Gears of War: Judgment (OverkillLabs3)

Game: Gears of War: Judgment → (Xbox 360, 2013)

A native Windows build of the Xbox 360 version: the game’s PowerPC program is translated to C++ ahead of time with the ReXGlue SDK and runs on its emulated Xbox 360 graphics and system layer. It adds keyboard and mouse input that goes straight into the game’s own controls, with mouse look free of smoothing and acceleration and every action rebindable, a 60 fps limit or an unlocked frame rate (lifting the game’s 62 fps cap), SMAA and FSR 1.0, automatic quality based on your graphics card, adjustable field of view and draw distance, an on-disk shader cache, an in-game settings menu (F4), and a separate settings window. It turns off the game’s film grain, motion blur, and FXAA by default, and offers the xenia-canary community patches for this game as options. It renders at 720p by default, with 1440p as an experimental option. Its author presents it as an early release: the campaign boots and plays, but testing has mostly covered its first part and a single PC, and multiplayer and online features don’t work. Version 0.2.1 (October 11) fixed loading saves and added a choice among the twelve languages on the disc.

You needThe folder from your own retail copy of Gears of War: Judgment for Xbox 360 (title ID 4D530A26), with default.xex and the GearGame folder; it takes about 7 GB. Plus 64-bit Windows 10 or 11, a DirectX 12 graphics card, 8 GB of RAM, and a fast CPU, since the game is CPU-limited: about 90–110 fps unlocked on a Ryzen 7 5800X3D.
