@@lanmassingill9180 storms does work like that on sera actually it is kinda of gameplay mechanic in gow 4 and gears 5 doesnt work with bigger enemies though like scions and pouncers
Ive always had PS but when id go to my best friends house a kid I fell in love with gears 1-3. I'm glad to see 5 is doing well...truthfully it might be a system seller for me. People who havent played gears dont know what they are missing.
I mean he didnt touch on the story so I dont know how that's going to be, but the gameplay looks solid because they kept the core aspect of what a GOW game plays like while updating and adding worthwhile additions. As a fan since the first one this looks good to me, 4 was good gameplay wise but the story left something to be desired and the loot boxes turned me off of the game, hopefully they get rid of that
I. MISS. FREAKING. BEAST. MODE... your pronounciation of "español" made me laugh (yo soy hispano-hablante) and i still prefer this version of gameranx :P
I like the shout out to the Spanish language version of the Before you Buy videos. Gears of War has a huge following in Central and South America, especially Mexico.
You mentioned the part about wishing there was a catch up for the first 3 Gears games for newcomers. There actually is in the main menu and it does a really good job!
Luckily when gears 5 launched they put all of them on the game pass so you can literally play all of them if you were so inclined and new to the series
I know this is old but I just started playing this and it is great! I agree it would be better if you could upgrade the characters instead of or as well as Jack. It would be nice to have some base abilities you can make better with progression.
I am glad to see we arent fighting Deebees anymore, it was so BORING the first two Acts of Gears 4. I would always have to skip straight to Act 3 since that is when it got interesting.
@@Renegado140 I don't know how many. More times it Happens. I've only encountered one so far but I'm only about 5 or so hours in. It wasn't too bad on the Experiences difficulty, which would bassically be hardcore.
Honestly I’m with you here I came to gears of war for the fun shooty shooty action but sticked around way longer because of the lore. And idea of there being variations of the weapons instead of just “this is a shotgun this is a sniper” just sounds great to me.
Jacob W The dialogue between characters in this game seem way more natural and way less cringy compared to gears 4. Honestly from what I've seen the voice acting in general has vastly improved in this one.
Umm its even worse you play as a the two characters I really didnt give a shit about in the first one. But you know they gotta replace white male characters with females n blacks in everything now. Even tho white guys invented all this shit we are being replaced wise up.
James it does but I think that’s just to be on the safer side, games can’t be too dark or Gorey or else they can’t sell to the masses. I noticed the chainsaw doesn’t look as satisfying as it was
ID like to have a dlc dedicated to the pendulum wars. Id like to see more of the old wold. Gears lore îs my favorite ever. I miss the darkness and malincoly of the first two games, when humanity was on the verge of extinction, struggling with the locust. That atmosphere was unique. I love gears 5 and I give IT a 8.5/10. The gameplay and everything is perfect, but the New characters miss the old manliness and pesimism of the old gears. They're just like Kids Who enjoy an adventure, unaware of the darkness and danger around them, not like the action mature guys from delta squad, Who knew how to get the job done.
As a Sony fan this is a reason to get an Xbox I love gears of war, all of the games I definitely need to pick this one up. And an x to appreciate this title at 4k 60fps. Long live the cog.
@Titanium Rage You have a point, no need to be so salty about it though. Xbox is not worth getting however simply because it doesn't offer any exclusives. Sorry if that fact upsets you.
Jeeroy Lenkins i got a fully capable pc with a 1080ti. I built it 9 months ago you want to know how many times I have used it in total 6 times. Yes 6 was a waste of money I don’t play pc. Spent 2000$ on a pc for it to sit I always wanted to build a pc did it not a fan of it. Don’t get me wrong Pc is good, I just don’t have enough time for it or want to play it only for exclusive games that’s why I built it but found myself not even touching it. So to me it’s a waste. I rather play consoles.
