Arrived fast. Packaged just right. After being used to the XBox 360 this unit is heavy for the size. I am very happy with the artistic design on the council and the controller is really nice also. Everything was included. Hookup was easy as pie. Entering the game codes as Iype this review.

Great aesthetic detail!

Been a Gears fan since day one and always have enjoyed Xbox. I love the design and detail that was put into the aesthetics of the console. As far as running it, the machine has noticeable speed increases and graphics quality is really good! Very satisfied with this purchase!

Pre-ordered, arrived late, but worth it.

I usually don't write reviews, but this is an exception. The overall design is gorgeous, love the laser etched cracks, and the sound it makes when you turn it on is soothing. Performance, can't really say anything on this because I don't play with 4K graphics or the like. Seriously Microsoft, with the next console make the battery emedded and rechargeable, batteries for consoles should've disappeared during the Xbox 360 era. Aside from that, I believe this is worth every penny, not only for visual traits, but for the overall value in games being over $100.

Awesome box and game bundle

Finally! A limited edition I could get behind. Have spent countless near sleepless nights grinding out games in the gears universe. Glad to have the white skull LE box with native 4k and winter controller.

The Worlds Best Console

It's the best in everything graphics, design, speed, exclusive games, controls, everything. Nothing is going to get better than this. I love the design. It also makes a sound when you turn the console and and off that comes from gears 5 the game. Finally they made a limited edition console like the always use to do on the 360's. Worth every penny.

Beautiful on the eyes

A wonderful looking xbox one X love how they're giving you the Gears Of War 5 ultimate edition alongside the rest of the series. The console has been lazered into to give it real looking cracks as well as the controller just a amazing console honestly just wish it was a 2tb instead of one.

Very cool submerged effect.

Beautiful console and it looks more beautiful in person. Love how it looks submerged beneath the xbox one x.

MidLife Crisis Console

Love my XBox One X Gears5 edition, me and my wife spoke of upgrading the media center in the bedroom (PS3) with just another Amazon FireStick and I noticed that this was about to hit the market so for a 42 year old man that’s all he loves to do on Xbox One X is play all the Gears of War games because it the only game I love on Xbox One X

A beautiful console for an enduring franchise.

As a huge fan of all things Gears, I was so stoked when they announced this console. Every detail mentioned in previous media for it is there: the omen shrouded under multiple layers of epoxy, giving it the look of being buried under the ice; the laser etching across the face, emulating cracks; the start up and down sounds of crackling ice sheets, invoking a frozen tundra. The console, just as the Gears 4 Swarm Xbox 1 S, is flawless. If you wanted to nitpick, there are a few details. The console comes with the ultimate edition of Gears 5, digital of course, but it also comes with a month of Xbox game pass, a subscription service that itself includes the ultimate edition. The only difference is the console includes arctic skins for Kait and Jack. Considering that game pass is also running a two months for two bucks deal, it just seems a bit cheesy to have a copy of the game as well as a sub service that includes the same version for so cheap that everyone has it. Also, though the console is superb, I'd hoped the startup sounds contained a bit more visual flair. In the same way Gears 4 emulated Gears 1 with a bombastic soundtrack, Gears 5 seems to mirror Gears 2 with a bit more of a mysterious tinge. Both of these themes bleed into the console noises - where Gears 4's console got the sound of a Juvie screeching and some nice trumpeting soundtrack beats, this console instead features the ice crackling heavily, and a slight string note that is reminiscent of Gears 2's soundtrack during the New Hope Research Facility section: mysterious and intriguing. All in all though, this package is well worth the money.

Very Pleased, ready to get my 4K gaming on

About two years ago, I bought and reviewed (here on Amazon) the Xbox One S Limited edition Gears of War 4 console. After time had passed by and feeling the need to play some games in either 4K or 60FPS (Witcher 3, Gears 5, RDR2, etc.) I decided I wanted to pick up an Xbox One X. What a coincidence that 2 years later they would bring out a Limited edition Gears of War 5 console when I was already looking to pick one up, so of course I preordered. Let me start by saying that the first thing that jumped out to me was that this consoles box is the same exact size as the Xbox One S box, and the way the console is packaged is exactly the same, which is fine because it's quick and easy to open (Especially compared so my Spider-Man PS4 Pro Console). Comparing this side by side to the Gears 4 console, the design is less aggressive and more subtle then the Gears 4 console which was flaming red all over (as well as the controller) but there are some thing I prefer more about this console, I love the Translucent Cog logo on the console and the design underneath the console of the Locust Symbol as well as the Black/gold look of the bottom, it's eye catching. So let's talk about what comes in the box? You get the Gears Console, Limited Edition Controller, Gears 5 Ultimate download code, Xbox Live 1 Month Free Trial, and Xbox Game Pass 1 Month Free Trial. It's actually a lot of content and when you factor in you're only paying $100 more than a regular Xbox One X this proves to be a good value. Overall, I am satisfied and would buy this again, it gives you the most powerful console currently available with the Ultimate Edition of Microsoft's Flagship title.
