    You would think that rehashing the same material would get old but it doesn't. The story line here is fresh but with the same world.

    The game has really good graphics and plays like the classic Gears game but it doesn't really add nothing new to keep the series fresh.

    If you only wanna play the story this is great. If you're wanting the multiplayer there is very little different from gears 4. Even the majority of the maps are reused

    I'm a fan of the Gears game series and this game is what I expected. I like the Terminator angle, that was cool. I'd recommend it if you like third person shooter games.

    The iconic storyline continues, with great twists and turns. Enjoy that. As far as MP goes, even the developers admit its not done well. That should say enough.

    Xbox One title has gotten a major upgrade in regards to texture quality, framerate and lighting. 4K 60 and even a 120 mode for multiplayee mode. Excellent compelling story. Hands down one of the best Xbox exclusives.
