    This is a great addition to the Gears series. Having Jack as a usable tool was fun. Combat is as good feeling as ever, nice chunky feel as you take down the swarm!

    Have enjoyed playing this series from the beginning. And this is as enjoyable, if not even better. If you have played the others in the series, I am pretty sure that you will enjoy this.

    Personally felt like this was the weakest entry so far. Story is predictable and departure from previous entries. Gameplay and several multiplayer modes are the reason to buy this.

    Gears 5 is a great continuation. They’ve developed into a little bit of an sandbox open world. I thought it was okay. Still highly recommend if you’ve been a fan of the series.

    I have played the entire series. I know things have changed and some people don' tlike the newer content, but for me it is just a continuation of the original series. The mechanics are very similar, the story is similar with just newer characters and enemies. I love these games.

    While the campaign doesn’t match the level of the first two Gears of War games, it still is a great time. The multiplayer is solid as most of the Gears games have been. I would recommend this to anyone who loves third person cover based shooters or the Gears universe.

    Great game and value for Black Friday . Love the series mainly for campaign missions and some online deathmatch. Not as great as the first 3 but still engaging.
