    This game looks great and plays well but the story is average and very short. The multiplayer is riddled with bugs, I am unable to play anything outside of a quick match and no progress is tracked.
    The achievements are bugged so that they wont unlock, I had 2 unlock and from there nothing.

    Best in the series for me. Can't wait till Gears 5! And just wanted to put this out there, for all the xbox fanboys complaining the 0's are from Sony fans only......Let's not forget that you all do the same thing with every PS exclusive. So if you don't want Sony fans trashing Xbox games, then don't trash Sony games. Simple.

    Gears of War 4 is a beauty. The graphics are incredible and successfully utilize the Xbox One's power. The story mode in Gears is what draws me in, and Gears 4 does not disappoint. Multiplayer plays well besides some issue finding matches, and the inclusion of loot boxes can be ignored

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Antes de jugar este juego escuche por muchos lados que este juego no esta a la altura de su famosa trilogia lo cual no le preste atención al jugarlo y al terminarlo me di cuenta de que es el mas débil de todos sin contar contar gears of war judgement los personajes no son tan memorables como Cole, Baird y Dominic de los 4 personajes los mejores son Kait y Marcus este ultimo gracias a dios sigue siendo el mismo que recordamos con una barba la cual mejora su diseño (como detalle).
    La duración es algo justa sin embargo el juego nunca me dio la sensación de estar haciendo algo importante que cambiara el rumbo de la guerra o asestar un golpe critico al enemigo.
    Como e dicho anteriormente el juego no me a dado la sensación de estar haciendo algo relevante y el jefe final es la prueba de este en el uno luchamos contra el general Raam, en el dos se da la batalla contra un Brumak Lambent el cual despues de su muerte termina undiendo Jacinto, en el 3 matamos ana mas ni nada menos que la reina de los Locust y en el gears of war cuatro nos enfrentamos a la Bestia Colmena la cual tiene un diseño el cual es propio de la saga sinonimo de que tiene un diseño epico sin embargo se ve como un subjefe antes que un jefe final y al matarlo no tiene un efecto en el mundo como los jefes anteriores.
    Y pasando a los puntos positivos el juego gráficamente se nota como uno de los pesos pesados de xbox one como siempre han sido los anteriores gears en la xbox 360 en sus respectivos años.
    El juego mantiene su clásica jugabilidad pero innovando en algunos aspectos entre ellos están saltar las coberturas sin necesidad de cubrirse, soportar las hordas con ayuda del fabricante, nuevos enemigos como los DeeBees y el enjambre en si.
    También este juego abre varias puertas para la siguiente entrega de gears la cual se ve bastante potente a comparación de esta enrega.
    Aunque el juego no te da la sensación de estar haciendo algo importante los momentos epicos están presentes en todo el juego desde huir de la llamarada, el escape en moto, la pelea contra el jefe final, el escape de las catacumbas, etc.
    Aunque sea el mas débil (nuevamente sin contar a judgement) no es un mal gears los demás gears anteriores dejaron la barra demasiado alta la cual este juego no pudo superar sin embargo este juego tiene momentos memorables dentro de la saga.    … Expand

    Big fan of the original trilogy. Finally got so time to lancer down some robots. Awesome - not!! Gears against robots is like Battlefield with aliens. Just feels wrong and out of place … And on the other side copying every mechanic from the original, even the tickers. Then the redundant dropships. Whole game feels soulless.

    Gears 4 was okay these games have always lingered from meh to alright and this one is no different. I get half way threw the game and then i start asking how much longer or when are you gonna give me something interesting and it never happens. if it means anything i liked this one better then 3 i guess not bad but nothing really all that special.

    Gears of War 4 is a pretty solid game. i enjoy it from beginning to end. The campaign is pretty good, and the multiplayer is fantastic. It's a run of the mill Gears game. Nothing special, nothing amazing, not terrible. It's a good game.

    Gears of War 4 is quite different of the original trilogy because. But it's an excellent game by its visual effects, its story, its excellent boss fight, its character, its multiplayer ...
    Better than Gears of War 3 but less than Gears 1 and 2.

    Gears 4 tem um início bem fraco as batalhas contra os robôs estão longe de serem tão divertidas quanto as batalhas contra os Locust mas também não são um completo desastre, outro ponto não tão positivo do jogo são os momentos em que toda a ação para e você tem que começar a construir defesa para proteger um determinado item e enfrentar hordas de inimigo o que não é de todo ruim já que diferencia um pouco a gameplay mas por ser um tanto quanto repetitivo e chato eu estou citando como um ponto negativo.
    Mas indo ao ponto em que o jogo começa para valer (no caso quando começamos a enfrentar os reais inimigos) o jogo realmente brilha e traz a essência dos Gears antigos com novos gráficos, novas armas e novos personagens o único quase problema dessa parte do jogo é que os chefes do jogo na sua maioria são chefes já vistos nos Gears antigos então senti falta de novos chefes tão legais quanto os do Gears 2 mas isso não chega a ser um problema. No geral Gears 4 é um jogo muito bom que usa a formula dos seus antecessores mas aprimorando tudo visto antes mas sem grandes inovações para chamar novos jogadores que não gostam dos antigos jogos da saga.    … Expand

    I'm not just disappointed with this game, I struck with how much I feel ripped off.

