Are people seriously complaining about an 85 on metacritic? Last time I checked 80+ meant a game was of quality and is recommended to be checked out. Oh but its the "microsoft media bias" right how could I forget.
Just face it: The Coalition isn't Epic Games w/Cliff. EPIC & Cliff has the clout, The Coalition does not. Also, welcome to how fanboys feel when Jim Sterling gave BOTW a '7' or when EDGE gave God of War an '8.' Both of which dropped the MC score. Plus, stop taking bets. Additional: USGamer is the same site that gave Horizon Zero Dawn a 50.
Because this game is honestly on par to God of War in storytelling, yet gets raped in the scoring. Some of the reviews were in the lower 60s for fuck sake.
@@kevinlee6003 How do you know it's on par with God of War. None of the reviews are prasing the story, they're just saying the campaign was good. Many games have had a good campaign with a good (not great) story
@@ROBBIEDZ Did you not watch any reviews? I've heard a few talk about how well written the story is and the character building is great. Go watch some review videos and come back at me.
@@kevinlee6003 I have watched multiple reviews. Most are saying the campaign is good, but they're not really praising the story because it doesn't do anything special. ACG didn't like the story but he said the campaign was good.
Because Smoove is trash at games in general. He calls PS users less skilled, but couldn’t even beat UC4 on Crushing and had to use exploits and glitches just to get past the first bosses in BloodBorne.
The highest scores for the game are from sites called Genercion Xbox, Somos Xbox, Xbox Achievements, Mondo Xbox, Windows Central, etc. and the fanboys are still crying media bias. If there's any bias it's clear which side it's from. Meanwhile the site that gave Gears 5 it's lowest score of 60 gave Horizon Zero Dawn a 50, so who are they biased towards exactly?
What? Out of 30 or so reviews at a score of 90 or above only about 5 are xbox focused if going off of title of the reviewer alone. Hard to say there's bias
@Halostorm Explain to me how it isnt a 6. The 9 to 10 range is for masterpieces. Those are must plays. 8 to 9 is for good games. 7 to 8 is for an entertaining game. 6 to 7 is for a game that isnt completely busted but it isnt really entertaining either. It also doesnt do anything new. Sub 6 is just trash. They were being lenient with crackdown 3. The multiplayer is complete trash that is repetitive and dead. The singleplayer has little to no story (story exists but isnt delved into), the gameplay is the same as the other crackdown games so the series hasn't really improved here while the industry has, and the graphics are a little above average (the cartoony vibe really worked against the game). I dont even need to dive into the ai and numerous bugs. The 60s were being nice. A 57 would actually be reasonable.
@Halostorm Crackdown 3 had the full support of Microsoft behind it. It is triple A, just not quality wise. I can see your reasoning but the low 60s still stand.
What these Xbox rabid fanboys fail to realize is that the reason why these kind of games aren't getting the scores they used to is because the industry as a whole is pretty much done with the whole ''mountain dew and Doritos'' dudebro games. they used to be popular back in the PS360 days but not anymore. This has nothing to do with 'media bias'' lol
Ghaith Live so will the industry grow tired of 3rd party action games next generation? Because that’s all we really got this gen outside of the usual annual sports titles, etc.
I don't know what kind of genre you're specifically referring to since "3rd person action games" is too vague of a description, but historically speaking, the industry has always moved on from genre once it grew tired of them. The industry moved on from dudebro games lile cod to open world games like skyrim, then moved on again to hero shooters like overwatch, then again to battle royal game like fortnight, now it went back to Japanese games again with RE3, Nioh 2, FF7R, Persona 5 etc..
Maybe I'm a little out of the loop here, but an aggregate critic score of 85 is really damn good. Gears 1 had a 94, Gears 2 had a 93, Gears 3 had a 91. So the series seems, in the critic's eyes, to still be a very solid game...but it's sorta stagnating as a series might tend to do. That's why people generally consider Bioshock the superior to Bioshock 2 even though the second game was far more mechanically rich and fleshed out. The same thing done over and over does bring with it a tendency to grow stale. Also, don't confuse sheer graphical prowess with aesthetic and style. That's why Stardew Valley and Minecraft will look beautiful forever.
Gears 5 is perfectly rated at an 85, maybe even an 83. Is a good score for a good game. The game is no masterpiece or even amazing to be 90 or above. Sorry Smoove.
That's the most idiotic thing I have read today... But of course, is expected from a Pony who has not played the game. Gears 5 is 5 times the game than any other Triple A this year. It deserves 92% at least.
