    Great game on its own right, although one of the worst in the Gears franchise. It still earns an 8, which is a great credit to the rest of the Gears games.

    This game is no as bad as people said.
    True, it is not as dark and damp ad the first trilogy, but I like the new colorful aesthetics.
    This game is better than number 5.

    Um ótimo jogo com gráficos lindos, eu acho que o que mais me chama atenção são seus cenários absurdamente lindos, todas as paisagens são ótimas de se admirar, fora o multiplayer que me rendeu muitas horas de diversão.

    This was my first Gears game and I really loved it, the sorry was very sad and at some points, I almost cried especially at the end.

    Pros:
    Great story
    Great visuals
    Good gameplay

    Cons:
    Fights are very repetitive and get boring

    This game is perfect in every way but for 20 dollars is 9 hours terrible. The game play is good but for 9 hours? The story isnt that intriguing that i would pay 20 dollars for that. The game is very good and graphics are also pritty good. I had a lot of ammo trouble to the point that i would rage quit for 2 days and then come back and fail again on easy difficulty.

    This is an amazing game and one of the best of the generation. Graphically it looks just as good if not better than many next Gen games. Story wise is amazing.

    It’s a fun game with a great story and great characters, it’s also super funny. If you have game pass playing this along with the other gears games is a no brainer. If you have a Xbox and have been on the fence about gears 4, I say do it! You won’t regret it!

    This game is clearly getting review bombed by PlayStation fans. The Xbox store has it at a 4.5/5 stars. Critics also loved it. This game is criminally overlooked.

    Having played the original trilogy, and expecting an equal or better game overall.
    I must say I wasn't disapointed. The Coalition delivered a really high quality game, without sacrificing what made the original trilogy great.
    Step on the shoes of JD Fenix and welcome a new group of characters that have a lot to demonstrate.

    Fue una delicia visual para el año 2016, simplemente no podía creer lo que estaba viendo, todo se sentía fluido y la calidad del sonido era muy buena, la historia es buena, los jefes son divertidos el unico pero son las hordas en el modo historia, se sienten algo forzadas.

    in principle, not bad, the mechanics are normal, the graphics are also good, but the plot is blurry and a lot of things are not told, we could have tried

    A história é meio infantil, maneira clássica de fazer jogos da Microsoft na oitava geração de consoles, mas pode render algumas horas de entretenimento. O multiplayer é, ou melhor, foi muito bom, porém o jogo já está morto hoje em dia.

    Gears of War 4 is an absolute amazing game. It allows you to enjoy the great shooting mechanics that Gear franchise is known for with new weapons, enemies and good new characters. Gorgeous visuals even in 2021. The sound and story are great as well. The only thing I could complain about is the lack of an interesting enemy in the first half of the game.

    Gears of War 4 was not better than the original trilogy but it was definitely better than Judgement. JD's character falls a bit short but still a decent Gears game.

    O jogo é bom em historia e jogabilidade mas o que estragou o inicio foi a parte da Jinn enche e so começa a melhorar na parte dos Swarms

    I love this series. This game gives you what you expect, but in a real good way. Along the way they throw in a number of nice "diversions" from the regular pattern to keep things interesting. So a blast to play, and once again filled with lots of chunky men candy :-)

    2/7/21-2/14/21 100% Story

    Loved it! You can definitely see a bit of a switch from the original trilogy, but everything is improved in my opinion. You're mostly playing as JD, it might be a bit of a spoiler to say to much about him. He's an ex-COG soldier that winds up in the middle of a mission to save the planet from a new threat, even worse than Locusts or Lambent. There was a    2/7/21-2/14/21 100% Story

    There was a bit more humor in the quips between you and your squad that was surprisingly funny for a game in this genre. JD, Del, and Kate are all great characters that mesh really well together. Not to mention the returning characters we all know and love.

    The gameplay is still fantastic Gears-style cover shooting and the new enemies and weapons make the formula even better. There were a few times when I felt a little bored with one aspect or another, but right around the corner was another new element to bring my attention right back in.

    I also tend to forget that Gears games usually have a really well done horror section or two. The pacing is done in such a way that you aren't always involved in epic firefights, sometimes you are slowly moving through a creepy abandoned area expecting an ambush around every turn.

    It did seem to wrap up and end kind of abruptly, but since they are continuing the story into Gears 5 that makes a bit of sense.

    Overall, excellent and highly recommended!    … Expand

    The Coalition has managed to successfully bring every great elements from previous games into a new setting. Whether you go for single-player, multiplayer or horde mode, GoW4 hast plenty to offer. The visuals are stunning and the gameplay is the best in the series thus far; and despite shortcomings in the story and development of characters, GoW4 is easily one of the best third-person shooters of this generation.

    The Coalition’s development team did a fantastic job adopting the Gears of War series. They’ve preserved what makes it special in our hearts and added in new bells and whistles which are absolutely welcome.
