Prioritising 60fps was the right decision, it's a joy to play
That should always be the priority tbh. Frames over graphics any day.
Cries in One S
@@Minnevan I've heard its still fairly impressive on the S
Even though it isn't a consistent 60fps..
@@pcgameboy8407 it's pretty consistent, I hadn't noticed any drop playing the first couple missions. Not that I can remember, anyway.
Either way, compared to Microsoft's recent output, it plays great
I feel old I remember playing gears of war from 2006 like it was yesterday
Me too. I actually got to play Cliff Blizenski online on E-day. He was a jerk....
Same bro
Damn straight
Good times. It's funny us Halo and Gears fans are the old crowd now. 😄
Me too dude, me too.
I remember getting my original 360 together with the Limited Edition of Gears of War and played it the first few weeks on a tiny crt TV before my first HD TV arrived.
Regardless of this I was blown away
And best of all, you could experience this for the low-price of an Xbox Game Pass subscription. Microsoft are really playing their cards right.
too little too late
maxim menage hardly
@@windmacher better late than too late
maxim menage
Better late than never!
I spent $2 to play this, no regrets
that 60fps feels so damn good
Rightttt
My friend worked on this game and I'm super proud of him!
Who
I'm proud for him as well.
It looks really good.
why didn't they wait unti lthe ps5/xbox 2 ?
@@jorrgfromage9929 it looks amazing on X1X and s. It will probably get enhanced on Scarlett.
Sure he did. My friend also worked on it. In fact he's the lead developer. LOL.
It’s crazy that people really tried to argue that Gears 5 isn’t one of the best looking games this generation 😂.
Man the Xbox hate is real.
It's definitely the best looking 60fps game this generation no denying
Yup, it is :'(
I'm utterly disappointed with MS and Xbox. It's so bad, they now disgust me. Non stop hype with nothing to show for it. Gears 5 is the ONLY redeeming game of the whole generation and it's only due to the hard work on the part of the Coalition....not MS. Halo, and every other game is pretty much garbage or a better experience on PC. If you want a variety of exclusives, go to Sony. Sad part is, WHY did it take so long to clean up the game engine for Gears and WHY do other devs not get it? READ this as HALO infinite game engine garbage. Gears looks great on current gen and will only do better next gen. MS...hey lets dump that and focus on this POS Halo infinite that look like it was maybe last gen at best.....high fives around table at that point.
@@Rufnek2014 Tbh forza motorsport is a pretty impressive technical achievement. It has exceptional graphics and even better resolution than gt sport and the only let down is them not having animated pitstops which would be easy af but the devs are just too lazy.
Also, Forza 7's bad lighting was completely a design choice by the devs. Forza 6 back in 2015 had amazing lighting and godray implementation.
And it ran mostly 55-60fps on a console like the one s. That is a big deal.
Looks like a 360 game 80% of the time.
And they didn't wanna show off campaign at E3..... lol
What a rollercoaster of doubt its been by some gamers and the freakin' game media,but it turned out so damn good in the end!
I just started playing, it does look amazing on my 4K TV played on Xbox One X.
I’m currently playing on my 4K TV on Xbox One S with HDR turned on and I gotta say although it’s not in 4K it looks absolutely fantastic!
Its not 4k Lol
@@soad48 bruh, ur telling him what his tv is and isn't??? It's his tv what r u talking about LMFAO
@@MrGoldenfresh The GAME, the native resolution its not 4k
@XboxTh3Beast4K Uncharted Lost Legacy have better graphics
I have a crazy PC and I must say, this game looks Freaking Incredible on the Xbox One X with a nice Real HDR set. Honestly Coalition, well done 👏👏👏
Btw, thank you for Play Anywhere; cloud sync'd saves and cross PC and Xbox multiplayer. Also, I haven't beat it yet, but damm is it gooood. Gameplay is awesome and the story too. I can't wait to see what happens!
josh hummel that's great and at the same time unfortunate because the fanboys grab that to throw shit .. apparently if microsoft thinks about the user is all wrong
Game is simply BEAUTIFUL.
