Gears of War story is simplistic Hollywoody drivel, but the cover shooter mechanics and melee carnage can be very satisfying, especially if you play in couch co-op with a friend.

 

Play whichever one you want. They're all the same game with graphics that get better over time. I'd start with Gears 4 and 5 and then maybe play the older ones if you really like it. The story really doesn't matter.

Depends if you like to see where the story is going. 2 and 3 are the better games really.

I think the first 3 games are alright.
Story is prolly the most enticing thing.

 

I replayed some of 2 semi-recently & it was uhh... boring?

That's just me though. If you can get into the game & like the chainsaw gun & curb stomping & homoeroticistic testosterone, sure. It's fun.