    The story and character development is cheap, the multiplayer doesn't offer anything new or exciting, the horde mode is inaccessible for offline users, and the weapons are complete downgrades.

    This game is an official nail in the coffin for this franchise to me.

    GoW in general is very nostalgic for me, especially GoW2.
    Sadly, for me that is, I still have lag to annoy me in GoW4, however there are different pros and cons this time.
    - Story Mode Most lame GoW story, with the exception of GoW5 with the "POLITICAL MESSAGE". I honesty didn't hate nor liked it. It's flat. Much like its characters. Much like its "new enemies" but with no variety.    GoW in general is very nostalgic for me, especially GoW2.

    - Story Mode
    Most lame GoW story, with the exception of GoW5 with the "POLITICAL MESSAGE".
    I honesty didn't hate nor liked it. It's flat.
    Much like its characters.
    Much like its "new enemies" but with no variety.
    The main issue is that the developers had no clue how to make GoW again, since the Locust were defeated.
    So instead making different enemies (like DB-Robots vs GOG), the tried to half ass their way to create a "new war" with the Swarm.

    Now, the swarm, have barely no explanation for their existence and the game doesn't even at least display difference from the Locust.
    They all go with skirts with shotguns screaming "human" instead of "ground walker".
    There's literally nothing. Even the enemy that holds the Bow has no unique look to him.
    Just a skirt and a hoodie.

    The main "new" characters are .. K, I guess.
    Kait looks cute (and in 5 looks like a FemiNazi)
    JD Fenix is really bland and doesn't represent the GoW theme.
    And Del.... is Finn for the new Star wars.

    I have nothing to say, just play story once and leave it there.

    - Versus
    Sweaty, Snarky and lots of old school MLG culture.
    It's amazing how Halo, who once was flooded with the MLG culture, is now filled with a different community (for the better), but Gears kept both it's original audience + Esports culture.
    I couldn't become an expect Gears play, since the Shotgun meta essentially revolved around connection speed and too much sweat.
    Back in Gears 2 + 3, I just rocked the HammerBurst.
    Now, since the sweaty community remained unlike the rest of us, the Hammerburst was removed from the default weapons category, and went back to be a power weapon.
    The power of the community man.... it's something

    - Horde (the reason why I still play this)
    Gears 2's horde was... whatever
    Gears 3's horde was in the right direction

    And 4 just brings a whole new way to play Gears4 with the classes and fortification.
    I honestly wish I could have my own premade team for harder difficulties of Horde, but I'm old now.
    But It's fine, since I can play Normal mode casually and have my 2 hours fun.

    The only issue is really with the playbase for horde, when total noobs join in, or mid quitters quit in the first rounds, it really sucks and when everybody leaves it's just no fun at all.
    If you have a friend, and one that is good at playing Gears, play split screen, it's hella fun.

    Summary:
    Gears 4 has it's different pros and cons, which are different from the other classic gears games.
    It has the best horde mode from the 5 that have
    It has an OK versus being dedicated to the OG fans
    And it has a story mode.... which it's FLAT

