    short story, but great quality. the only thing that I didnt like its that you need to play it in the new xbox one to capture the full HD experience.

    The games looks and plays fantastic no matter which Xbox one console you have, but for sure it looks at its best on a 4k tv and an Xbox One X.

    Pretty much similar to the previous entries in the series. With some update graphics and gameplay. Decent story, slightly above average overall if you enjoy third person shooter.

    Played the entire franchise and the new games modes make this one my favorite. Graphics are really good as well as the servers. Do not like the scrap system and the game now has a marketplace feel where they charge you for everything

    Have a hard time finding 2 player local play games I can play with my son. This one fits the bill. There were a few major glitches that happened where we had to go back a save point so we could proceed but all and all a good game.