Looks like a 360 game 80% of the time.
@@wordsshackles441 If you were on the base Xbox One I could understand you saying that when you put it up against the Xbox One version of Gears 3. Playing on the Xbox One X and now the Series X on a nice TV at native resolution really shows how well optimized this game is.
@@wordsshackles441it quite literally doesn't.
Impressive, how can they pull of this performance and fidelity on this hardware?!
Because they made games for console
Unreal engine
It's The Coalition. Only Epic Games knows Unreal Engine better than them.
Game is seriously amazing and the best Gears since the original trilogy. Easily a 9/10 in my opinion
Yep easy 9/10. I'd argue it's up there with the first game with what it's accomplished as a complete package.
I agree.
It's getting there
Those real time rendering on cutscenes makes having an ultrawide Monitor feel so good
What ultrawide do you have?
xboxgamer the LG 1440p 34in Ultrawide Gaming monitor
Playing on my x in 4k HDR I'm spending so much time walking round looking at the scenery this game blows my mind iv never seen graphics like this
It blew me away when I turned resolution to 8K on PC. The framerate gets locked 60fps. And the game doesn't even support SLI.
With this level of optimisation, I am sure MS can deliver native 8K titles on the next gen console.
I'm with you, this is awesome! I can't wait to get a TV with VRR for next-gen!
They went above and beyond on Gears 5 can't wait to see how it looks with a update for the next systems...Halo it's your turn
Cant wait to see how Halo going to look and perfom
Halo on a brand new engine will look superb no doubt.
greastest game on xbox... still had bug that unable to continue but yeah it is good overall.. a must own...
campkira stfu Sony millenial
Halo 5 is 4k 60fps and is 4 years old.
You got to love the twilight years of a console gen. Last 3 years of the still current- gen produce some of the best looking games yet AND we have the 1 year cross gen year when games on last-gen consoles start looking somewhat visually compromised if they would've been made just for those consoles, but somewhat more expansive and ambitious given they need to be a showcase for new consoles as well.
For 6th gen, games on PS2/GameCube/Xbox were really something to behold between 2004-2006 compared to early gen years. Examples: Thief Deadly Shadows, Need for Speed Most Wanted, Half-life 2, Doom 3, Riddick, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, Tomb Raider Legend, Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess, God of War 2, Metroid Prime 2/3, Rogue Squadron (or whatever it was called, the trilogy of Star Wars games available on Gamecube), Resident Evil 4.
7th gen: Gears of War 3, God of War 3, Uncharted 3, Batman Arkham City, Witcher 2, Far Cry 3-4, Assassin's Creed 3-4, Bioshock Infinite, Metro Last Light, DMC, Tomb Raider 2013/Rise, NFS Hot Pursuit/Run/MW2012/Rivals, Crysis 2/3, Resident Evil 6, Max Payne 3, GTA V, Battlefield 3/4.
And now, 8th gen: God of War 2018, Spider-Man 2018, Last of Us 2, Gears 5, Cyberpunk, Watch Dogs Legion, RDR2, Metro Exodus, DMC5, RE2REmake, Horizon 4, Control, Battlefield 1/5, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Doom Eternal.
9th gen visuals will be mind-blowing, especially late-gen, about 2025-2029.
Yea especially since NOT every generation gets an entirely NEW game engine, this next 9th gen will have 2 new game engines entirely built from ground up 2020 and beyond.
Which means (as you said) - after a few years...by the mid-way point for the 9th gen (when games that are being created/started NOW in early development) IE like Elder Scrolls VI (which as much as Bethesda gets alot of hate/visceral as of late) well they are outsourcing its development (part Bethesda in-house dev + Obsidian games with Chris Avellone you know the guy from Fallout: new Vegas lead designer, and Wasteland 2, and Divinity: Original Sin 2, as well as early 2000s CRPG titles like Planescape: Torment, and Neverwinter Night, as well as Baldurs Gate II: Shadows of Amn) he was also a lead designer during the Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind era.
So a great developer + new game engine + entirely new gen
Don't forget Halo Infinite!
