"I can recognise something good in something I dont really love". This is why you're an excellent reviewer. Well part of it anyway. I cant stand how gaming media reviewers cannot be objective when reviewing. I had a long disagreement once in a comment section with a well known reviewer on that very point. He had no problem scoring well made games at a 4 out if 10 and poorly made games an 8 out of 10 depending on what he enjoyed. The comment section was split 50/50 in support of that and in support of my comments. I believe professional reviewers should remain unbiased and objective, you dont have to love everything, but still try to put yourself in consumers shoes. You absolutely do that when summarising and I really appreciate that.
No thanks. Anyways not gonna happen. Games Workshop is very strict with their IP. Creative Assembly did the best for the fantasy IP of Warhammer franchise.
@@ramitinmahashol4523 Strict? They seems to willy nilly give their franchise to any developers. You go on steam and notice dozens of WH games you never heard about where half of them are not that great.
Yea and you get the ultimate edition as well! And you keep everything if you decide to buy it later. 2 months is in time for Steam October sale so definitely getting this for $2. No brainer.
I bought the ultimate edition as I always do with gears. I started buying the ultimate editions from gears 2 onwards and I regret nothing. I love the franchise
@@ComicsLamar they remastered the entire series for xbox one and the x. Which is included with gamepass. Same with halo Mcc. Even a reach remaster is being added for free. Every single xbox one exclusive is on gamepass and will be in the future at launch if not before.
I saw that you put this review up on your podcast channel and I just want to thank you. There are so many times where I only download reviews so that I can listen to them on the way to work (watching and driving is a hazard). So sincerely thank you for doing that and I hope you continue to do it. - an appreciative long time fan and listener.
I don't know where the Brotherhood gets their endless supply of expendable vertibirds but it always made for a fun "WTF just blew up in the distance I'll go check it out" gameplay moments
Thinking about it now, I'm guessing it has to do with them maybe not being able to practice due to ther not being any new vertivirds? idk I'm trying to save bethesda from bad AI shame haha.
@@MrRoundthetwist average and last Gen?? , bleach your eyes pls, or grow some braincells 😂 the game looks beautiful at 4k 60 hdr, and the lighting effect are one of the best in any game.
This campaign is really wonderful! It's a full upgrade from Gears 4, in both gameplay and story. I'm so happy Microsoft has a solid exclusive this year.
For those who don’t know the release date was pushed up a few hours respectively for Ultimate Edition owners. I know for the east coast it’s 9PM on the 5th of September.
@@leeeverett4067 No xbox doesn't do that anymore. If a the game comes out at 9pm est that means that since I live in GMT it will be 7pm for me when I get to play. They do that so every one gets the game at the same time. They don't do roll releases anymore.
Don't get it on Steam. If you are on PC - download the Xbox Pass, it's 1$ for the first month. You can play it for 1$ and any other games you want during this month and then cancel if you want :)
Hands down by far you give the BEST reviews.. the amount of detail and useful content and information you manage to fit into a 20 minute video never cease to amaze me. Your funny, poetic, informational and not at all biased. Whenever I'm considering a game I HOPE that you have reviewed it with the quickness!
I got access to this game for $1 AUD with the Xbox game pass trial month (that's about 70 cents USD). Best value for money of the year by far even without the discounted trial game pass it's only about $15 AUD which is cheap af. A 1 dollar triple A game from Microsoft in 2019 with decent PC port!? Absolutely astounding.
Game Pass technically is renting, since it's gone when you stop subscribing. Not bashing Game Pass, it's amazing on a value for money proposition, but let's call it what it is.
@@Gogo32monkey if you're like me and only play on PC game pass is $60 for a full year and I'll be honest it feels like all I'm doing is setting aside 60 for one big game purchase a year since there's no streaming or always online bullshit
It is but not how it tradionally was. With gamepass Microsoft actually gets a profit from each subscriber, while with traditional media they got nothing but the initial purchase which was passed around to an almost unlimited amount of people, 100% of the profit was for non related third parties.
That demonstration of Low, Mid, High, Ult settings in graphics = YES!! Digestible and interesting. Show things you mention too, a lot of the tech talk just flies past me bcs of tempo and my own confusion.
