Editorial Reviews
The score for Epic Games' "Gears of War" was composed by Kevin Riepl and features over 60 minutes of orchestral music inspired by blockbuster movie soundtracks such as "Alien", "Predator" and "Starship Troopers".
The recordings were performed by the Northwest Sinfonia (Halo, Medal of Honor) at the Bastyr University Chapel in Seattle.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2007Having spent spans of 24 hours or more with X-box 360 controller in my hands and giddily giggling like a school-girl as yet another Wretch is ground into pulp by a chainsaw or shotgun blast, I just had to have this cd when it was finally released.
One of the great things about the game was the feeling that you were having a real cinematic experience filling the massive boots of Marcus Fenix. While the HD visuals and the great voice work went a long way into making that experience work, in a lot of cases the music did an even better job.
Kevin Riepl has somehow managed to merge several different genre of musical sountracks into a sonic hammerburst with which your ears are reduced to puddles of blood, gore and DNA strands.
To easily sum up what this soundtrack reminds me of, take Christopher Franke of Babylon 5 fame, add a pinch of generic horror soundtracks through the ages, throw in a little of the dark marches of Howard Shore from his Lord of the Rings works, add a heaping helping of patriotic and military movie inspiration, and stir liberally.
If you liked/loved the game, then you've probably already caught your self humming the themes (or hearing them in your head) when no one was around... If so, get this NOW and you can tell the police officer who pulls you over for speeding on your way to work or school is that there is a swarm of Kryll chasing you and the UV cannon just died...
- Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2010I bought this soundtrack mainly because I liked the song right at the end of the game that Cole Train sings; of course, that is the one song that was not on the soundtrack. So if you like that song, you'll be disappointed with this soundtrack in that respect; I know I was. Other than that, all of the other music that was in the game is on this soundtrack. Believe me I know because I have beaten the game like a hundred times already. I have a thing for military/score music, so I think this soundtrack was a pretty good listening. It all depends on what you like.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2014Kevin Riepl does an amazing job on this score to capture the distress and despair of the emerging chaos as the COG forces are being pushed back against the Locust horde. Being the most horror-inspired and tragic of the Gears series, the soundtrack is as dark as the color palette in the game, with only the sense of victory during the climatic finale. Gears fans would not be disappointed by purchasing the original soundtrack.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2008I purchased this soundratk after several hours playing hte 2006 GOTY. This videogame has a thrilling atmosphere, I think that the music has a very important role in the game.
This sountrack contains every song you could listen in the game, the only song that isn't included has been the credit vocal song.
I'm very satisfied with my item, If you love "Gears Of War" you'll love this original soundtrack too.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2011If you like the music in gears of war like i did this is a soundtrack that is worth buying i got this and the GoW2 Soundtrack and they are both great CDs. If you are a fan of the franchise then this CD is for you!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2007I love the Gears of War game. I had nightmares the first few nights I played it and the music is sufficently haunting to bring back some memories of fun game playing. All the music is there except the Cole Train Rap from the end of the game. :( I actually liked that song. The music is from the game, while some of it is good and can stand alone as a good instrumental pieces, some of it is just background music and not particularly noteworthy. It is not bad if you like the music from the game. If it had the Cole Train Rap I would have given it 4 stars. (A great 5 star soundtrack example would be any of the Battlestar Galactica CDs.)
- Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2017This is my favorite game series and listening to this everywhere I go is pretty amazing.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2013This soundtrack is my favorite so naturally I listened to it for many times through the whole disc. Impressive how all the songs fit on one disc.

CherryReviewed in the United Kingdom on July 10, 20155.0 out of 5 stars Official game soundtrack to the smash hit xbox 360 game
This wonderfully evocative OST is a must for any fan of the franchise! Listening to it, one is transported right back into the game. I keep expecting to hear character voice-overs lol!

Amazon カスタマーReviewed in Japan on October 10, 20165.0 out of 5 stars 全ては此処から始まった。
重厚な世界観を彩る旋律が魅力なサウンドトラックです。欲を言えばゲームエンディングに流れるコール・トレイン(仮)を収録してほしかった。

Fabrice BlondelleReviewed in France on February 10, 20135.0 out of 5 stars Très bonne BO !
Moi qui suis fan de GoW, j'adore cette musique. Même si le compositeur est différent de celle des deux opus suivants, on retrouve cette même atmosphère oppressante et désespérée. Rien qu'en écoutant ce disque, on se retrouve plongé dans le jeu. En tout cas, un achat à recommander de toute urgence à tout fan du jeu.