HotSizzleTV That’s fair enough, in a way I can definitely see where you are coming from. I myself am considering getting a ps4 because it has a good line of exclusives I would like to try. Like I told the other guy though, I just don’t see the point in getting an Xbox one when all of their ‘’exclusives’’ are on PC anyway (and you have a great pc) but it’s your choice :)
My dad has been there since the first game. I bought this game for his birthday which was coincidentally the day after gears 5 released. He loves it so far and I’m happy he loves it 💙😄
Im glad you did something for him, really, you should be proud that you actually give something to your parents, even so, i have to warn others not to buy this game. Its 100% a clone of gears 4 with a little sprucing up. The highlights are the games free roam campaign ( its mediocre, nothing to get to excited over. Basically a less rewarding halo odst ) and the new bullet tag system. The actual shooting and multiplayer is extremely inconsistent right now, only 3/4 shots land with the gnasher. Recoil was altered on rifles to make them more viable at range( which they failed at doing, seeing as everyone in pubs and ranked just use a gnasher and power weapon anyway) so basically the same as gears 4. Ive beaten two runs of horde, the only change really is that certain characters have special perks. Pretty much nothing else but minor convenience changes. Do yourself a favor: get this game on the game pass. Do not buy the ultimate edition like i did or even the regular edition. You have been warned.
I admit when I played Gears 5 I went back to play Gears 4 again, and that's when I realized how enjoyable it really was. I don't understand why people are hating on these new gears games.
Gears 5 is a departure from the series. The characters are softer and half the quality set piece moments are replaced with a vacant semi-open world to pad out the game and give the illusion that its longer than it really is
Cant wait to play this tomorrow!! Also.. Ive been avoiding videos about it like the plague in case of spoilers, knew Gameranx wouldnt f me over tho. 😊👍
Older comment to this video…but as a (Casual Gamer) who only plays main campaigns/stories in video games, this is my favorite Gears of War game since part 2. The first GOW is still my favorite but I am really looking forward to a “Gears 6”. 😎
Glad to hear about Gameranx Español, as a native Spanish speaking videogame media consumer, it's pretty hard to find videogame-related channels in Spanish that aren't annoying as fuck. Thank you!
I grew up on the old school gears games gears 2 being my favorite. At first I didn’t like 4 then I saw gears five was coming out so I played gears 4 and it was decent but gears 5 has definitely made an awesome first impression on me so far!
Gamepass is very much worth it. It's pretty cheap considering. plus they keep coming out with deals for it . I recently paid 2 dollars for 3 months of game pass. It's not free of course? People need to make money for their work. it's totally worth it
I mean its 14.99 for game pass on PC xbox and xbox live gold so your paying 5 bucks for game pass on PC and xbox even if you just did it for gears that's 5 bucks for ultimate edition lmao plus I got ultimate game pass on a deal 2 dollars for 2 months that's basically free considering I downloaded like 5 other triple a games
Half price right now for another 9 days as of April 4th. Im downloading now thanks to this review. I haven't played Gears since the first one, which I loved. Sometimes I miss it, so I figured I'd give it a go. Thanks for the video.
I loved this series. Though it took me 10 years when i was 6 years old to beat the berserker, but. Hey. It was amazingly fun playing this game series. Now to wait for my xbox to get me access to this amazing series and hopefully they get to work on the open up levels to allow for that sweet sweet metro 3rd person actiony feels. Heck! Could even get an army setting up since the cogs been abandon and whatnut and have to fight your way back to the top, all while swarm continuously pound against ya front doors.
I took the deal where it converts your existing subscription months into ultimate. So I got 6 months of gold for €10 less than recurring payments, added that onto what I already had for pass and gold, then got the deal and I have ultimate until the 17/3/2020
Should have done that in June when first announced. You get it for $2 and keep it your whole Xbox live subscription. I have game pass until September next year. Idk if they $2 does that now but when they announced at E3 that was an easy steal.
Been listening/ watching to Jake baldino from PMI up to now on ganeranx and dude you're just excelling! Love the content and keep doing what you're doing!
If 4 lost your interest, this gane easily makes up for it. Fantastic in each of its game modes. I've put about 26 hours into the game so far and only really found 1 or 2 glitches and a simple checkpoint reset fixed them.
Jago Strife worth it in the end. You can buy brand new games for half off and enjoy having every game right in front of you and don’t have to search for it like on PS4 or Xbox
I like how they changed hord so you don't have to rely on a scout for gathering power. but I don't like the thought of only one person playing that character at time or can you have multiple people as the same character.