I’ve liked most gears games but they’ve always felt like a T. rex with even smaller arms trying to shoot a target. It looks like they’ve improved this problem in 5 as it looks like they changed the reticle for some of the weapons for more accuracy
Thanks all for watching. Subscribe! Also Stop by the patreon if you can! It really helps! www.patreon.com/AngryCentaurGaming 60 FPS 4k HDR on the Xbox X is quiet the accomplishment.
Not particularly interested in the game, but I still watch all your uploads for entertainment, you're truly one of a kind when it comes to analyticalally no nonsense reviews, your integrity as a gamer/game journalist is your greatest asset. Love from Argentina, keep it up.
I just started playing Gears 4 for the first time thanks to GamePass. I love everything about it so far. Looking forward to finding the space on my SSD to install Gears 5.
A lot of reviewers dont review games for what they are as opposed to what you think it should be. Even if I'm not neccesarily interested in a particular game, I enjoy ACG's take on things because its objective, and based on what is present, not what isn't.
Awesome review, my man! I was waiting for this before deciding whether I'll get this or not. I never had an XBox and missed out on Gears 2.4. But I can't wait to get my hands on this when it drops.
Judgement gets a lot of hate, but the campaign was great. I hoped to see more of the Emergence Day battles or even when Marcus leaves his post to save his father in Epyria. That would be another good idea for a prequel came with the OG Locust Horde.
I enjoyed judgement. It was more arcade style gears. The only campaign I took the time to beat on more than one difficulty/100% completion (the mission challenges were awesome). 4 was BORING.
Been waiting for this review. Cool. I was gonna definitely take a look at this. But your review bolstered my decision. Now there's some hype! Thanks. Gears 5 has been on my radar, but admitadly not the highest up there on games to get hype about list. But gamepass has my back. I'm so excited to play this on gamepass. Way more than if I had to buy itoddly enough!
Loved the first 3. Fuck judgment. 4 ruined my love for the series. Coalition really fucked up with the constant horde nerfs that increased the grind and promoted buying loot boxes. Hopefully this game is better even though its now a live service.
Great review. Imho , the overall lore of Gears is one of the best in shooters. From the Locust origins , how humanity survived , etc. Its a unique spin on the "space marine" genre . In game , the stories seem to struggle the most with showing that though.
I'm just in it for the amazing graphics and turning the locust into a blob of goo lol. From a technical standpoint these games are honestly pretty amazing. Also Gears 1 was way ahead of its time.
I'll answer for you, gears 5 is a sequel essentially to gears 4 there are a continuation of certain character arcs as well as plot points. Is it really necessary no not at all and they even have an in game video for you to catch up on everything within one of the game menus
Definitely Buy! the best made game of 2019 by far multiplayer alone is massive with so much content it's awesome this is definitely the best gears of war game yet
You are so good at giving reviews! Like, very good! I love how you will give positive and negatives, and even through your negatives, you still recognize when something is good and don’t give it a bad review just because there are things you didn’t like. Very well done!
first three are the best but if you pick up at gears 4 and then play five you will be informed enough for the story of five. I do recommend playing the first three though!! Co-op makes it way more fun too they are built for co-op.
Not gunna lie, because of gamepass my ps4 has been mostly dormant. Sure, xbox doesnt have as many exclusives. But getting them ALL past and future on gamepass for 5 bucks extra on top of xbox live a month plus a ton of brand new or relatively new 3rd party titles like devil may cry 5 plus all of the games with gold games I've collected and the fact that every 3rd party game looks and runs better on the x, makes the xbox one by far my most played console with the most games owned and played.
@@jjabblePlayStation so? I have the x and the pro. The ps4 pro was a waste of money. And the s is better than either of the standard ps4 models, slim or orginal. Gives you a 4k blue ray player which by itself is a little pricey and you can still use hdr on games. More triple a games come out every year that are cross platform than exclusives. I play more third party games than 1st party exclusives, most people do. So if I'm going to buy a game and I have the choice, I always always pick xbox. Superior online services and servers, superior sales, gamepass, the best controller especially for competitive games, AND the big one, I know for a fact that every game I buy on xbox one will be available on the new system with backwards compatibility as already promised. Sony has been reluctant to say this. That's a massive massive deal. You game purchases wont just disappear when jumping to the next console. Sony will just force you to rebuy the game or buy their 3rd remaster of the same title.
