Storyline

- TriviaIn a break from previous games, the game's official title is "Gears 5," dropping the "of War" part of the title. This was a change that Rod Fergusson was pushing for, as using "of War" in conjunction with titles such as Gears Pop! and Gears Tactics felt cumbersome. He noted that "Gears X" was already common shorthand to describe the numbered installments of the series. Xbox marketing boss Aaron Greenberg clarified that the series itself still retains the name "Gears of War," though actual installments will simply use the "Gears" title. This was heavily criticized by fans as they preferred the title remain as "Gears of War".
- GoofsThe maximum ammunition for each weapon should be a multiple of the capacity for each magazine, since it doesn't make sense to have partially filled magazines; however, the maximum ammunition doesn't always equal a multiple of the magazine size for each weapon.

Better Than Generally Accepted
Overall Rating: 7.5 / 10
"Gears 5" is what I consider to be the second best installment in the legendary "Gears of War" franchise. Additionally, it might very well be the among the better third person shooters of all time. While it is lacking in choice, environment interaction, and customization; it provides an exciting experience in which the player can enjoy a gritty and gorey game with an intriguing story. If you still have not picked this game up, I strongly recommend it.

Pros:
- Compelling story, characters, and voice acting.
- Above average visuals, sound fx, and music.
- Exciting combat with many different ways to play.
- Unique class system that heavily improves the gameplay.
- Many different types of modes and difficulties to enjoy.
Cons:
- Once you've beaten most of the game, it gets pretty boring.
- All modes feel extremely repetitive.
- Not very fun without friends to play it with.
