    A very solid game that fullfills everything the Fanbase wantet from a new installment! Very deep and well put Story, best generation graphics ever seen on a Platform and the beloved and solid gameplay that gears is known for but with more fine tuning behind it to make it even more fluid an buttery smooth when playing!

    GOTY DE ESTE AÑO 2019. NO HAY MAS QUE AÑADIR. Supera a titulos como astral chain, fire emblen, devil may cry 5, sekiro, resident evil 2 remake. Etc
    Tecnicamente es abrumador, jugablemente es divertidisimo. La mayor produccion de este tipo que he visto

    Is the best good looking game of this generation.
    All Gears games have great mechanics and action, but in this 5th episode, there is more light effects, more particles, more action...

    I’ve played all the Gears games and this one fell short. The campaign felt lacking in substance and I think they could’ve made a better story, I never felt engage and many of the battles felt repetitive and boring, even the battle with the final boss was so disappointing that when it ended I was like, that’s it? This is the end of the game? Certainly I was expecting more. Anyway I alwaysI’ve played all the Gears games and this one fell short.

    The competitive mode it’s the same as the previous game, it’s just great, the maps tho, they feel so constrained, I prefer the ones that have more open spaces and gives you more ground to cover. It’s an ok game, but not the amazingness I was expecting.

    this video game was beautiful. the game design very nice and well managed to make you immerse in various situations. the very beautiful story, however, presents some moments of death. precisely for this small defect the game does not take 100 but I very willingly give it a 90.

    Pros: Improved fresh campaign compared to Gears 4. A few bugs though.
    Cons: I've played every Gears game. And this game has made me decide I will instead be getting a PS5 next generation. Rod and Phil you guys are not smart and are failing at producing AAA must have 1st party games completely. This game is still just more corporate microtransaction bullsh*t. Nobody should buy this game.

Rod and Phil you guys are not smart and are failing at producing AAA must have 1st party games completely. This game is still just more corporate microtransaction bullsh*t. Nobody should buy this game. The progression system just like with Gears 4 is trash and not fun. TC and Rod lied to everybody that this game would be players first and it is 100% not. Fun should always be first but Microsoft continues to not understand that as a company. Gears 3 continues to be a gold standard Microsoft fails to reach. When a progression system pushes you hard to not enjoy the game or not make the best play in a match but instead try to achieve a certain tasks in each multiplayer session you have f*cked the multiplayer. When a progression system constantly demands you play as characters you don't like or want to you have f*cked the multiplayer. Also instead of Gears 4s grindy lootbox microtrasaction system they've replaced it with a convoluted microtransaction mess with nothing of value to unlock and with no reasonable or fun way to progress toward unlocking anything. The only way to unlock anything of value will cost you at least an extremely excessive extra $40, and even that content is time limited... absolutely shameful. They clearly marketed this game and redesigned the microtrasaction system to confuse customers and make it difficult for reviewers to warn players all with the main goal to limit outrage during launch. This is unfriendly and unethical behavior. Like with Gears 4 this games player base will die massively as players are left with again a trash progression system that is not centered around FUN and the multiplayer gameplay itself. Under no circumstance should you trust TC and Rod again and buy Gears 6 in the future. Gears of War is now a dead franchise that lies and manipulates you. Its not surprising at all now that they made Gears 5 crossplatform with PC since they basically killed the franchises playerbase with 4s grindy lootbox microtransactions system. But after this I don't know what TC will do to trick players to buy 6. I believe this game just spent the last bit of trust players had with TC and Rod. For me this game was going to decide if I switched to PlayStation for next gen and this game has decided it for me Microsoft is not serious about creating Fun AAA games. Microsoft Xbox is not PlayStation and they are certainly not a Nintendo. Microsoft and TC have taken yet again another stupid pointless approach to gaming that destroys player trust. For many this was Microsofts last chance. This game just won PlayStation 5 the gen console war.

Gears 5 is not perfect but it is still good more improve than 4 however there are some issues with the game that I need to personally need to address.

