's impossible! Unless it isn't... hmm. In the meantime, here's a video of us playing the original.

Want to hang out with GamesRadar's editors while taking a look at retro games, new releases, and totally random experiences? RadarPlays is for you. Mondays we'll be checking out blasts from the past on RadarPlays Retro, Wednesdays we change things up to whatever we feel like playing with RadarPlays Shuffle, and Friday is packed with the strangest titles you’ve never (hopefully) heard of in RadarPlays Freaky. We'll also release RadarPlays for all the new releases, so be sure to check back!