1. You are so mad....why? 2. You judging someone else's opinion and you haven't played the game yourself 3. They are doing nothing original outside of hoard mode everything else is borrowed from other games (u say it yourself) 4. Gears 5 is the 6th games in the series 2nd gears this gen it is tired it's not gonna get a 90 when the gears 4 just came out 3 years ago it's a tired i.p 5. Xbots are crazy
Told you Kid Smoove, 83-86 score....why so shocked fam? All jokes aside, why this franchise hasn't broken you off with some sort of fanatic package deserves more of an outrage video...rather than a review score. Aww man...corporate slavin don't pay what it used to. Lol 😂🤣 #Stopbetting
24:45 Mario changes its gameplay at least every other game with new mechanics or styles. It has the ability to adapt and change its genre because Nintendo actually wants their fans to have newer experiences every game. Mario started as just a platformer, then all of a sudden there was a rpg, a tactical shooter, a party game, a racing game, a sports game, and even a horror game with Luigi. Mario has hit almost every genre in existence and it has stood the test of time because of it. Gears has a set formula, but do you know what a Mario game needs? Just Mario. Just put Mario in the genre and BOOM there is a new Mario game.
I agree with you on that Mario and Zelda point. Excellent argument. Not only is it the Mario and Zelda, the Story is the same, repeated over and over again. Zelda is Hyrule, magic sword, save princess or land and then Ganon final boss. Over and over again. Biased Nintendofans
It's bound to happen sooner or later. chances are MS is never going to put out top tier games and these guys will eventually have to move over to playstation. Crapgamer and MBG used to be just like him till not long ago.
People lets be honest the real reason why Gears 5 scored below 90 is all thanks to KidSmoove jinxed magical power to loose every bet regarding to xbox one console exclusive metascore.
10:43 So the genre for Control is a 3D metroidvania style action game and it uses that style well. It perfects that style beautifully with very rewarding gameplay. Gears 5 is a third person cover based shooter and it tries to be like Far Cry, Metro Exodus, or Destiny. An "open world" shooter but with an empty open world with very little to do in it with "rpg elements" that don't really feel rewarding which is how they're supposed to feel. But the thing that gets stronger isn't you, it's Jack. In Control, YOU snowball into an unstoppable psychic badass. In Gears 5 you're pretty much the same from beginning to end just with an upgraded robot.
Smoove you get more people when you talk about something (in this case rant) than when you're gaming for a couple reasons. First of all, we are GAMERS! We love to PLAY games, not watch someone else play! That's no fun. We fuck with you because we find you interesting and you are quite entertaining. Even when you aren't mad or frustrated.
The game is on par with God of War in storytelling and goes a step further via multiplayer. That's why people are pissed and don't trust these 'critics'.
@@darksidehavok You see, you said you guys finally got a good one. Implying that you don't have an Xbox, and possibly not a PC. I suggest you get one of either (OneX is your best choice for money). Buy Gears 5 and YOU be the judge then. Until then, you can't "doubt" something that you haven't played just as I can't call it on par with with God of War, but from what I've seen... it is.
@@kevinlee6003 Meh, I can't really see a reason to buy a 1x... maybe an S and gamepass it... maybe. Until then, from what I have seen of Gears 5 and having platinumed God of war 2018 I disagree.
@@darksidehavok You can't really disagree if you haven't even played it yet. Also, why would you settle for an Xbox One S when you can get the world's strongest console? You buy a used one and you can get it pretty damn cheap.