    1. Microtransactions - We have seen a lot of games with microtransactions and there is no surprise that Microsoft would add them into gears. For me personally I find this un acceptable, they basically copy the layout of the store and the purchase of cosmetics off a fornite and it is silly for the coalition to do that. Microtransactions should not be in the game, battle pass I will accept but the Microtransactions that has been inputted on this game is just silly.

    2. Part open world - the campaign was better than 4 do not get me wrong, however there was no need to go part open world on ACT 2 and 3 for this game, if they kept it as it was and improve on the excitement mission like gears 3 has, it would be a really good experience for this franchise. Some people that are new to the game might skip these side locations and focus on the story. They should have expanded more. Also is it wired that ACT 4 has only got two chapters and there is no ACT 5 at all (same as Gears 4)

    3. Multiplayer - This is my final point and that is the multiplayer, I have played this mode a few days and I think the skill match making on this game is not good and the amount of people get killed by pro that jump cover to cover to kill the new players is not balanced. I think they need to improve on the Multiplayer in my opinion to make it a fare system. (like gears 2 and 4)

    Overall the Horde mode is good apart from the 1 character limitation and the new escape mode is good as well. The three points I have made at the top is what let the game down a it but I gave this a 8/10 because I think it is still a good game. I will admit I am a gears fan but I would not say it is the work gears game, not by a long shot. Gears 5 would be at the top 3 best gears game, then 2 being a number 2 and 3 at the top. I hope the coalition will listen to some feed back and improve on this to make gears 6 a good experience.

    Honest to God, I was just about to sell my Xbox, because the PS4 was just too good in itself (not mentioning the Game Pass, which in theory sounds great, but it just makes you have a huge library of unfinished games) - but this saved my console for another month or two. It looks great, it sounds great, it plays great and finally for the xbox one exclusives it has a story as well...

    It's a decent game, but I can't help but to give it a middling review because of the botched launch. So many errors, bugs, and headaches. I've lost progress on levels multiple times because of glitches, making me not even want to play it any more.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have been playing Gears since the first one came out back in 2006 so I know what to pretty much expect of the game. I have nothing bad to say about the campaign, as always. Beautiful graphics, great storyline and above all the gameplay itself was smooth (Xbox One). Oh man, those graphics... I already said beautiful graphics but I have to repeat myself because that's how great they were. The facial animations, the weapons, even the voice acting was perfect. Music to my ears. I won't lie, I died, A LOT, but granted I played on insane as always, since I'm a bit insane myself. The game itself has a long campaign, which I love, took me about 31 hours. Who doesn't love a game with a long storyline? Spoiler alert, the ending was phenomenal. It's pretty much all of Gears in a nutshell. I was sitting like a moron in front of my screen with my jaw hanging to the floor. Just an amazing experience. Even though I have mostly positive things to say about GOW 5, of course it comes with its negatives. I can't say there's any game, at least for me that doesn't come with SOME downfalls. The biggest nuisance in this game for me was the crashing. The game froze up, a lot. I would have to resort to dropping a grenade on myself so I can pretty much die and restart from my last save in order to correct the issue. Let's talk multiplayer: Horde (YAY), versus mode or escape. Horde is even more badass then it's ever been. Since each player brings something different to the table, it just makes wave after wave more enjoyable and more intense. I'm ashamed to say I only reached save 38. As a veteran of the game, how dare I! But just comes to show how much they amped up the difficulty. Loved it! Now, when it comes to the matchmaking, it's 50/50 here. I don't believe the system always made the best matchmaking setups, due to the fact it was rarely balanced, at least in my experience. Given that though, it's by far the best multiplayer they've achieved yet. Entering the Escape maps which seemed to be highly unpredictable was a rush and the new Arcade versus was just beautiful chaos. I was constantly experiencing tachycardia while playing Arcade in the most amazing way ever. Kept me constantly on my tippy toes. Piece of advice to my fellow female gamer, don't play this in heels like I did at one point. Yes, I was playing in heels, and yes I stood up often due to my adrenaline and YES, I did fall once, maybe twice? Okay... maybe more than twice. Long story short, if you're a Gears fan from the beginning or you're just starting out the series for the first time, you will 100% enjoy about every aspect of the game. Everything from the amazing graphics, great storyline and smooth gameplay to the multiplayer modes and even those annoying little campers that hide in one spot during matchmaking that makes you want to pull your hair out or in my case use words I didn't know existed or throw a controller or two against the wall (and maybe one of my heels too, maybe...)