Terminator genesis was good to me.... going back to the past... that was cool seeing parts from part 1 changed up a bit........ took hard work to recreate those scenes.....
ActingAnimal 88 I first played 2 so for me that one was the best, when I played 3 I loved it as well everything after I was like YOOOO WHY!!! But with the original 3 including one I thought all of them were amazing but 2 being the best for me
Avery Battle I will admit , I felt that Gears 1 and 2 had such a good thing going that when 3 came out I was kinda unopened to the change in the story and enemies (lambient) but overtime I accepted it but 4 just felt like the gears franchise had shot itself in the foot. IDK maybe we can just hope 5 is better
ActingAnimal 88 I know what you mean but I felt the conclusion of the trilogy, so it helped me get into the story and when I played judgment, I was like why? But when I first played 4 I wasn’t into the story at all the characters don’t have the same charm to me as the original. Del is the only reason why I liked the story for the most part.
Hey, are you guys going to do a top #?of best headsets of 2019? I been wanting to buy a new one lately and Black Friday and Christmas are around the corner?
Good vídeo. But...why arcade versus mode doesn't have all the old weapons ? Sawed off , mortar , digger...I mean , it suposed to be a mode just for fun and I dont know why is a copy of the other Gnasher fest "pro mode" (I love Gnasher btw).
There is a deal for gamepass ultimate , 1$ = 1 month. 2$ = 2 months. Also comes with gold. Make sure to check your email after you buy it to cancel renewal so it doesn't charge after the 1-2 months and your all set
Helpless Doggo Calebunga if you had gold it will extend game pass ultimate for 12 months and if you already have game pass and gold and you buy game pass ultimate it will extend it to 36 months. 3 fucking years of free games.

I hate when people say "well, yea, there are microtransactions but they're all cosmetic so it's fine", like no, it's not fine, you're paying 60-70 bucks for a game and then if u wanna have different cosmetic options u have to waste more money again? Fuck no, companies limit way too much the customization aspect so they can sell skins and that's fine for free games but for a full-priced games is absolute nonsense, u get the "basic costumization pack" and then u need to pay for more, fuck outta here
@@joelmedina9315 It's not a matter of appealing to anything, it's a matter of getting what u paid for. U are literally paying 60 bucks for the "vanila edition" of most games these days and if u want stuff that should have already been included u have to pay extra and that, to me, is just ridiculous
Nothing’s gona beat that feeling you got in gears 1 when you had to fight the berserker

I mean its 14.99 for game pass on PC xbox and xbox live gold so your paying 5 bucks for game pass on PC and xbox even if you just did it for gears that's 5 bucks for ultimate edition lmao plus I got ultimate game pass on a deal 2 dollars for 2 months that's basically free considering I downloaded like 5 other triple a games
@@thewarriors3048 1$ a month for a 60$ game
Am I the only one that heard siri or someone else in the background in the beginning of the video? Lol
nope
I did too.
WHERE MY GAME PASS ULTIMATE SQUAD AT?????? 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rich boisss unite!
Here! XD
Here lol
Yessir
Here!
The gears veterans know gears 2 and 3 was the golden era
I miss playing the gear series😏😔☹️😭
Then play it this comes out Friday.
Comes out today
I wish I could but I went blind about 4 years ago so it would be really hard to see just to play.
@@josephrodriguez1683 so sorry to hear to that bro. Keep your head up. Much love to you.
Half price right now for another 9 days as of April 4th. Im downloading now thanks to this review. I haven't played Gears since the first one, which I loved. Sometimes I miss it, so I figured I'd give it a go. Thanks for the video.
Do a Before you pre order, cause i already bought this game
Chaingun juan how could he nvm..
2years Later I've Fallen In Love With This Game
I loved this series. Though it took me 10 years when i was 6 years old to beat the berserker, but. Hey. It was amazingly fun playing this game series. Now to wait for my xbox to get me access to this amazing series and hopefully they get to work on the open up levels to allow for that sweet sweet metro 3rd person actiony feels. Heck! Could even get an army setting up since the cogs been abandon and whatnut and have to fight your way back to the top, all while swarm continuously pound against ya front doors.