Does anyone know when the game releases on gamepass? I know they said it was early, but I'm confused if the 10th that they advertise or if that's the normal release date.
As a PS4 owner, I’ve had this game on pre-order to play on my nephew’s XBOne. Looking forward to playing it. Love the Gears franchise. Owned a 360 last generation, but other than this, microshit has nothing to offer.
I booted up the game and went to start Campaign and was thrown off that they got rid of “Hardcore” difficulty and change it to “Experienced” ... why they made that change on Gears 5 is so weird and I haven’t even started the game yet. I am glad they kept “Insane” in the game.
I’ve never played it gears of war game, they look good and I’ve heard good things just never took the time yet. But I was thinking about getting the gears of war Xbox one X. Thoughts? lol
Got a month of game pass for $1 to play Outerworlds, finished that in like 34 hours so I still have two weeks to play this one now as well. Seems like the best way to give this one a shot.
I miss old Gears. I want to play as Marcus and hear the cheesy one liners, and experience the dynamic of the original cast of characters. The new characters suck.
It just still rustless my jimmies that we killed off the Locust in Gears of War 3...except it turns out we didn't. It feels like my efforts from the original trilogy were in vain.
To be fair, in gears of war 3 Adam fenix did say he wasn’t sure it would kill off the locust he only knew it would with the lambent, so idk maybe that makes it easier for u ha
I love gears of war. I never played gears of war 4, should I play it for any kind of story elements that are critical, I have it, but I never played it, or just jump in to gears 5?
A huge part of my college life was spent playing Horde mode in GOW2 and 3 was great but I lost my love of the series in 4...and this may be the first gears I skip
I brought new VGA card just to prepare for this game... and still after I watched this I'm not sure it's enough lol. the game looks beautiful and detailed. I surely purchased this game because the price dropped so much in my country. plus i'm a hardcore gears fan.
Seriously who can argue the xboxoneX isnt quality best graphics but also for only 15bucks you can get xbox live and gamepass which gears 5 will be free with.
I'm mostly interested in getitng this for the multiplayer, but good to know the singleplayer seems to have that meathead appeal the old games did, some fun for a few playthroughs, especially in co-op

Lol
This game makes me want an Xbox
just got one😂 ig i wasnt crazy
Do yourself a favor and just get a pc instead.
OneManGenocide is it possible to play this and Forza Horizon 4 just on PC not owning an Xbox?
Alexander Ulv yes you can.
@@OneManGenocide86
For $500? Try another one.
Thank god the port is the same as the previous one, since it ran flawlessly and looked great
What's GoW main mode?
Story mode, multiplayer pvp, horde?
considering picking this up. this may have convinced me to.
Games pass is £2 for 2 months atm.
As a PS4 owner, I’ve had this game on pre-order to play on my nephew’s XBOne. Looking forward to playing it. Love the Gears franchise. Owned a 360 last generation, but other than this, microshit has nothing to offer.
Forza
Jon Fulkerson - Halo and Forza... that’s it.
Cuphead, recore. Sunset overdrive, ori. Idk i have ps4 also but its not thr only console with good games.
Enjoyable review. I could sense the adrenaline and excitement. It's a buy!
It's a buy game pass
Can you play the campaign through Xbox Game Pass or only multiplayer?
Nice to see Killzone Shadowfall had an impact on this title.
I'm that one guy that loved Shadowfall so I'll definitely be playing this too!
@@radleystark6561 you're not alone!
I watched the whole video but don't remember Karak mentioning Killzone Shadowfall influence. How did it influence Gears 5?
I booted up the game and went to start Campaign and was thrown off that they got rid of “Hardcore” difficulty and change it to “Experienced” ... why they made that change on Gears 5 is so weird and I haven’t even started the game yet. I am glad they kept “Insane” in the game.
I absolutely love gears, can’t wait to play on Friday
Thursday*
@@blazedyoda8608 You can play tomorrow if you have Gamepass Ultimate.
@@blackjack2150 it got pushed back to Friday i believe.
@@blackjack2150 and if you buy the ultimate edition of the game.