Excellent comment! This deserves more upvotes
In 7th gen you forgot to put Forza motorsport 4 and Horizon 1 they were awsome looking games in terms of graphics
Halo 4 too
This game is looking great! Good vid, as always DF!
The monetization is still a scam. People are too dumb to realize just how bad it is because the model obfuscates its predatory methods. Monetization should never be included in full priced games. Ever.
@@ionseven You got to be trolling and complex it..Gears is good..Selling good and looks good..Simple stuff ..Nothing hard about that to figure
超越你 6 hours of gameplay ...tsk
DETERMINOLOGY gears is good..but the gameplay is 6 hours only
@@MrBenedick14
No chance, it's 14 minimum.
gears 5 is a title that highlights that the original xbox isn't quite so underpowered while it absolutely shines on the X. Great optimization on the PC as well. This is how games should be developed. I'm really impressed with what Microsoft has been doing on PC in few years
just launching their games on pc was a masterstroke in itself !!
The Xbox one was underpowered at launch wtf are you talking about
gpu wise yes. CPU wise it's basically the same thing with the ps4. they tried to compensate this with the Esram, but apart from first party titles nobody really bothered to take advantage of it hence the lower resolution and performance. this was caused by the fact that the ps5 was easier to code for and in most cases it became the leading development platform. The problem is that xbox had very few exclusives to make the console shine. Same thing happened with ps3 last gen when they decided to split the memory in 2 blocks of 256 mb xdr dram and one gdddr3. the 360 had only a gddr3 module of 512 and that ESram that continued on the one. But PS3 had good exclusives, late gen games looked way better than what the xbox could ever do. multiplatform games, not so much. I still stand with my opinion, it's just a shame that xbox didn't quite really shined this gen
I don't care about the original xbox one or one S
I waited till 2019...I got the gears of war 5 xbox one X edition (the special edition) and it's nice
Next gen = around the corner but I can wait for a year or 2 (2021 2022) let the kinks work out.
Either way exciting time it is
Gears 5 looks amazing!! I hope this is a glimpse of the standard MS are aiming for and to further improve on next gen.
Will make me one very happy XB scarlett user!! Looking forward to playing this over the weekend.
I'd say their first party team will run the gambit. Playground, Turn10, Coalition, 343 and The Initiative will be the "AAA" studios i imagine. Ninja Theory probably falls more in the AA but who knows, being part of Microsoft they could easily pump out true AAA titles (all due respect to Hellblade cause visually that game is def AAA but gameplay was a bit repetitive).
I wouldn't get excited because only Microsoft studios get this kinda treatment all 3rd party titles are ported and watered down. Dev's arent porting there games the right way these days.
Imagine Halo Infinite how great will be 😍
@@redhunter1535 I know!! Properly excited for that! :)
Anthony Rosario thats cause sony is paying said devs to make the xbox versions worse then they actually arez. Sony has forever been manipulating and buying the competition they cant make business any other way
It's incredible how far gaming tech has come. Been playing games since the atari and I only dreamed of games looking this good. Can't wait to see what comes next.
I've been playing games since the Magnavox Odyssey. Do you remember that?
I'm part of that club. I would have never left the house so I'm glad that games were hardware and software limited in my childhood.
Same here I can't wait for next gen systems..
I started with the Commodore 128, Nes, and the Sega Master System. Actually, before I started this I played my new Genesis Mini the day before. I fired Gears on my Xbox One X on a high end 4K UHD display.
I have played some amazing games on our One X's and PSPRO's (my fiancee and I are gamers with multiples of every machine). The absolute cream of the crop has been Metro Exodus, Resident Evil 2 Remake, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Devil May Cry....Gears V easily runs with these games like nobodies business. I love the Gears series but I must admit, I thought the fourth game was a little...lackluster. The campaign just seemed, I don't know, meh. It was at least a chapter too short. They could have given it another hour or so and it would have made the difference.
