Gears of War 4
\nIt\u2019s time for a review on a large game that everyone (err\u2026 most people) have had their eyes on – it\u2019s time to get gruesome with the newest installment of the Gears series. Let\u2019s find out if it\u2019s worthy of that name or if it puts the series to shame.
\nStory: now admittedly, I am brand new to the series so many aspects of this game or throwbacks are either brand new to me or go over my head. But I think I get the main idea of the story, many people are getting snatched away by creatures being called \u201cThe Swarm\u201d. You play as Marcus Fenix\u2019s son James, who is trying to rescue some of the crew. Later on you learn that these \u201cSwarm\u201d have some sort of connection with the old enemies called \u201cThe Locust\u201d, however we don\u2019t learn a whole lot in this game as it feels the developers are setting up for the story to really take place in a future installment.
\nGameplay: this game handles extremely well. It strongly urges the use of using cover as often as possible and the weapons while varied all feel incredibly satisfying to use. Whether killing an enemy by filling them with bullets or ripping them in half with a chainsaw, you\u2019ll be right at home no matter the weapon you enjoy using.
\nConclusion: this game is really enjoyable. It was well worth the price and I am always eager to get in and try out the multiplayer modes in the game. The story mode while not being short didn\u2019t feel like it dragged on too long, nor did I feel like it was ever a chore playing the game.
\nThat being said I personally didn\u2019t personally enjoy the three Fabricator segments in the story which are essentially wave survival modes.
\nScore: while this game does do a lot of things right, it is not without its flaws. The Fabricator sections feel like they breakup the story a bit too much and at times just feel forced on the player. As for the story, while being amazing, feels a bit like filler to prepare for a future game. I give this game a score of 7\/10 (note: this score is purely personal opinion and you should try the game for yourself before passing judgement)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