@@Mayorofsexytown1303 it says on game pass play it on thrusday
Are you planning to review greedfall before release or is there an embargo
I can't help but picture an absolutely yoked Jake the Dog whenever Marcus speaks, lol. WHAT TIME IS IT??!
CLAYTON!! Most badass Carmine is back baby.
I’ve never played it gears of war game, they look good and I’ve heard good things just never took the time yet. But I was thinking about getting the gears of war Xbox one X. Thoughts? lol
Gears is best when played split screen with friends
Got a month of game pass for $1 to play Outerworlds, finished that in like 34 hours so I still have two weeks to play this one now as well.
Seems like the best way to give this one a shot.
Did you liked it?
I’d do anything to play this RIGHT NOW
Anything?! Get on your knees peasant!!
Great job as always. Your humor is a reminder to me of Dennis Miller. However, you are much more relatable and funny.
CLAY CARMINE IS BACK LFG!!
currently playing it , great so far!
I miss old Gears. I want to play as Marcus and hear the cheesy one liners, and experience the dynamic of the original cast of characters. The new characters suck.
My thoughts exactly. Can we at least change into the black guy for the entire campaign?
Go play the old Gear than, Masterbrain
@@brando3342 Whamen of Wars 5 😂
@@mgkpraesi I mean obviously I want new games with the original cast. The new cast sucks. Plain and simple
I love your reviews when you use humor. Thanks!
This actually looks like a lot of fun
Got it pre-installed on my X! playing a lot of it tomorrow, Game Pass is just great.
13:36 an either/OAR situation hahaha because there are OARS on the WALL HAHAHA
Nice.. ive been waiting for this review. Open world gears... Well not suprised but somehow satisfied. Thanks Karake.
It just still rustless my jimmies that we killed off the Locust in Gears of War 3...except it turns out we didn't.
It feels like my efforts from the original trilogy were in vain.
To be fair, in gears of war 3 Adam fenix did say he wasn’t sure it would kill off the locust he only knew it would with the lambent, so idk maybe that makes it easier for u ha
@@anthonyortiz3142 just play the game, you will see why they are back
I love gears of war.
I never played gears of war 4, should I play it for any kind of story elements that are critical, I have it, but I never played it, or just jump in to gears 5?
You just need to know the story thats all otherwise you might not understand gears 5. Gears 4 ends with the main factor of gears 5
@@dhruvbajaj1054 I'll have to read the story on wiki or something, thanks
A huge part of my college life was spent playing Horde mode in GOW2 and 3 was great but I lost my love of the series in 4...and this may be the first gears I skip
How are you playing it 2 days before its release?
Review code.
Praise the gamepass

I brought new VGA card just to prepare for this game... and still after I watched this I'm not sure it's enough lol. the game looks beautiful and detailed. I surely purchased this game because the price dropped so much in my country. plus i'm a hardcore gears fan.
THIS is the review I was waiting for... 😁😁😁
Yeah...me too. I skipped over all the other reviewers just for KARAK.
Your my number 1 reviewer these days! First place I always go when embargoes are up.
man i will be playing this game in a few days...just curious of your thoughts and this presentation

Great review as always mate. Looking forward to playing Gears 5!
Seriously who can argue the xboxoneX isnt quality best graphics but also for only 15bucks you can get xbox live and gamepass which gears 5 will be free with.
What is the resolution for campaign on Xbox one S? I know for the X it’s 60fps at 4K
Gears fans unite!
i've never player gears of wars, this will come to steam/gog? or am i being too hopeful? hope i can play it on my Windows 7 desktop
Marko Ahonen Gears 5 will release on Steam as a DirectX12 title, even on Windows 7.
@@raresmacovei8382 splendid, thank you!
Marko Ahonen As long as you have a HD 7000+ or GTX 600+ GPU, you're good to go.
@@raresmacovei8382 so my sister with my old 7850 could play it, neat, my currrent machine rocks a humble RX570
I'm mostly interested in getitng this for the multiplayer, but good to know the singleplayer seems to have that meathead appeal the old games did, some fun for a few playthroughs, especially in co-op
The campaign is getting better than GOW 4 in my opinion
Does the game not have loot boxes? If that's the case then I'll buy it just a support that monetization decision.
@Master Exploder There is no such thing as a good reason to buy a video game.
