  • Deep yet accessible gameplay, Feels like a natural extension of the franchise's best features, Another interesting kick to its constantly evolving lore, A new way to take in an old world
  • A few control and camera issues, Texture pop-in persists, Presentation looks and feels a bit bland
  • That depends. Being a Microsoft-owned IP, every game in the franchise is available on GamePass in some way. It's worth the $60 price tag to hardcore Gears fans and absolutely worth a few bucks to quickly run through if you're new to the franchise.Editors'...

  • Bold spin on a classic genre that makes me wish all turn-based games played like this, Engaging, fast-paced action means there's never a dull turn, AAA production from visual and audio departments alike,
  • Could have used an extra Act or two, and some more boss fights, to boot, Read More, Latest Games News, EVENT - Fortnite Party Royale Start Time, NEWS - FIFA 20 TOTS SF La Liga Squad, NEWS - Where is Xur in Destiny 2 May 8?, GUIDE - Pokemon Go Johto Challe

  • Great Story, Awesome Game Mechanics, Good Character Customisation, Feels lIke a Gears Game
  • Mission Types Can Get Repetitive, Micro-Management is Annoying
  • If you've been wanting to play a strategy turn-based game that isn't XCOM and has a great story to go with it, Gears Tactics will fill that void. Everything about the game is made with the utmost care and quality shows. Gears Tactics brings fresh game mec...

  • Abstract:  DOOM Eternal is one crazy game. Yes, that's right. Just the sheer madness the game brings, the high intensity moments, the overwhelming crowds, oh boy. This game will surely feel like a shot of 100% pure adrenaline from Columbia into the core of your cent...