I’m finally going to play Gears for the first time.. I have game pass on my Xbox && everyday, I look at them… it’s time to cave in!
Did you end up getting it?
Took advantage of that $2 for 2 months of ultimate not gettin $80 out of me
Yet
I took the deal where it converts your existing subscription months into ultimate. So I got 6 months of gold for €10 less than recurring payments, added that onto what I already had for pass and gold, then got the deal and I have ultimate until the 17/3/2020
Lol nah chill we still aren't paying 80...getting it on sale Christmas half off
OP 8Z, im gonna get physical version from my local small video game store in a few months as they sell newish games for half original price
Got it for 17 dollars in my region lol
Should have done that in June when first announced. You get it for $2 and keep it your whole Xbox live subscription. I have game pass until September next year. Idk if they $2 does that now but when they announced at E3 that was an easy steal.
Been listening/ watching to Jake baldino from PMI up to now on ganeranx and dude you're just excelling! Love the content and keep doing what you're doing!
If 4 lost your interest, this gane easily makes up for it. Fantastic in each of its game modes. I've put about 26 hours into the game so far and only really found 1 or 2 glitches and a simple checkpoint reset fixed them.
Bro they brought the fuckin HEAT this time around
Before You Buy - Gears of War 5
Heh, has a nice ring to it.
Remember when the original game was all black and white and was very dark. Now they are all colorful and bright.
kinda makes me want an Xbox.. starting to miss GoW & Halo lol
Titanium Rage but pc you can have the best of both worlds and you can use a controller so
Jago Strife worth it in the end. You can buy brand new games for half off and enjoy having every game right in front of you and don’t have to search for it like on PS4 or Xbox
Jago Strife and don’t have to pay for online which is the best thing I’ve discovered since leaving PS4 and xbox
I’m going over to PC next gen
I use Xbox cause I can play GoW which is fun to play with my friends
Love this series man keep it up!
0:21 He’s Mary Poppins y’all!!
I just hope the PC version of 5 is as well optimized (or even better) as Gears 4 is.
I literally binged through the first 4 game campaigns before getting this.
Edit: I have no life
I appreciate the Spanish shoutout Gameranx. I’m bilingual but I like the fact I can watch in both languages now. Very cool addition. 👍
Yuuuuge Gears fanboy here!!! Sadly had to sell my xbox recently so I won’t be able to play, but I hope y’all have a great time! Peace ✌️
you know you can play it on PC though right?
Guillaume Dussault he might not have a pc
@@gojira2932 true that but might as well tell him. who knows sometimes people don't know about it and it could help him
Guillaume Dussault oh ok
Guillaume Dussault I don’t have a pc, thanks for looking out though!
Love your videos
I like how they changed hord so you don't have to rely on a scout for gathering power. but I don't like the thought of only one person playing that character at time or can you have multiple people as the same character.
Multiple people as the same character
2:00 beside the previous on gears theres a option beside it called state of the universe that does a summary video for gears 1 to 3
I'm going over the trilogy right now and I'm just loving the nostalgia.
What are those trilogy
In the settings guide there's a previously on the past 4 games video.
It's pretty long 5 MINUTES or so. But it's useful to refresh the series
"If the new Terminator film sucks..."
Jake mate, the last THREE Terminator films have sucked, why would you think Dark Fate will be any different?
John Simpson cuz James Cameron
@@CrazedMethAddict I pray you're right Timmy Spimmy.
@@JohnSimpson2112 i hope so lmao the first two are god tier and he directed those but who the heck knows
Terminator genesis was good to me.... going back to the past... that was cool seeing parts from part 1 changed up a bit........ took hard work to recreate those scenes.....
Aaaaaaaand...it sucked. No surprise there.
can't f'ing believe, first ever gameranx video in 60fps. well done joining the club 4 years late
0:42 when life is too much and you just can’t....
