    El juego es epico, tiene los mejores gráficos de la generacion, Solo XBOX puede brindarnos esta calidad de gráficos y rendimiento, quedaron muy ardidos los piperos de sony.

    El juego se me ha augurado en plena partida y no soy el único. Gráficos notables pero todo lo demás está muy visto. Cubrirse y matar lo he visto ya millones de veces

    This game is Broke! Simple as that, I have always enjoyed gears games, but I cannot even complete this game because of the game breaking bugs, specifically in act 3.

No after putting the game down for a couple weeks to wait for a patch so I would not have to replay a bunch of stuff, the patch still has not come and the game has been out almost 2 months now. I finally decided just to go back and replay a bunch of stuff....now the upgrade components for jack are bugged out and I cannot pick them up to upgrade jack and complete a side mission....This is absolutely terrible to have this many game breaking bugs in a triple A first party game. The graphics and game play are good, but the lack of urgency to fix these issues or make sure they work before release is pathetic. Expand

    Gears 5 is an irredeemable piece of garbage that should serve as a warning to publishers who give developers carte blanche to create ‘art’.

    After all this time I was expecting some real improvements but it feels more like a Gears 4.5 than a new game.
    It looks great, the characters have the same great charisma but the whole campaign feels the same year after year.
    I hope to see a real new Gears for the next generation.

    He jugado todos los gow desde el lanzamiento del primero en mi xbox 360, he seguido la saga desde entonces.

    Lamentablemente la historia de este último me ha decepcionado bastante, no pienso contaros spoilers, pero sin duda me hace pensar que la saga debió ser más bien una trilogía y Microsoft debió enfocarse en nuevas ips en lugar de quemar algo que estaba perfecto en la 3era entrega.

    Más allá de ser yo mismo un Gear de corazón, soy xboxer, y es por eso que me duele tanto el cómo nos escupieron en la cara con semejante trama tonta de este último juego, no me sorprendería que para el próximo gears metan a daywne la roca a repartir hostiazos sólo porque sí sin ningún sentido contra brumacs procedentes de neptuno....

    I really tried to love this game. But the campaign struggles to much. Yea the graphics are very good. But directly after act 1 you get to see the real struggles: Go from Point A to Point B and then go to Point C. Through a more than empty semi open world. it just feels like "push the stick in front and watch on your mobile phone until you are at your goal".

    Well, i dont like the open world. Gears of War dont Need that imho... I prefer the old Gear-Games much more. The graphics are nice.. but the atmosphere sometimes a little bit low..

    Eu gostaria muito de ter gostado e poder dizer algo a mais, além de ter achado este Gears 5 muito idêntico aos seus antecessores. Não inovaram em muita coisa, só corre e atira, mata mostros... A única "Inovação" que foi adicionada ao jogo, são as inúmeras "cutscenes" com intuito de prolongar o tempo de Gameplay. Porém não me senti imersivo na história, que é um tanto quanto enjoativa.

    Quanta raiva em ver produtoras rendendo-se a patrulha da lacração, já vi produtoras brigando por sua independência e por sua liberdade artistica, infelizmente não foi o caso desta, acabaram com a franquia, história muito forçada para caber dentro da nova filosofia. Ridiculo, muito triste

    Same old with a new coat of paint, does nothing new for the series. If you played the others there's no need to play this.

    Juego repetitivo,mala historia y muy continuista,no hay innovación en nada y es todo muy similar a sus antecesores.
    Un hilo argumental predecible y aburrido y mecánicas toscas.

    Another awesome shooter you can't get on any other console. Great story that advances the Gears universe into a whole new direction. Great open world gameplay and design, a real positive change to the series. The multiplayer has something for everyone. Horde, escape, PvP, all top excellent.

    Nothing new , don't have good story , nothing new in gameplay and same graphic that we saw in gears 4 , I think Microsoft must end this game before getting disappoint anymore.

    In terms of the multiplayer, gears 5 is a step in the wrong direction. This is like gears of war judgement all over again.

    The red cog taking up the entire screen and blocking vision when damaged is a terrible mechanic. And in conjunction with the low health and weird weapon tuning, the thing/essence that made gears of war gears of war has been lost. The whole point about gears of war

And in conjunction with the low health and weird weapon tuning, the thing/essence that made gears of war gears of war has been lost. The whole point about gears of war is that you can react to people shooting at you first and the interactions between players isn't cheap chaotic madness. But this has been lost completely. That which makes gears of war so different to your standard shooter has been lost completely.

    The game is a hollow experience overall and, for a reason I can't quite explicitly articulate, the kills and the in this game lack the feeling of satisfaction that the previous gears games had. Anyone with a half decent palate for gears of war as a franchise will be able to tell what I mean.

    Overall, I am very disappointed. And I think many other hardcore fans of the franchise will feel the same way.

    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.