    Magnifique le nouveau Gears of War ! éblouissant et proposé d'office à 60 im/s et en 4K sur la X (ou aux trois quarts de la 4K même dans des conditions extrêmes selon Digital Foundry, l'autorité en la matière) autant dire qu'on en prend plein les mirettes !

    Pas vraiment un monde ouvert (loin de là même), le Gears 5 sort néanmoins de son couloir habituel pour offrir quelques balades dans deux grands espaces et par la même occasion des missions secondaires très optionnelles mais assez bienvenues... on fait du ski, on surfe sur le sable, on éradique la vermine... on sauve le monde (encore une fois) : tout ça, ça reste du classique.

    L'histoire (?) tente de raconter quelque chose cette fois-ci mais se prend vite ses grosses bottes dans le tapis... car d'une part, c'est invraisemblable et d'autre part, c'est assez ridicule... Gears 5 tente également de mieux caractériser ses personnages mais le fait si maladroitement qu'on se croirait dans un feuilleton de la télé brésilienne. Quelle idée, franchement... dites-moi juste où passer les grands coups de karcher, où et quand nettoyer et j'y vais ! je m'en fous des états d'âme de l'équipe ou de leur 'parcours'...

    Qu'importe, si la jouabilité reste lourdaude, elle n'en est pas moins toujours très spectaculaire avec -c'est nouveau- les capacités du robot ménager à tout faire, Jack, qu'on peut améliorer au fur et à mesure. Et les nombreux réglages concernant la manette permettent d'ajuster au mieux la maniabilité générale.

    Mais bon, j'en suis aux deux tiers de la campagne et là, je suis bloqué... parce qu'un script ne s'est pas déclenché. J'ai dû "manuellement" si j'ose dire aller au lieu suivant en me fiant au dialogue, car aucun point de repère n'est apparu ; sur place, les choses semblent reprendre leurs cours normal -après avoir réchargé, car le jeu était coincé devant la porte- mais impossible de faire entrer le robot dans le bureau ou de pirater l'interface à pirater : l'action contextuelle n'apparaît pas...

    Donc, quand ça sera débuggué, le Gears nouveau devrait être agréable... mais pour l'instant, il faut attendre les patchs. Heureusement qu'il ne m'a coûté que quelques euros (à peine 3 par mois pendant 3 mois) via une promo du Game Pass parce que sinon, je lui aurais collé 1. Un bug pareil (plus un autre lors d'une mission secondaire) ce n'est pas acceptable.

    Epilogue : là, rebelote, je me retape le chapitre 3 en espérant ne pas rencontrer de nouveau le bug bloquant... j'aimerais quand même si c'était possible finir cette campagne... et paf ! ça re-merde mais à un autre endroit, juste après le retour à l'aéroport : l'avion ne décolle pas, le script est enrayé et me re-voilà sans objectif principal !

    ça commence à me gaver : malgré déjà quelques patchs, ils sont plus occupés à régler les microtransactions qu'à débugguer leur jeu... sorti trop tôt et tout cassé en fait. Je descends donc à 3 et je mets mon mouchoir dessus. Dans un an ou deux, le Gears 5 sera peut-être réparé...