Just one gamers take that started gaming in 1985. I have owned/own every single console that has ever hit US shores. My fiancee and I have a room dedicated to retro gaming. We have a full sized arcade in our living room with real stand up coin-op cabinets. Further, our master bedroom has 2 Xbox One X's, 2 PSPRO'S, and 2 Switches connected to 2 4K UHD screens. We both are life long gamers that are serious about gaming. She began in the mid-90's with the Sega Genesis/Sega CD and PSX. It has been a great deal of fun sharing so much she never had a chance to experience before.
At any rate, sorry for the long post.
I always thought the eyes looked very lifelike in this game. That's one thing a lot of studios screw up on. The face looks very detailed but yet sometimes the character has dead eyes. Idk what it is but the eyes in this game actually show character and emotion
GEARS 5 is a modern day masterpiece. imo its the 1st next gen like game.
I think in my opinion the 1st next gen like game is gonna be the last of us part 2
i think death stranding will be the 2nd next gen like game this year and yah G5 is amazing
I can't wait to see how The Coalition updates the game to make use of Scarlet when it releases next year, similar to how they patched Gears 4 for the X.
@@omarsabir1210 depends. Gears is also sporting bigger levels. Last of us 2 is going to look amazing but we don't know the scale yet.
The game is 4k 60 with so many amazing graphical detials and again all at 60fps on console
I think gears 5 last of us 2 , arkam knight and red dead redemption will be seen as this generations best looking games
The first Gears of War blew my mind as to what consoles could do graphically, and Gears 5 still continues that tradition 13 years later. What a beautiful game!
As a PS4Pro owner I would say that Xbox One & X players are in for a treat, that looks absolutely amazing 😎
It sucks you guys have all those fantastic single player exclusives but they run on a potato box.
@@patrickoakley7890 Still runs 1000x better than switch, but that does Not matter at all
Lucas Camargo who was talking about switch?
@@LucasCamargo827 LUCAS! !!
@@nicolasmartinez4337 I said that graphics does Not matter,got It?
Over two years later and technically, the One X version of this game still wipes the floor with many Series X 'optimised' titles.
Gears 5 and it's Hivebusters Expansion are the best Gears since Gears 2
I remember breakable ice being planned for shadow moses in mgs4 before being cut for being too complicated. Nice to see it resurface in 2019
I tried Gears 5 last night on PC thanks to Game Pass Ultimate. I was blown away! Solid 4K60, HDR, and Dolby Atmos. The facial animations, lighting, and ultra detailed texture made for a eye watering presentation.
So impressed that although I have access to Gears5, I am going to purchase it on Steam. This games deserves to be in my Steam Library!
Rtx?
chris pomplun
Yea. RTX 2080TI
2080 is the best. And gears 5 takes advantage of ray tracing ?
What monitor do u have ?
Hi chris pomplun. Gears 5 does not support Ray Tracing. I think that is a good thing. If G5 supported ray tracing, most likely I would have had to play at 1080p or 30 FPS. Not worth it. My PC is hooked up to both a LG OLED 77” C8 and a Alienware 3440x1440 21:9 ultra wide monitor.
Dang its drops from 4k to 1080 when ray tracing is going? And nice 77 oled. I have the 1x hooked to 65 oled. Maybe the xbox 2 will 4k ray trace.
It seems gears 5 sets a new high for HDR. I am very very impressed. I hope you guys also analize that. thanks!
60 FPS on console should be the mkting for next gen
@Real Gamer Next generation consoles will basically be PC's. You will be able to choose 30 or 60fps and upscaled or Native 4k with both PS5 and Next Xbox supporting Free Sync.
ZackSNetwork change your comment to 30, 60 and 120 fps and 4K and 8K. Then you’d be correct
@@Thealan93 noooo plz god noooo (meme)
@@ZackSNetwork All consoles are basically PCs.

Gears 5 e is one of the best looking games this whole generation.
lol
I'm sorry but I like how God of War and uncharted looked as well. These 3 are the best looking games this generation 😎
Red dead Redemption 2 has the best graphics, Gears 5 the 2nd best. But next generation Halo Infinite, oh boy those graphics will be f##### awesome.
