    Don't get me wrong, the steelbook is cool but the game lacks a lot. I fell asleep playing it and the story is just bland. Maybe I'll go back to playing it someday but honestly.. it was so boring. Gears needs to go back to its roots.

    For as much hype as this game had I was very disappointed in how short the game play mission was. Even though the graphics are more advanced the storyline stunk.

    It doesn’t have the same look nor feel of the first 4 gears. The game play wasn’t that great and the online is horrible. I’m going to stick with gears of war 4 for a while or until they bring back gears of war.

    Every time I get a steelbook edition from Best Buy, there are substantial dents on it. I never have this problem with Amazon or Gamestop. Just saying.

    I'm very disappointed... I love this franchise but gears 5 has such an overpowered lancer that makes online gaming terrible.

    Buy this game ASAP! The gameplay is fluid with the cover shooting mechanics and progression. The graphics are mind blowing and take full advantage of current generation console technology. By now the bugs have been removed with an update. This game is addicting and is hard to take breaks from. The new weapons are are super fun and powerful.

    Great game so far. The only negative I can think of is the monetization.