Ayo I just got off the phone with Smooves wife bad news. She called me crying saying that 4 people dressed in all white came and snatched him. I heard it all go down in the background. The people claimed they was from some institution and they came because of this video. Smoove been tied down to a stretcher with a straight jacket and kidnapped. They said a concerned UA-camr named JayTechtv has called because it appears Smoove was having a meltdown. Awwww man get well soon Smoove
Ive just recently started playing Gears 5, its decent but the open world sections destroy the pacing and bring the game down. An 85 is an accurate score
The standards have risen dramatically in the last 6 years. Judgement released in 2013, and since then we've had games like Uncharted 4, Horizon zero Dawn, Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Spider-Man, and God of War. Franchise fatigue for the Gears franchise had already settled in when Gears of War judgement released, much like it did when God of War Ascension released (they released in the same year)... But unlike Sony Santa Monica who decided to go back to the drawing board and wait over five years to bring us the new GOD OF WAR dramatically different than those that came before it, MS and the Coalition decided to bleed the Gears franchise dry, and instead released Gears of War 4 in 2016. Now we have Gears of War 5, sticking to the 3 year release cycle with only incremental change. They're getting diminishing returns because they aren't innovating enough. So what would have been an 8.5 or even a 9.0 six years ago, is just a 7.0 now. Days Gone would have gotten 9's and 10's across the board if it was a release window game for the PS4 (and if Last of Us didn't exist). The standards are just that high now
The game is great but there are some hiccups with the game like its open world and rpg elements, which were kind of disappointing. The "open world" of the campaign is just lifeless and empty. It is just meant to pad out game time with side objectives that lay on the edges of the maps. You can get useful things like components to upgrade your robot, Jack, and world building info from them but not really necessary to enjoy the game. The "rpg elements" is only meant for the robot that accompanies you. Like I said earlier, you get components that upgrade its abilities. Its a cool addition but it isn't really what I would call "rpg elements". Also it is more like 12 hours of gameplay for Gears 5. It's close to 20 if you do all the side objectives, but a small majority of that gameplay is using the skiff going from location to location There is plenty more the game does right to give it a 85, it just had a few hiccups in some places
Are you just realizing review scores are subjective... If you dont agree with the critics there is a user score directly under it that is more accurate imo. Also this was the funniest hour of content ive seen in a while.
I stopped paying attention to mainstream reviewers years ago. I mostly watch them for laughs (Angry Joe Show), but if I truly want to check out objective reviews (ACG reviews, Laymen gaming, etc). Xbox titles get lower ratings. That's just a FACT. Control is essentially the same game as Quantum Break and people were bashing that game. Gears 5 is without question a better overall game than GOW 4 and it's not even close. Gears 5 is easily one of the best looking (and performing) games that was released this gen and they improved the gameplay on every front and added new modes. This game is at least a 9 (on a scale of 10) in my opinion and is a must play if you own an Xbox (especially with game pass being so damn awesome and affordable). I played Horizon Zero Dawn, U4, and some parts of God of War and I admit that those were all BEAUTIFUL and fantastic games. But Gears (which is a different type of game) is just as gorgeous (if not more so), fun, and engaging as those titles and people out here giving the game a 60? Lmao stop it.
“Media outlets failed a Xbone exclusive...” Or maybe MS and The Coalition simply failed to make a game worthy of such high praise? Why Xbots think this game “deserves” better scores is beyond me, especially when you kids constantly claim you don’t care about said scores. If the game is good to you, then play it and enjoy it; stop acting entitled
A lot of these ppl that doesn’t agree with him in the comments are PlayStation fanboys that are glad Xbox got the score they got. I played gears, and I completely understand the bs that’s been pulled here
Kidsmoove is pissed off he's right though. Xbox fans have been going thru this crap for years Sony pays people off literally to pull this crap that is not a conspiracy theory.
My friend, just play the game and have fun...the game is good....do not think it is unacceptable.....as of right now the review percentage is on 86 maybe it might go up or maybe it might not....you win some, you lose some....but I think for you, it is time to stop betting for a while
You're only saying gaming journalism is at its worst because of the scores they give xbox's crappy games. You would be saying the opposite if xbox games got good scores.
Come on SMoove , why you mad about the score , not that many games get 90 or higher. There is no big conspiracy of people wanting to score microsoft games lower an what not , Gears doesn't look anything special anyway
23:46 Gears just needs to end. There might be a way to make it better but then devs would have to add entirely new systems and mechanics, which would almost make it an entirely different game. Did you know the idea for Devil May Cry (PS2) was originally supposed to be for Resident Evil 4 but the gameplay was so different Capcom said "how about we use this to make a new franchise" and they did and it paid off for them. There is probably nothing Gears can do to change its core gameplay but there has to be a good change that makes it stand out way more than any other Gears game or any other game for that matter
Moral of the store.... you realllllly should stop betting lol
P Roh Dusah couldn’t agree more

Classic stream of consciousness lmaoooo Regardless of terrible takes you sir are hilarious. Appreciate the content over the years.
"what was the issue with Mass effect Andromeda?" O_O
Dude 85 is a great score!! Oh also Control does deserve the score it got.
Still time Smoove. It might go higher lol funny video man
I guess his thumbnail pic says it all . . .
Why you crying
Cuz he a bitch 😂
Xx-DARKLINK-xX M cause he about to lose money
He's an Xbox Fanboy. It's all he knows.