    Tive a chance de jogar Gears 4 recentemente e isso vindo de um cara que jogou todos os Gears anteriores, posso dizer que é um excelente jogo, não só visualmente , como em trilha sonora e gameplay, esse que sempre foi um dos fatores mais importantes de Gears, a The Coallition melhorou o gameplay, tornou as coisas mais rápidas, simples e fáceis, sem perder a essência da franquia. Todos osTive a chance de jogar Gears 4 recentemente e isso vindo de um cara que jogou todos os Gears anteriores, posso dizer que é um excelente jogo, não só visualmente , como em trilha sonora e gameplay, esse que sempre foi um dos fatores mais importantes de Gears, a The Coallition melhorou o gameplay, tornou as coisas mais rápidas, simples e fáceis, sem perder a essência da franquia. Todos os elementos clássicos estão aqui, um Carmine no jogo, a batida da guitarra, até as ondas de inimigos da campanha que vieram diretamente de Gears Judgement, tudo funciona bem e proporciona ação constante e uma diversão legal, mesmo que não tão variada como Gears 2 e 3. A história é mais simples, não é ruim, é mais bem desenvolvida que Gears Judgement, definitivamente, os personagens tem carisma, eles são legais, principalmente Kait, claro que não são fenomenais como os personagens originais, mas eu gostei, foram uma adição legal, você entende oq eles querem fazer ou não, oq estão pensando e como querem resolver as coisas, funciona bem e são personagens legais, mas que ainda não tiveram momentos grandiosos. O multiplayer é bom, honestamente ainda preciso jogar mais, mas pelo que eu vi, o forjador dá uma perspectiva diferente de se jogar o game. O final do jogo realmente fica aberto, cliffhangers sempre dividiram opiniões e entendo quem não gosta disso, no meu caso, sempre fui um fã disso, acho uma maneira legal de se deixar em aberto coisas que só terão continuação depois. Os easter eggs são espetaculares, Gears nunca pecou nisso, recomendo que quem não viu, procure sobre eles. O design dos inimigos também está ótimo, gostei de alguns dos inimigos novos, porém senti muita falta de antigos e clássicos inimigos, como os Tickers e Boomers, espero que retornem ou tenham uma versão Swarm parecida em Gears 5. Ter split screen é ótimo, são poucos os jogos hoje em dia que ainda investem nisso, Gears ganha meu respeito por mantê-lo. A dublagem é fenomenal , seja em português ou em inglês, trabalho de primeira. As novas armas são funcionais e interessantes também. Por fim, comparar esse jogo com Gears 3 não dá certo, entendo que foi o apse da franquia e o último game principal ( tirando Judgement ) , mas Gears 4 está começando uma história, introduzindo personagens e inimigos novos, ele não é uma continuação exata, ele é o primeiro jogo de uma nova trilogia, então deve ser comparado APENAS com Gears of War (2006) , que também estava começando, introduzindo personagens e os conceitos da trama e nesse caso, Gears 4 tem sim meu respeito, ele é um ótimo recomeço para a franquia, agora nos resta ver como Gears 5 e suas sequências irão desenvolver a história, pq Gears 5 precisa ter o nível do 2, como o 4 teve do 1 e assim por diante. Gamertag: Le Colchon /Recomendo esse jogo para quaisquer donos de um Xbox One, é um ótimo jogo, não excelente ou imperdível como alguns, mas é de alto nível e diverte bastante, apenas...falta alguma coisa nele.… Expand

    The Coalition brings to us a game that takes place 25 years after the original trilogy, and they do it very well, with new faces that try to be the next delta squad, the son of Marcus Fenix as the protagonist and a new enemy to confront, called The Swarm.

    Gears of War 4 plays it fairly safe but brilliantly executes on a variety-packed campaign and meaty multiplayer suite.

It has become tradition for me to coop this with someone on the hardest available difficulty so I can hit the ground running on the single player which this review will primarily be about.

    While I know that Coalition paid a lot of attention to the multiplayer as a lot of game developers do these days I was very satisfied with the main campaign. Gameplay is largely the same as it was for the early titles. Gears has always been a shooting gallery with cover tactic mechanics but its among the best shooting galleries you'd find out there on the market. New additions to the single player like a tower defense mode against AI wave attacks. Some new interesting weapons are added to the roster but the classics are also brought back in (torque bow FTW).    … Expand

    This game almost broke my heart. I love Gears of War since the first one and this game doesnt have in it. Its good for what it is but its not the GoW I used to love. Something is missing here, maybe the characters, maybe the setting (why they put robots in here?). Almost good but far from great.

    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 :-)

    The new chapter in the Gears of War saga is a fresh start with new and old faces coming together to face a new threat. This is the beginning of a new trilogy, and I was first skeptical of how they would follow the story after the third game's glorious ending.

But I must admit, I was impressed with how this game was handled.

    Gears of War 4's new characters are great, especially JD and Kait. I am glad that the future of the franchise has some interesting and well written protagonists to carry it on. Marcus will always be my favorite, and I am glad that he is back in all of his glory. In general, this game does a lot to continue the story and expand the Gears of War world. The writing has a more cinematic feel, with richer dialogues and more expressive characters. I am glad that the developers are taking full advantage of technological advancements to give us a great experience.

    The gameplay remains mostly the same, with a few minor alterations. I will always have fun playing the Gears of War games, and I don't think it is necessary to reinvent the wheel when it comes to the controls and combat. The new weapons are great, as well as the robot enemies. I think this game does a great job of changing the formula a little without leaving behind the things that make these games good in the first place.

    Overall, I think the story leaves a lot to be explored in future chapters. This series has a lot of potential to be one of the best in game history, and I will definitely be here to enjoy the ride.    … Expand

    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.

Amazing beautiful graphics and interesting story, I'd say this game is a worthy and good continuation from the original trilogy but just not as good. At least Gears 5 was better so that's a plus.

We all wanted something fresh with that game but what the devs gave us was beyond anything we could dream i feel. GEARS needs an answer like that...the mobility has to change, the cover shoot needs to be revamped , polished or removed.....

    Gears is starting to feel like button command action sequences instead of a fluid 3rd person shooter. I started Gears 5 and stopped because it felt more of the same.

    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.