@@eleven99 What !? are you blind?
Have you guys ever played hunt showdown on PC?
Absolutely amazing graphics definitely one of the best this gen
Played it on PC with Insane settings turned on and nah, I've seen better, even at the beginning of the gen or even before this gen even started, Crysis 3 says hi
@@ScariestMovieScenes lol right...
@@ReLapse85 I mean it should come at no surprise that a game running at 4k 60 on a console isn't going to look better than a 30 fps game where the visuals can be pushed even further, early gen games like Ryse Son of Rome or even Assassins Creed Unity are still in the top 5 of best looking games from this gen, I mean Unity looks so good they're using the game to rebuild Notre Dame, and Control with the raytracing enabled set some new standards in real time Global Illumination and Reflective Surfaces as well
And I'm not saying Gears 5 isn't looking good, it's just not the impressive showcase anymore that it used to be, due to prioritizing a higher framerate
@@ScariestMovieScenes get ur eyes checked ASAP
@UMA DELÍCIA Killzone on PS4 looked better than AC or Ryse. Ryse also wasn't 1080p on Xbox One.
Man there's a lot of salty PS4 Fanboys bent out of shape because of this game. Just talkin mad shit. It's like what the hell? I was the first to say God of War was an amazing game and Horizon zero Dawn. But all these people saying it's not a great looking game are in denial. And probably haven't even seen it on an Xbox One X. And that's not even mentioning the Dolby Atmos support which sounds amazing on my 5.1.2 surround sound. Headphones or 5.1 don't even come close. Hearing a helicopter or the wind blow above your skid is immersive as hell. Just a badass game. I'm getting some more faith in Microsoft after this one. Can't wait to see what they do with Halo infinite.
Is it fun? That's what matters most.
Looks like a 360 game 80% of the time.
It's a god damn technical masterpiece.
lol it's the same game reskined for years controls feel like you are driving a trailer truck, you can almost see bullets everything is clunky, and you can finish it in two days. the games it self is basically a Mad Max with different characters and a worse story

Cool I'm literally downloading it right now
I'm so thankful Xbox is supporting split-screen and coop in such an amazing way.
This!
Have to agree with this comment. More games should support split screen gaming. I get it drops performance for some games but coop is need in quite a few games. Plus it good to share.
This is absolutely amazing looking, even though I only have a base xbox one I'm excited to nerd out over when I eventually get it. Might even get it on steam
Upgrade asap to Xbox one X, 1080p looks bonkers with 4k textures and 60fps I swear on my life you will not regret it.
Still looks pretty good on the og xbox one. Frame rate is a problem in single player. Much better in multiplayer.

In my opinion this is the best looking game in consoles for this generation so far
Have you even played RDR2 on the XB1X or how about GOW on PS4 Pro? Those are just 2 games I can think of off the top of my head that have much higher graphical fidelity and I could easily pick out a dozen more if I went over to my game box shelf. G5 is a beautiful game, but it had to make some visual sacrifices on order to hit the 60fps target (I'm glad they did.) Those other games look way better graphically because they only have a 30fps target.
@@aaronpingle9839 yeah i did played them and im pretty sure i said "in my opinion" and opinion are diffrents you know
@@mehdirmy4578 most comments on YT are just opinions. That doesn't mean they are free from being criticized.
Red Dead 2 was an amazing game. The detail was amazing . It looked fantastic on my Xbox One X but this seems more crisper than that game. God of War was a badass looking game and a badass game in general. But that 4K 60 looks so good though. It's a toss-up. I guess it just depends on what you prefer.
Plus the HDR is amazing on this game. I wasn't a big fan of the HDR implementation on Red Dead 2. But Red Dead 2 and God of War we're better games in my opinion. They just didn't look as good.
The Gears series has always been an eye candy imo.
Like Unreal and UnrealTournament in the early years, Gears continues the ultimate showcase of the Unreal Engine capabilities.
Plus Xbox is the only console to have Dolby Atmos for gaming...