    Feels like 2009, with invisible walls every where you try to go, have complete the very short campaign but still not been given the achievement for doing it. Game feels rushed and from another time

    Ich war nach dem 4.Teil gespannt was da weiter kommt. Und ich muss sagen ich bin begeistert. Die Geschichte nimmt jetzt erstmals nach Gears 3 wieder einen richtigen Kurs. Die Grundmechanik ist grandios wie immer und würde sinnvoll ergänzt (Jack).
    Die weitläufigen Areale fügen sich Super ein und sind Toll umgesetzt . Einfach ein Top Game das ich jedem nur empfehlen kann.

    Gears 5
    I don’t see the hype.
    I’ve been a playstation guy my whole life, Ive never owned an xbox, but thanks to Microsofts decision to make their exclusives available on pc, im able to experience this side of the tracks, and I was so excited to do so, I never played a Gears of War Game, so I sat down on youtube, got a story recap and hopped in… This is a 3rd person shooter that takes

    I don’t see the hype.
    I’ve been a playstation guy my whole life, Ive never owned an xbox, but thanks to Microsofts decision to make their exclusives available on pc, im able to experience this side of the tracks, and I was so excited to do so, I never played a Gears of War Game, so I sat down on youtube, got a story recap and hopped in…
    This is a 3rd person shooter that takes places after the events of gears of war 3 and 4.. you get part of the story at the beginning of this game…
    I wasn’t too attached or interested after the intial run down, but still hyped for the gameplay, the tutroal starts, the game is having me look up to determine my input preferences, that alone had me excited for how neat this game was going to be…
    But I just never was blown away…
    The story telling and level design is just so bland.. nothing took my breath away or made me feel like wow, this is what ive been missing all of these years… I do love the weapon variety.. but when it comes down to combat, controls here are so unintuitive that it just constantly pulls you out of the game…
    its okay to have the same control scheme as call of duty… they have it down… I don’t want to hold a buttown down to run, let me just click my stick… the fast reload mechanic makes you take your eye off of the action.. all of the mechanic decisions just makes me feel like Im juggling as Im shooting.
    Throughout this 12 hour campaign yo udo have a little squad with you that changes as the story progresses.. and these members can be controlled by real people locally and online…which is what I highly advise…
    As the ai here is completely useless…
    Dels the type of guy to yell “nows our chance shoot his back!” And not do ****
    Amking these drawnout unfun boss battles even more unfun and frustrating at times as you die over and over…
    Does the boss know where I am Del?
    That’s probably because im the only one of use shooting any bullets.
    Who isn’t useless though is your robot companion jack…
    He sticks with you through the end as youre searching the world to upgrade his abilities that are unlocked as the story progresses…
    back to the mechanics issues though.. shuffling through jacks abilities mid combat or even post or pre combat is unintuitive and feels like a jumbled jumbled mess
    but jack is easily my favorite part of this game…
    Its just a shame that jack is the only incentive to explore though…
    The world and level design here in Gears 5 again is just so bland, so uninteresting and boring…
    there are a couple open world sections of the game where you can go explore a little if youd like.. but again.. nothing about this world made me care to do so…
    another giant issue I had with this games campaign is its awful progression indicators in story…
    don’t dare pause the game and com back to it later, because youl lhave no idea what youre supposed to be doing… Gears 5 does put little markers on the map for you to go to… but I would much prefer they put them on items im supposed to be interacting with instead of running around in circles looking for a switch or door with a footprint or hand print on it… it breaks the flow, takes me out of the world.. its just bad game design…
    And when it comes to performance, Gears 5 is awful on PC..
    I ran into constant crashes and Act 2 made the game completely unplayable.. literally… after searching the internet, ive discovered that this is not an uncommon issue.. updating all of my drivers did fix the crashing issue for me, but the game still stutters when too much is going on on screen.. I missed half of the final cutscene because it was stuck… I had to go to youtube to rewatch the ending.. and wouldn’t you know their cutscene video was lagging too.
    Online here is pretty typical fun third person shooter competitive stuff…
    Entertaining, nothing really wrong with it but nothing here to keep me hooked.. I felt no urge to play after playing for review purposes.. again like the campaign really bland.
    Gears 5 is a good game… But as a flagship exclusive from microsoft… I feel that xbox loyalists deserve better
    Theres nothing here to incentivize a purchase other than the continuation of a beloved franchise…
    And If you are buying to continue the story, I would recommend the xbox version over the pc so you can actually see it all.
    I give Gears 5
    a 7/10

    Pleasant surprise for a franchise that was facing increasing apathy, visuals are great, gameplay is solid, AI is not 100% dumb, acts clip along nicely although act 4 is a little short, The cast of characters is great and imo they are much better acted/written this time round, overall A very good game and a great entry in the franchise.

