First batch of Gears of War Judgement copies will include free digital copy of the original game

New copies of Gears of War: Judgement will include a download code for the original Gears of War, publisher Microsoft has announced.

The offer is limited to "initial launch quantities" of the game, Microsoft said, and was inspired by research which suggested less than half of Gears 3 players had played the series opener.

Pre-order the game and you'll get the Classic Hammerburst weapon, plus an exclusive multiplayer skin at participating retailers.
GAME customers get Emergence Day Marcus, Tesco shoppers get Emergence Day Dom, ShopTo folk get Alex Brand and "other select retailers" will give away Anya (Gears of War 3).

Wow, because 95% of the people who buy this won't already have a disc copy.....

I don't lol plus you can pop it on eBay

You can pick Gears 1 up for under a fiver so you won't be getting much for a D/L code for it. Seems an odd move to bundle a full game in as an extra. Are they concerned that this one won't be that great and so hope to smooth things over with one that is?

more bad information, no locust, and a free gears 1 copy yeah would seem this is going to be a fail!

there are locust in thedefend the e hole/ generator game type more like beast than anything

but none in MP, it is red vs blue cogs!