@@carbonsuicidemtb1583 Playstation is so sad that can't compete with quality games such as God of War who who numerous of GOTY awards, Spiderman and Horizon Zero Dawn and not to mention Bloodborne which sits at 90+ in metacritic. Seriously dude, any sane people knows who has the best quality games especially with exclusives.
Carbon suicide mtb Are you high girl? That must be some high quality drugs your smoking. I want some. Listen, you can say Gears 5 is a quality game without sounding dumb, but saying that PlayStation exclusives can't compete makes you sound like an abortion that lived.
@@tobymescal9050 name me one PlayStation exclusive with good online, then name one with excellent online like gears, Forza, or halo? Oh dear, there is nothing, at all, ever and nothing in the pipeline, with the failed VR console that can't do even half of 4k, so what you are saying is low resolution walking stories define gaming in the online 2019 world? You need to get a grip soy boy, what's up? Might playing a fast paced online exclusive make you spill your soy latte? Sony's complete lack of skill at making any good online games is why you all suffer with loot box's and the truly awful COD and star wars franchises, PlayStation, the only console for you if your a simpleton gamer, you've just been schooled with facts beta male
Amazing job Coalition! What a game! 🤩
Can't believe people are downvoting this. Terrific analysis John and what a stunning 60fps game, running on low-end CPUs from 2013. Unbelievable. Can't wait to see the next Halo now!
PS fanboys downvoting, which is just silly
As a PS4 gamer, I'm really impressed by this game. I really wonder how this one holds a steady 60 FPS even without compromising a bit on the visual side.. wizardry?!
Riaz Watch Crowbat's video about Gears 5
Aditya Shahapure It's 30fps on Xbox One and Xbox One S, and it's compromising so many details to keep 60 on X, go watch Crowbat's Gears 5 vs Gears 2 comparison
@@kenway346 Fanboyism in this day and age is pointless. If Sony or Microsoft were to exit the market, it would be bad news for gamers. All gamers should respect games that break boundaries, regardless of platform!
Leaving resolution open to scaling means they are future proofing the game. The next console will likely hold 4k more often and lock at 60. On my PC, I can't express how beautiful it is. Having a blast. Well done COA.
This is the best looking console game I've ever seen.
It’s very impressive. Played last night on my X1X/LG C9 OLED and its 4K/60/HDR/VRR is immaculate. Right up there with God of War, Witcher 3, AC: Odyssey, RDR2 as one of this gen’s stars. Just as importantly it’s a terrific game. I honestly thought Gears was dead and buried after the yawn fest of 4. But The Coalition have learned and grown and taken a huge stride forward. Kudos chaps. And man do they know how to wield UE4. Great stuff. MS must be mighty relieved. Feels like the game they’ve wanted and needed for a long while.
Gears 5 shines on OLED, fantastic looking game with great gameplay.
Same looks great on my E8 with my 2080Ti. Locked 4k 60hz maximum settings. Beautiful.
Those are some good looking cutscenes
I'm on my One X now playing, Wow man they did a damn good job on this game bruh
15:43 Not quite entirely... I found some disappointingly baked light and shadows in some of the interior sections of the desert Act.
Tested this out on my GTX 1080 after a few hours of playing on the X, it runs at a native 4K 60fps and everything at Ultra, something that Gears 4 couldn't do on this card, its baffling how they got this so optimised.
Had an all nighter playing this and I'm still only on Act 2 lol
Gears 4 -> Unreal Engine 3, Gears 5 -> Unreal Engine 4.
Gears 4 was Unreal Engine 4 same as this
My bad, yes Gears 4 was on Unreal Engine 4 as well.
The game looks outstanding!!
But in Gears 1 you could destroy wooden wardrobe. In G5 you can`t :(
This game is phenomenal Xbox is on fire. Microsoft back to the monster they once where. Greatest comeback in videogame history. Just think they have 15 studios now and coalition isn't even in their top 2. We haven't seen nothing yet, can't wait for fall 2020.
