So, I did finish the game a few hours later.
Towards the end of that review, which focuses only on the single-player experience, I wrote that I had just begun playing the fifth and final of five acts and I was sure that, whatever happened, it would not impact my view of the game. As has long been the case with the Gears franchise, I have a mixed reaction to this game, which delivers an incredible graphical and audio presentation and a great, immersive experience … that falls flat because of its repetitive, tedious, and derivative game play. Since posting my Gears of War 4 review yesterday, I finally finished the grueling and tedious single player campaign, and I have a few more thoughts about Microsoft’s rejuvenated gaming franchise, and the latest game, which could have been so much better.įirst, please do read my review.