    "Gears 5," not "Gears of War 5" is one of the most disappointingly mediocre games I've played in the last five years. It is so god awfully behind the curb of other franchises which are actually trying to spice things up, Gears 5 doesn't even try to innovate beyond making its name shorter.

    "Gears 5," not "Gears of War 5" is one of the most disappointingly mediocre games I've played in the last five years. It is so god awfully behind the curb of other franchises which are actually trying to spice things up, Gears 5 doesn't even try to innovate beyond making its name shorter.

    Nearly a month after launch, Gears 5 is still very buggy, with characters getting stuck in scenery, easily getting sucked behind unfinished invisible barriers, and triggers that don't activate. The new 'third player' slot, Jack, is responsible for most of this, with his triggers not appearing sometimes, and his "floating" movement being so poorly programmed that he gets stuck on level terrain in places. Mind you, this is a character that doesn't ever touch the floor. Not to mention cutscenes that don't even trigger if you're playing as Jack.

    The story is worse than Gears of War 3. There's no plot until over halfway through, and all the plot that's introduced about 4 hours into the game just works up the presumed protagonist for Gears 6. Gears 5 is so bad, however, I would think only Microsoft's cash injections could save the series from the scrap pile. In any case, the game introduces or reintroduces side characters, kills them off, tells you to be sad about it, and then they're never mentioned again. Rinse and repeat for nearly every chapter. Ultimately, it ends on the worst cliffhanger I have ever, ever seen.

    The multiplayer is standard Gears of War fair with introduced casual modes that take the original Gears of War flavor of 'getting destroyed by the host' and uses server pockets to make the ping variation between players less frustrating. Being another third person game, however, with barely any competitive scene, I have no idea why you'd chose to play this over Fortnite, which runs on the same engine and has effectively the same gameplay besides building and "rodeo running."

    This is one of the best games I've played in a very long time, not just for Xbox, but in general.

    After being initially sceptical with the direction Gears 5 was taking, I was incredibly and pleasantly surprised with this game.

    The story is completely fleshed out in ways I was not expecting; the open world, the additional dialogue and the character addition and development throughout was spot on. The music has always been amazing in gears, and with the addition of open world settings, the score delivered that ambient/adventure music really well, but switched into its classic score when the time was right.

    The story included a lot of 'throwbacks' to old gears games which any gears fan will feel happy about and you're also rewarded nicely for your time exploring the open world.

    There were a few points where the graphics lacked a little texture, but not often at all. The story also ended slightly abruptly (similar to Halo 2 and Halo 5) and I was actually expecting a little more, but generally the pacing was never boring a very well done.

    Online; the game is amazing, although I feel it lacks a little 'weight/intensity' when it comes to how the guns and character movement sound and feel. Pretty sure that can be addressed with an update patch if enough people suggest it as The Coalition have already shown they're ready to improve the experience however they can. Aside from that, it really hits the mark. Fast, action packed and rewarding at every moment.

    Honestly, I never got into Gears at all. I've been an Xbox gamer since 01 and saw Gears in 06 and gave it a try. I wasn't a fan of the mechanics and it being a 3rd person shooter rubbed me the wrong way, so I gave up on it. As I grew up and matured, I saw this game was coming out and it was getting praise from the critics. So instead of played Gears 1-3, I watched YouTube videosHonestly, I never got into Gears at all.