Say what
there isn't any exclusive games on xbox u muppet 1 or 2 at best very poor for the quality of the hardware
Not trying to kill your parade but Microsoft should and typically does get around 80's+ for their only three good games they make. Halo, Gears, and Forza. This game will be a great experience and there is nothing wrong with that, but Microsoft has failed to execute outside these franchises for almost 6 years.Its almost criminal how badly they have managed first and second party relationships. Its been so long that its a masters degree in patience. Its going to be a while longer even before we even have a chance at seeing success from them. I think Obsidian and Ninja Theory are their biggest value adds without a doubt, playground games already worked closely with Microsoft...., but we don't know how they will perform under the Microsoft banner. The new Ninja Theory game looks bad/feels bad man, I hate to say that because I like Ninja Theory. They have a terrible history managing studios this generation. To include dissolving Lion Head studios for forcing them to make a game that would fail and then letting them hold the bad bag when it did. Saying they will get Japanese developers on board and then cancel Platinum Game's Scalebound when they could have easily added value to the platform and just ate the cost of the game. Demanding that Bungie make Halo until they die and forcing one of the most talented mature studios that they had to leave their platform. Lets all hope that they give their talent the creative latitude and freedom necessary to create new experiences commensurate with the brand. The 360 literally had 4 times the first party content that this generation has and that is saying something. Also we have been waiting till next E3 for so long I could have had a child, taught him to ride a bike, do chores and read basic words before a good lineup from Microsoft will be out in full force. I have been buying Xbox for almost 20 years now, I wont be touching the hardware again or at least until I see some actual results from the platform. Until then I will play on PC in better quality anyway. What I am saying in the end Gears 5 is a start but its also to be expected. Show me a new AAA IP that does as well or better and I am on board again.
@@chrisahmed8660 2 games lol can you at least be factual. Tsk tsk tsk that lame no game burn no longer works. They are delivering on all fronts now and it's only getting better. Gone is the Xbox of 2015. Trying to hate on the system now just makes people look stupid. Not only that Gamepass is absolutely killer since all exclusives going forward are on it. Also in October Xcloud comes out and will transcend Xbox beyond simply a console. I can't wait they doing everything right now. Next Gen will only get better than it already is.
@@joshuasterling2144Lol no worries my parade is bright and sunny and my 2nd external hardrive is almost full. If you think they have only 3 exclusive games over the total of this generation you either don't have an Xbox or have not payed any attention to any games outside of those 3. You still speaking like this is the old Xbox they are on fire and also with gamepass there is just no shortage of games exclusive or otherwise.
Man this game looks terrific. The Dolby atmos sound is also great
I came for the Gears 5 video, and stayed for John Linneman.
I’m not bitter!!!!!
It´s a MONSTER
Gears 5 is so different than the previous Gear games. It takes a lot influences from Uncharted and Last of Us, it’s absolutely brilliant.
This is perhaps the Best first party Xbox One game to date. Awesome work by the guys at the Coalition 👍
I haven't seen any inspiration from Naughty Dog, at all. I do see God of War in Gears 5 though. God of War went from linear to open hubs that you could explore, side missions etc. Gears 5 is now alot more open than the previous games.
Not seeing the Naughtydog influence here in GOW either. There's a tonne of semi open world games that set the scene before Uncharted and The Last Of Us.
This is without question the best Gears game since the original. It maybe even the best Gears game of all time.
Shisha CEO Uncharted 4 and Lost legacy both were open hub which encouraged exploration, same with Gears. I can see the God of war influences as well, the Coalition are stepping up big time. Hope they continue this upward trend.
Best Xbox one game to date no doubt in my mind now.
Played it. Sound is sublime. Visuals is top notch! Gameplay is cinematic! Well done one x
you mentionned everything but "fun"
how the fuck can gameplay be cinematic, if anything the presentation can be cinematic
We have came a long way in gaming in 30 years, imagine 30 more
GTA V for PS10
One of the best and most polished looking game on the base Xbox one .....and also Metro exodus looked good
The performance dips almost seem like they could be tied to HDD streaming?
There is no better way to spend some minutes on a Sunday watching John talking about the visualization of skin oil in UE4!
And gears 5 proved how trash it is.