Watching this video when you already have your preorder paid in full. No turning back now 😁
DAKACTHER when you watch the before you buy after you’ve already beaten the campaign 😂
Gears of War (the original) is, in my opinion, always going to be the best game
ActingAnimal 88 I first played 2 so for me that one was the best, when I played 3 I loved it as well everything after I was like YOOOO WHY!!! But with the original 3 including one I thought all of them were amazing but 2 being the best for me
Avery Battle I will admit , I felt that Gears 1 and 2 had such a good thing going that when 3 came out I was kinda unopened to the change in the story and enemies (lambient) but overtime I accepted it but 4 just felt like the gears franchise had shot itself in the foot. IDK maybe we can just hope 5 is better
Everyone always ignores judgement
C. Barr well no it’s just.........yeah I’m my opinion sorry if you don’t think the same
ActingAnimal 88 I know what you mean but I felt the conclusion of the trilogy, so it helped me get into the story and when I played judgment, I was like why? But when I first played 4 I wasn’t into the story at all the characters don’t have the same charm to me as the original. Del is the only reason why I liked the story for the most part.
It was nice to finally get to have the main character in your group half way through the campaign.
No one seems to answer the one question I have about this Gears. Does it have split screen?!
Yes but only on console not on Pc
@@judasnexus9256 campaign has split screen on PC
@@miguelcoronel7672 Nope, you can play co-op with other players but no Split-screen
There is split screen for both xbox and pc. Skill up review mentioned.
Yes it's split screen for campaign and escape idk about mp or horde
First time watcher and you earned my subscription
Hey, are you guys going to do a top #?of best headsets of 2019? I been wanting to buy a new one lately and Black Friday and Christmas are around the corner?
Good vídeo. But...why arcade versus mode doesn't have all the old weapons ? Sawed off , mortar , digger...I mean , it suposed to be a mode just for fun and I dont know why is a copy of the other Gnasher fest "pro mode" (I love Gnasher btw).
Game pass BOOIIIII
The future of gaming
There is a deal for gamepass ultimate , 1$ = 1 month. 2$ = 2 months. Also comes with gold. Make sure to check your email after you buy it to cancel renewal so it doesn't charge after the 1-2 months and your all set
Helpless Doggo
Calebunga if you had gold it will extend game pass ultimate for 12 months and if you already have game pass and gold and you buy game pass ultimate it will extend it to 36 months. 3 fucking years of free games.
I loved this game. The story is great!
Del kept walking into the freezing water and dying when you meet that robot dude
Who's here after it went on games for gold?
I hope you guys make a before u buy of Blasphemous!
For some of us old school gamers who love good metroidvania with superb pixel art. This is a must.
Before you buy: stock up on Rockstar Energy Drinks, 5 cans gives you 5 extra content packs, Xbox Live Membership and Game Pass Membership. =D
And diabetes.
I destroyed my stomach the last time gears launched
@@mrjoop6889 One does not necessarily need to consume the beverage contained therein, but at last check purchasing 5 cans is cheaper than purchasing 14 days of Xbox Live Membership. ;)
Edit: ......and 14 days of Game Pass.
@@jamesknight3070 wow that's an amazing deal! Too bad in my 3rd world country we cannot have nice things...
Thats actually a pretty good deal and you get 5 drinks out of it too.
Great review! I get to play early, so tomorrow after work it's Gears time!
Yessir
I hate when people say "well, yea, there are microtransactions but they're all cosmetic so it's fine", like no, it's not fine, you're paying 60-70 bucks for a game and then if u wanna have different cosmetic options u have to waste more money again? Fuck no, companies limit way too much the customization aspect so they can sell skins and that's fine for free games but for a full-priced games is absolute nonsense, u get the "basic costumization pack" and then u need to pay for more, fuck outta here
Why do people care so much for cosmetics I never understood that, do you need bright coloured skins and emotes to appeal to you 4 year old brain
@@joelmedina9315 It's not a matter of appealing to anything, it's a matter of getting what u paid for. U are literally paying 60 bucks for the "vanila edition" of most games these days and if u want stuff that should have already been included u have to pay extra and that, to me, is just ridiculous
Wtf are you talking about, Gears 5 doesn't have microtransactions
Great review 👍 thanks for not spoiling
Glad there's game pass because this gears doesn't have me hyped haven't been since 3.
Please do a "before you buy" for Greedfall. It comes out on the 10th.
They said they will soon...