As I grew up and matured, I saw this game was coming out and it was getting praise from the critics. So instead of played Gears 1-3, I watched YouTube videos summarizing the story of the 3, then I hopped on Gears 4 and I actually enjoyed it. A solid 8/10 from me.
    But, Gears 5, blows it out of the water. I wasn't sure how Kait being the main protagonist was going to affect me, I really liked JD in 4.
    You grow to really like Kait and feel for her situation as you learn more about her family and the link to the Locust. Del is a great co-companion and will give you a few laughs and Jack the robot was very well implemented into the schematics of the game.
    The semi-open world aspect of it was a blast and you can take your time and finish a couple of the secondary quests they offer. It's not as linear as previous games.
    I never thought I'd enjoy a Gears game this much, but they knocked it out of the park with this one. I'm officially a fan and will continue playing.

NOPE. if I could take back the electricity and bandwidth wasted on downloading this game, I would. It has ruined Gears for me. Nobody is playing GOW4 anymore and GOW5 is TERRIBLE

    How these shill critics give it 90 or 100 I will never know, and an average player rating of 8.7? These are blatant lies. The scores are being manipulated and here is your proof. I know lots of people through GOW4 and we were all generally excited about GOW5, playing it as soon as it was released. We are mostly Horde players so were interested in that but that's completely ruined. I don't even know what this extra nonsense they added is for and why it's only one character per skill set. Have they never heard of personalization or customization? What if a lady player wants that skill set with a female character or vice-versa?

    I don't like the Horde mode, which is what I was looking forward to most. Fine, so Horde is bad, how about the campaign? Reading the reviews from "professional critics" you would think this was some sort of novel experience or polished within an inch of its life. NOT EVEN CLOSE. This game sucks. I described it to my GOW4 mate as, "borderline homosexual". The dialogue is so tedious and childish. How any developer is allowed to make an 18 + game and write it for 12 year olds is beyond me. This title is aimed squarely at SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN and holds no interest for me as an adult

    I've never written a review for a video game before but I was so disappointed by GOW5 and indeed by the blatant shilling going on here, there and everywhere, that I felt the need to express myself

    If anyone paid the full special edition pre-order price on this game and maybe added a season pass or whatever other money grabs, wow, biggest rip off in video game history. I mean that. This game isn't worth $5 never mind $80 and is a downgrade from GOW4

    End result? All of the fanatic GOW4 players who I'm friendly with no longer play any Gears title. A bunch of people I know uninstalled the game to save disc space - that's how bad this game is. GOW4 was 100% the reason why I bought an XB1 and GOW5 was going to be my reason for investing in the XB1X. It is safe to say I won't be buying that console to play this trash game

    ** For those saying this game looks amazing, I have a bunch of free eye tests vouchers from Specsavers. It's an impressive achievement for the developers to take this AAAA ++++ title and turn it into something I can't stand looking at. I've been playing MGSV lately, which is like 4 years old and it can beat GOW5 with one hand tied behind its back. GOW4 is better in every respect including graphically as I hate the new cartoony look of GOW5

    Gears of War 5 continues the stellar performances of the previous cast where Gears 4 left off. As you navigate the most diverse and immersive terrain in the history of the franchise, it is easy to get lost in the open world as you hunt down collectables and upgrades for Jack your robot companion. The core gameplay is still intact and some quality of life adjustments have been made in order to truly move forward with the series in a way which is both honoring the past chapters and also setting the stage for new stories to be told in a diverse selection of paths in the future. The multiplayer is phenomenal as well, arguably the best in the series and it has been a real joy to enter into the fray once more having been gone from multiplayer online gaming for several years. While I wish I could give the game a perfect score, I have to dock it simply because of minor technical glitches in the form of the classic "Lancer goes through solid objects while revved up" schtick and pieces of debris and even dismembered pieces of enemy units floating or gliding across the maps on a semi frequent occassion.
    The choices the developers made with the story were superb and I cannot wait to play it again as soon as these kids go to bed. Solid 9/10 or higher and a real must play not only for Xbox players, but gamers and story enthusiasts of all kinds.

