  2. "We were going to let Gears sit on the shelf for a decade or more," says Epic

    Damn you Microsoft! I would have rather had Black Tusk working on a new IP, than Gears. Good news for those of you that are into the Gears franchise, who knows Black Tusk's version may get me hooked.

    I love GoW, but the story came to an end with 3. I'd like to see something new and fresh instead.

    Same here.

    To be honest I've never been the biggest Gears of War fan, enjoyed the campaigns/co-op and no doubt this will be exciting news for the fans but I hope we get something new and fresh.

  7. I've enjoyed them all in coop for the most part. Judgement was the weakest, felt like a bunch of side-missions cobbled together, but in coop even a bad/mediocre game can be fun.

    Never really been a fan of the multiplayer.

    To me the MP was just ...

    Game starts, everyone runs to the same place, fight it out ...

    Then repeat ...

    Co-op campaign and horde mode was brilliant though.

    *sigh* here I was wishing Microsoft would revive old (or make new) franchises from the Original Xbox and it's Gears of War.

    Conker for Xbox One please...

    The MP was brilliant if you played as a team, co-op campaigns were always good, huge fan here, read all the books, collected all the comics, but not overly excited about this unless they take it in another direction, Pendulum Wars era maybe but no more
    locusts please!

    Microsoft have bought the entire franchise, including the old games. I can see a next gen remake of the original Gears game in the not to distant future, much like what happened when Halo moved to 343 Industries...Something to get the new team's juices flowing,
    so to speak.

    Does this mean that the game Black Tusk was working on is now cancelled and they'll only be doing Gears?
