    Gears of War 4 is awesome and a challenging multiplayer game. First the campaign is awesome (you can play online with a friend) and multiplayer is fun, but not for the weak at heart. You really have to put in time to get good at this game.

    I have been playing this game almost non-stop since it came out. Great visuals, campaign, and of course multiplayer! Horde is my favorite! Ultimate edition also comes with the season pass, which is great if you want all the extra content!

    This game is sort of a retelling of Gears of War like Creed or the force awakens and the new characters are more likable than the previous games. Horde made some improvements by adding a market system and multiplayer is similar to Gears 3

    Gears of War 4 is the latest expansion into the Gears of War series. It is an excellent game with a compelling story and the multiplayer is definitely worth it. Horde mode is great and there's countless stuff to do for hours.

    GOW4 - Ultimate Ed w/preorder & Season Pass

    Preorder with Best Buy exclusive content and thr copper mug with coaster arrived super fast. Two days shipping was as expected as well as the packaging for delivery. The game and the preorder bonus came separately which was alright. The coaster came first. I initilly though it was the game but i had to wait until around I think lunchtime to actually play the game cos that package arrived later in the day. Nonetheless everything was as expected. The game is amazing and really throws you back into the thicj of the story. Multi-player is challenging. The bonus dL for the previous xbox360 GOW backwards compatibility games on xbox 1 was totally worth it. Excited for what will come soon with the season pass xb1 exclusive content. The Ultimate Edition is **definitely worth it.

    Wow.. all the gears games are great, but they just keep getting better and better. Gears 4 is great from campaign to multiplayer. Long time fans will love the story especially. This game is the reason to get an Xbox One! ;D

    Gameplay is about the same, there's some new moves but pretty much the same and that's not a bad thing. I haven't completed the campaign yet but so far the story is great. Online mode is also a blast with plenty to unlock !

    When I first heard Gears of War was rebooting in a way with a new set of characters and story I hopped aboard the hype train. I bought the Ultimate Edition which includes the season pass , a steel case, some dlc items and all the other Gears backwards compatible games .Needless to say I wasn't disappointed at all with the games single player or multiplayer. You take on the role of JD Fenix , Marcus son with the typical entourage as you end up fighting robots and the swarm to get your father back. If you liked the previous Gears of War multiplayer you will like this one also due to it being pretty much the same set up . What sets this mp off is HORDE 3.0. it massively improves upon its predecessors . I would highly recommend this game if your a Gears of War fan.

    This game is challenging but does has its perks. At first I was getting owned in multiplayer but I slowly got better and better. The story so far is great and looks great on my TV. This game definitely worth getting.

    I loved this game. I played co-op with my buddy and we both enjoyed it. I haven't played multiplayer, but I've heard the new horde mode is a blast. Anyway, the gameplay, graphics, story, and music are all awesome.

    I have been a gears player since day one of the original gears! Since gears one I have never felt the same about the other gears games until now! Gears 4 is amazing in story and especially in multiplayer as well!

    Have played them all. This game is the ONLY reason we have an XBox instead of PS4. If they ever stop making GOW, I will switch to Playstation. Great story line, great multi-player; definitely a must have game!!

    I have played all versions of gears. This one is a lot of fun and very challenging. Of course being able play cooperative over the internet is a big plus. I don't play pvp very much. But I love the campaign.

    This game is great. The campaign is rock-solid; only took me about 10 hours to beat, but the multiplayer is where a lot of the fun lies. Horde mode with a couple buddies is like drinking without a hangover.

    Gears of war 4 has all the features and gameplay that die-hard fans have loved.. along with new features that we have long wanted.. (ammo and gun sharing) It is also a great intro game to get first timers a first taste of the Gears of War world.. with a prologue covering the first games and the main events in them. (All of them included as a dlc) The ability to run a true 4k signal with a video game makes it look amazing as a major plus and a preview of things to come in gaming. There are in game purchases available for those that enjoy that kind of thing. But everything ( character and weapon skins, multiplayer missions and xp bonuses) are all random and can be acquired through regular gameplay.
