Gears of War Ultimate Edition trailer brings back ‘Mad World’

I find it kind of funny. I find it kind of sad.

A new trailer for the Xbox One version of Xbox 360 shooter Gears of War brings back the song “Mad World” to the franchise. “Mad World” was originally in a commercial for the first game and helped drum up interest in the then new franchise with its melancholy mood. You can see the new trailer above and the original below.