That basic ass third person shooter is not higher than an 85... this isn't 2007 anymore
The game is great but there are some hiccups with the game like its open world and rpg elements, which were kind of disappointing.
The "open world" of the campaign is just lifeless and empty. It is just meant to pad out game time with side objectives that lay on the edges of the maps. You can get useful things like components to upgrade your robot, Jack, and world building info from them but not really necessary to enjoy the game.
The "rpg elements" is only meant for the robot that accompanies you. Like I said earlier, you get components that upgrade its abilities. Its a cool addition but it isn't really what I would call "rpg elements".
Also it is more like 12 hours of gameplay for Gears 5. It's close to 20 if you do all the side objectives, but a small majority of that gameplay is using the skiff going from location to location
There is plenty more the game does right to give it a 85, it just had a few hiccups in some places
Smoove is a fuckin genius for making this stream he'll make that 120 back plus more in no time
Dont't hate on Control.
the funniest pare is all the ps4 ads on his screen
Are you just realizing review scores are subjective... If you dont agree with the critics there is a user score directly under it that is more accurate imo. Also this was the funniest hour of content ive seen in a while.
Gears 5 is trash, shame most casual gears fans are oblivious to this.
I stopped paying attention to mainstream reviewers years ago. I mostly watch them for laughs (Angry Joe Show), but if I truly want to check out objective reviews (ACG reviews, Laymen gaming, etc).
Xbox titles get lower ratings. That's just a FACT. Control is essentially the same game as Quantum Break and people were bashing that game. Gears 5 is without question a better overall game than GOW 4 and it's not even close. Gears 5 is easily one of the best looking (and performing) games that was released this gen and they improved the gameplay on every front and added new modes. This game is at least a 9 (on a scale of 10) in my opinion and is a must play if you own an Xbox (especially with game pass being so damn awesome and affordable).
I played Horizon Zero Dawn, U4, and some parts of God of War and I admit that those were all BEAUTIFUL and fantastic games. But Gears (which is a different type of game) is just as gorgeous (if not more so), fun, and engaging as those titles and people out here giving the game a 60? Lmao stop it.
Check usgamer's score for Horizon zero Dawn.
Im very happy with 85 compared to da trash we been getting.
Gears is washed up smoove. They shoulda moved on after 4
After 3
“Media outlets failed a Xbone exclusive...”
Or maybe MS and The Coalition simply failed to make a game worthy of such high praise? Why Xbots think this game “deserves” better scores is beyond me, especially when you kids constantly claim you don’t care about said scores.
If the game is good to you, then play it and enjoy it; stop acting entitled
A lot of these ppl that doesn’t agree with him in the comments are PlayStation fanboys that are glad Xbox got the score they got. I played gears, and I completely understand the bs that’s been pulled here
Moral of the Story....Buy A Playstation
The story was trash, and the RPG elements should never have been included....
Dude has a track record of winning 3 bets and losing 49......you should never go to Vegas. Corporate slaving ain't it chief
waaaaaay in the water waaaay in the water
Kidsmoove is pissed off he's right though. Xbox fans have been going thru this crap for years Sony pays people off literally to pull this crap that is not a conspiracy theory.
The over all review of gears 5 from IGN Isn’t out yet. It will probably be rounded up to a 9
My friend, just play the game and have fun...the game is good....do not think it is unacceptable.....as of right now the review percentage is on 86 maybe it might go up or maybe it might not....you win some, you lose some....but I think for you, it is time to stop betting for a while
Intro beat is mad dope; I needs to know who it is fam

You're only saying gaming journalism is at its worst because of the scores they give xbox's crappy games. You would be saying the opposite if xbox games got good scores.
First he loses on SEKIRO, and now this - no more bets for you bruh! 😂😂😂
Come on SMoove , why you mad about the score , not that many games get 90 or higher. There is no big conspiracy of people wanting to score microsoft games lower an what not , Gears doesn't look anything special anyway
23:46 Gears just needs to end. There might be a way to make it better but then devs would have to add entirely new systems and mechanics, which would almost make it an entirely different game.
Did you know the idea for Devil May Cry (PS2) was originally supposed to be for Resident Evil 4 but the gameplay was so different Capcom said "how about we use this to make a new franchise" and they did and it paid off for them.
There is probably nothing Gears can do to change its core gameplay but there has to be a good change that makes it stand out way more than any other Gears game or any other game for that matter
