Lengthy campaign ties up pretty much every loose end in the trilogy. Fourplayer cooperative mode provides ample reason to play and replay story missions. Deep multiplayer filled with fresh modes and unlockable status rewards will keep fans playing for months.
The fourplayer campaign has resulted in a slight but noticeable drop in difficulty. Narrative won’t do much to clam up series detractors who like to lay into the franchise’s penchant for soapy melodrama.
Epic Games saved the best for last, delivering a satisfying concluding campaign with mammoth cooperative play as well as the richest, deepest competitive multiplayer experience in the series. There’s no denying it’s fast-food storytelling (our tree-tr...
The best shooter you’ll find on any console. Great new weapons and enemies. Easy on the eye. Beast mode and Horde 2.0. Pretty much everything not listed under 'downs'.

Small refinements make for a much smoother gameplay experience, Graphics which outclass most of its contemporaries, Excellent & varied multiplayer modes.
Doesn't introduce many new gameplay elements, Feels somewhat familiar in places, Slightly underwhelming ending given the epic scale of the overall story.
Great Storyline, Polished graphical content, Copious amounts of violence, 4 Player co-op, Refined Multiplayer, Ties up all of the loose ends of previous games
Very Linear, Overpowered shotgun (multiplayer), Swearing becomes monotonous and over used rather than punctuated
Being a big fan of Gears of War franchise, it was with great anticipation and trepidation that I began to play through the campaign mode. I was fearful that EPIC may have taken the franchise a step too far and perhaps diluted the raw gameplay of the p...
