I'm pretty happy with what I see from the reviews so far. This game will suffer from being the fifth installment in the series, but in actuality this is the first outing by a new AAA studio. It's also suffers from having to spread it's resource into three group Campaign, Multiplayer and Horde mode. To any reviewers or players that review or intend to play base solely on the campaign expect to be somewhat disappointed. It's to be expect that there will be problem in pacing and general storytelling from a new AAA studio. Hopefully, this is something that will improves with next installments. The team at coalition should be proud of themselves and achieving a metacritic score around 85 is an accomplishment. ***It's b*llsh!t that I have to wait until October 11th when ultimate edition get it 4 days early***

If it makes you feel any better, Ultimate Edition people don't even get all the goodies that we LE Console buyers do!

They do not!!!! Man seeing yours makes me so hype about getting my.....just a few more hours!!!!



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

Just browsed a few pages back for the pictures, damnit that console and controller is sexy, congratz, I am really liking the Xbox-franchise since Phil took it over and the xbox one S, including this Limited Edition, is just very sexy :) enjoy the game!

Very solid reviews.

Looks like as so often happens these days they went 40/60 effort-wise on campaign/multiplayer.

At least is has couch co-op, will run it through with my brother!



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

Better than I predicted. And it looks much better than the beta.

Not feeling the twitch streams I have been watching though. Might rent down the line for SP.



I might have to pick this up on Day 1. I wasn't planning on but it looks too good.


Really jealous of you LE console owners. One of the best looking consoles I've seen in recent times.

Pretty good score. At least it's not Judgement.



Not a bad score. Hoping to get it soon.

I'm going to post screens, but in a different thread. So, let's move any of those (1080p/1440P/4K) to that topic.

Your own screens? If so, have you had any issues on Win 10?



Multiplayer is the most balanced and smooth Gears we've had, I'm having a blast! Coalition managed to make it accessible for newcomers by balancing the pacing and weapons. Epic tried to add "noob" weapons that only ended up being abused by skilled players.

Matchmaking has some issues, core modes take a while to load and teams are often uneven. Just played 3 vs 5 king of the hill match..good that there's no bots though. Those belong in social playlist



I've just finished the campaign! Ordered the collectors edition and got early access. It's a sin that this game is not reviewed higher. This game is amazing.
