Somewhat cool game that brings the idea of how great Gears of War is but doesn't deliver the full functionality. Understanding you are a giant beefy heavily equipped warlord, it still feels clunky to move and operate. Dodging isn't a perfect timed objective, instead it's hit the button as soon as you see a attack indicator and hope your facing the right way. The gun is cool.... when it works but it seems to have 2x separate distance modes, when enemies are approaching from farther seems to be a shift where you gun just stops working trying to switch modes/views. This is super annoying considering you are about to get overran by enemies and you can't shoot. The controller options are also not that great forcing you to pick between about 6 different options but not select your own layout. I found myself constantly pausing the game trying to change controls just to find out its not a possible combination. The health and ammo pick ups are also lacking. I am constantly dealing with low health,finally accepting it's easier to die and restart at a previous checkpoint rather than finding health. Ammo isn't as rare however I find myself trying to avoid gunplay at all cost in fear I will run out of bullets when a large horde comes attacking. All in all I don't feel in control of my "Ultra Marine" and the bad ass feel you should get is swept away by the lack in inventory replenishment.

The game has potential to be good but there's to much against it to make it enjoyable. The low travel, limited fast travel and difficult task to heal when you have low health makes this game unenjoyable. It's hard to get into when you need to grind so much to get items that make you weigh to much to even run, upgrading is a pain. I really tried to enjoy this game and get past all this but I keep feeling unfulfilled when I play. I personally do not recommend this game.

The game itself is good but I have to give it a low rating because it doesn't allow you in any way to qualify for a race. You start last no matter what and in most instances you are 30 seconds behind the first racer meaning g your car must outperform theirs by a long shot. If they were to fix this thengame would be enjoyable. I enjoy a challenge but I hate having to get super cars to go against a typical sedan just to win. It ruins the enjoyment.

Slow, slow, video, walk 5 seconds, video, slow , fight 3 guys, video, walk, snooze while holding forward on the controller, walk, video, fight 2 guys, video, walk. Shut console.off and never play again. Holy this game (hard to call it a game) sucks. It's so hard to get in because 98 percent of the time you walking while dialog happens... why don't you sell this as a ps5 video so I can atleast enjoy it while not having to hold forward on my controller. I'm a hard core GOW fan playing every game start to finish 100% completion and this one I am skipping side quests and secrets because I honestly just want to be done the game and return it. I don't think I'll be able to complete this game and it will end of collecting dust way back in the bookshelf. If they do decide to come out with another game I'll wait till it's free before I try. Visually it's a masterpiece but the purpose ofna game is to engage the player.
