I think I got this game for $5. I really wish there was a "I bought this on sale" button next to the "received this product for free" because on sale this game is a bargain! The campaign is mediocre and open world. Escape mode is pretty awesome, the change in dynamic is different from other Gears games. Horde mode is as strong as ever. You can play against bots in for the multiplayer. Servers are still up and alive.

Never played a Gears game and I got to say that I really enjoyed Gears 5 campaign and the DLC Hivebusters. Didn't expect the story to be somewhat of a soap opera, also I got lost a bit with whats going on because I'm coming in at 5. BUT it didn't matter. Game was fun and I would recommend it. It's definitely must if it's on sale.

Pretend Gears 4 does not exist. This is a much better game. Nothing compared to the classic Gears of War games but it is still fun. Looking forward to E-Day. Don't let us down.