Horde has ditched the amazing horde lite version meaning you need to seemingly put close to three hours into the dull grind. It's campaign is fun and interesting, unfortunately much like the rest of the game it suffers from being a repetitive mix of shooting, waking and shooting. It uses open map's for the campaign however it seems to have minimal detail and looks all too similar

    Tras un "prólogo" de más de dos horas completamente palomitero a la par que lineal y pasillero (llamémoslo conservador) la campaña pierde todo fuelle y no sabe gestionar correctamente sus secciones "abiertas", como la de la nieve que no es más que un desierto helado vacío con 4 accesos contados. Muy mediocre en búsquedas e inexistente en backtracking. Ni siquiera sabe dar tiroteos y eventos intensos en estas partes por norma. Muy pocos enemigos también. No da la talla. Gears 5 no es un semiebierto real, es un juego que pudiendo haberlo sido tiene miedo de serlo. No es mal material pero arriesga muy poco y acaba muy por debajo de lo esperado. Es un juego de 6 o 6,5 y no más. Está bien pero no mata. Mediocre. No es lo que dijeron ni mucho menos. Mintieron descaradamente. Eso sí, por bugs cruciales como lo que trae, entre ellos crasheos, archivos de salvado corruptos, coleccionables fantasma y hasta logros rotos, merecería el suspenso.

    Then you go into act 2 & the game forces you to play as Kait... and it all goes down hill from there.

    Kait ruins the entire game. She's a selfish POS who abandons everyone to go on a journey to find herself. She's literally just fighting for herself. Nothing is gained on this journey either, only lost. You lose one of 2 main characters at the end, and it feels really like it's just being set up. If you've never played the old gears games you'll probably choose to kill one character, if you've literally only played Gears 5 you're probably gonna choose to kill the other character since you rarely see him & built zero attachment to him the entire game.

    The open world is also bland & empty. Imagine playing in an open world in some weird vehicle that makes zero sense driving & stopping at an area that looks cool only to find one gun & a component piece for your robot. Now multiply this by 100. There is literally no reason to explore in this game. Nothing is gained, much like Kaits journey. It's all filler content meant to pad game time.

    The game shines when you are actually in a fight, shooting, dashing, chainsawing enemies but these moments are so spread out the game feels like half a game. It doesn't help much that you're forced to play as kait for nearly the entire campaign. She's a horrible character now, so focused on herself that she forgets about pretty much everyone around her & what they've done to help her. In gears 4, she had more personality, pazazz & was actually fairly likeable. Now she's just broody, emo, angry, hating the world & everything in it. She's just an SJW now, fighting for nothing & representing nothing but her own self interests.

    Gears of Wahmen, Gears of Woke, Gears of WTF ever you call it, it's a crappy campaign that makes you not want to play the game anymore.

    Bring back Marcus or his son JD as the main protagonist. Gears is supposed to be about Marcus & Gears 4 was supposedly passing on Marcus' legacy to his son, but whoever was put in charge of Gears 5 threw that out the window because they wanted diversity or whatever in their campaign. Diversity doesn't make the game's story better, good writing does. Whoever wrote this game's campaign obviously has something against Marcus & JD because this game changes their characters personality traits & the ending can basically ruin them both entirely depending on your choices.

    Um dos melhores games de TPS de todos os tempos e o melhor Gears já lançado, ação do início ao fim com novas mecânicas e suas essência mantida. gráfico ultra modernos e realistas. Uma obra prima.

    I like the Gears series a lot, especially playing it in co-op with a friend.

    New Gears does a great job of giving you a lot of challenges to take on together all while enjoying the beautiful and colorful landscapes peppered with the oil of drones you devastated and the blood of Locust you've fed some bullets.

    New Gears does a great job of giving you a lot of challenges to take on together all while enjoying the beautiful and colorful landscapes peppered with the oil of drones you devastated and the blood of Locust you've fed some bullets. The plot is interesting enough, and the characters seem to behave very naturally which adds up to the credibility of the world.

