Big game announced tomorrow.

Looks like this was one of the announcements ( apologies if already posted )

I hope it's Gears, not sure about Black Tusk but it's good to know Rod Fergusson is overseeing it.

 

The Xbox Wire article doesn't necessarily state that they're going to make a new Gears of War game, only that they've acquired the rights to do whatever they want with the franchise (although a new game is very likely at this point). Personally, I'm going
to wait & see what they do with it to form an actual opinion on the matter. The franchise for me has grown stale for the most part. I also miss CliffyB - he was awesome!

 

Because most gamers are.... lol lets not go there. I think this is great news even tho I have not got into gears but will sell well why not get something you know will sell a million. Only makes sense.

Fyi, black tusk is undergoing more than one project

 

Here u go guys this is from the former EPIC man himself

The one constant is change

Friends,

Waking up today I was drowning in a deluge of emails, tweets, direct messages and smoke signals.

My former employer has sold the Gears of War IP/franchise to Microsoft and my friend Rod Fergusson is going to be working on it.

To be honest, I don’t think the franchise could be in better hands. Heck, Rod’s Twitter handle, to this day, is “Gears Viking.” Gears is just as much Rod’s baby as it was mine. He’ll take good care of her. (Rod, I owe you a girly drink at GDC.)

Phil Spencer went out of his way to give me a phone call to inform me of the transaction last week. Phil, you didn’t have to do that, you’re a gentleman. I appreciate it; that goes a long way. 343 knocked it out of the park with Halo and I think Black Tusk
will do a fantastic job with Gears.

I suppose this puts the nail in the coffin of the question “Will Gears ever come to Playstation?”

Safe to say that’s not likely to happen. (Besides, it gives me something to look forward to on Xbox One besides Titanfall and Project Spark…oh and more Halo, of course.)

Now that that’s out of the way…

I’m not going to move to Vancouver and work on it.

I’m not going to consult on it.

My headspace is in the future now, not the past. I have come to realize that until you give people something new to focus on they will obsess about the past. (good problem to have!)

To those of you who love Gears, I love you as well, and I appreciate your support through the years. The fandom, the cosplay, the tattoos, it all means more than any amount of money could ever mean.

These recent events have steeled my resolve to make something entirely new.

Time for new cosplay, new tattoos, new fandom.

Fingers crossed there will be news soon.

Stay tuned.

Love,

Clifford

It better not be Halo 5. We all ready know about that. Gears 4? It'll likely be an exclusive of some sort.

Didn't give gears a chance on 360, but I will be purchasing this game day one.