@@TheREALHugo4 Then you need some glasses... Gosh that hate-train is stupid here.
Looks amazing
Looking great on My PC
looks better than god of war, and at twice the framerate! very impressive!
MrAdam802 dnt say that why do u wanna start a flame war
Of course it's a 60 fps game.G5 is a fast pace shooter and God of War is only a story driven game. God of war does have a performance mode that targets 60 fps on PS4 Pro. I've only seen very few titles match the graphicsl quality of God of War
preach
@@thomashannah6863 people say the graphical quality of God of war all the time but the reality is God of war looks amazing on a 1080 TV but on a 4k it's good but gears just stomped on it here and hitting high resolution and 60fps just amazing,
And double the resolution
As an X owner, this vid has sold me on grabbing game pass just for this title and Ive never even played a GEARS😂. Great job MS and Coalition. 4k/60? Yup SOLD!
Agreed. I've never truly dived deep into Gears franchise. Thanks Xbox GPU! I'll be back after the weekend ;)
game runs/looks amazing on a Samsung QLED. Thank you Samsung
The Dolby Atmos sound is also INCREDIBLE.
best looking game ever.
Can't wait to see Alex's analysis of this for PC. Gone be sweet.
I think DF really downplays the difference between 60 fps and 30 fps. If you play a game at 60 fps and go and try to play the same game at 30, it will feel choppy.
Unless its on a nintendo platform. Switch gets a blind eye turned to almost every game despite being qualitatively and quantitatively worse in every department, but these guys always find some way (except for Ark) to justify and praise every title despite glaring shortcomings.
And I hate when they sometimes say that motion blur at 30fps makes up for not being 60fps. 30fps with motion blur doesn't look like 60fps, it just looks choppy and blurry. And 30fps with motion blur damn well doesn't feel like 60fps either.
The difference between 30fps and 30fps with motion blur is one feels choppy and one feels choppy and is also blurry.
@@zybch Yep... On Switch the "analysis" goes out the window. Basically whatever it does is fine. Sometimes the standards are set so low that even my HP with UHD 620 could pass as a "gaming laptop"
3212Seis except your laptop can’t run any of the many great exclusive games of the Switch, but otherwise yeah.. pretty much the same thing
@Octav Roman They are praising the Switch because it's getting full fledge consoles games running on it. Keep in mind that the GPU and CPU is heavily downclocked due to the chipset being a 20nm SOC from 2015. Along with the Switch only having 4gbs of ram and only 25gbs of memorybandwit. They are really amazed at how a portable device with very low specs can run the AAA games that it's getting. If the Switch can do all this imagine what cutting edge mobile technology of today can achieve.
This is amazing stuff . It shows how a game development team can make great games if given the time and budget. Gears 5 kinda makes me regret selling my one S ...
To be honest, I thought the gore/dismemberment when using the shotgun on enemies was downgraded. It used to look really wild and dynamic now it just looks like they explode into prebaked bits everytime.
Excellent analysis. I wasn't sure about another Gears but this looks very good.
I'm a big Gears fan, and a fan of good graphics in general,... but the plant life in Gears 5 is very disappointing, especially after how well I seen it done in games like Tombraider.
It's like they put all graphical power into the characters but not as much in the environment(plants and some environment graphics).
But I am the type to pay attention to detail when it comes to games(like I'll zoom on a rock on the floor just to see how much detail was put in it lol),.... the average person might think it looks amazing.
But I do agree the character models and graphics are insane.
I noticed some of the texture work was questionable. Specifically if you look at the muzzle brake of the Pariah UIR tanks. However, this was on the S. Once I get my X, I'm going to go back and take a nice long look at that muzzle brake again and see how the texture work is with more power behind it.
@@helljumper5613 The thing is, I only play on an X and while in general graphics are good,.... it's just inconsistent like with the plant life having plain textures, and a few other environmental gripes I have.
The kind of skimped on some of the character animations and deaths too. I think people are being so dazzled by the polish of the fidelity that they aren't even noticing some of these things.
What a beautiful game