    But I simply couldn't enjoy the game because of how it's riddled with bugs and server issues. Every single session we had there were at least two times (often this number could go up to 5-6 times for a 2-hour session) we needed to restart the game because we've stumbled upon a game-breaking bug or the connection was lost.

    I'm going to come back to the game in a month or two to finish the campaign and update the review. But for now, I can't recommend this title to anyone who was planning to enjoy it with a friend.

    Looks great but plays like a XBOX 360 game. The shooting is wonderful. The Open world is a joke. And, I didn't care for story. The last Act almost saved it.

    Juego perfecto, de lo mejor de la generación. buenisimo gameplay, historia, banda sonora y sobre todo optimizacion en pc. 60fps clavados con una 1050ti 1080p y calidad grafica muy generosa en comparaci9n de otros titulos. Cada detalle del juego está muy bien cuidado. sin bugs, cinematicas que se convierten en gameplay sin que te des cuenta, se nota que fue hecho con mucha dedicación.

    Gears 5 has been the most ambitious title in the franchise so far. The Coalition has really tried to expand upon the gameplay and the story. They have started to push the boundaries of what we know with Gears and take a few risks. They focused a lot more on story telling and giving us a reason to care about these characters. We see so much more emotional range from Marcus and company. TheGears 5 has been the most ambitious title in the franchise so far.

They focused a lot more on story telling and giving us a reason to care about these characters. We see so much more emotional range from Marcus and company. The story and character writing makes all feel so much more realistic. The open world portions of the campaign were a well needed chance to slow down to appreciate the game world. The free roam and side quests were an excellent addition to the Gears formula. The areas do feel empty sometimes, but it feels like they have built great base that can be improved upon with newer iterations of the series. The light RPG mechanics are welcomed addition as well. Using and leveling Jack up with new abilities adds even more depth to already solid gameplay. The gameplay itself is the same tight smooth 3rd person cover shooting that Gears has been famous for. Quality and smooth controls have always been a staple of Gears and the Coalition did not disappoint with 5. The graphical detail in this game is superb. On PC and the Xbox One X running at 4K 60 fps this game is a visual feast for the eyes. Multiplayer has been expanded as well and has something to offer for many different tastes. Everyone from a beginner to a hardcore gamer can find a mode to hop in and enjoy. Escape, Horde, PVP matches, there is no shortage of multiplayer sweetness. the same tight smooth controls, excellent graphics from the campaign are all present here as well. Over Gears 5 feels like a good start in a new direction. Is it perfect? No, but there is a great foundation with new mechanics and ideas that could be expanded and improved upon. Gears 5 isn't a full blown reboot of the franchise, but an evolution. It still feels like Gears in every way and the new additions only add to the experience. This is a very solid game, and a huge improvement over Gears of War 4. Gears 5 could be the beginning of a new Era for Gears games. Expand

    Este o el 2, no se cual me ha gustado mas. Muy recomendable, sobre todo, despues del fiasco del 4. Quizas el peor de todos, para mi.

    Gears 5 is an odd thing; it's neither a grand leap forwards, nor a complete rehash of what came before, and therefore sits somewhere in the middle of the two. On the whole, the improvements do outweigh the negatives (the non-linear approach to campaign levels and the small changes to horde mode being some of the most notable), and while The Coalition still has some work to do to really make the series its own, this is a far bolder and more varied approach the relatively safe Gears 4. If you love shooters and you want a good place to jump back into the series, this is perfect place to work the rust out of your lancer.

    Gears 5 offers a solid portion of brutal action with several refreshing new things. If you have intentionally avoided games from this series, the fifth sequel probably won´t change your mind, but if you are looking for a quality action game and you are still a fan of multiplayer, try it.

    Gears 5 proposes a breathtaking solo campaign and a generous array of multiplayer modes. Even if the recipe remains classic, we really want to go through with it. The characters are rather well written, the environments are often spectacular, and Jack the robot adds some salt to the gameplay. A visual feast and glorious action game that perfectly demonstrate Xbox One X's true power.
