There was already rumors of Halo 5 being August/September but with  Microsoft now saying its coming in Fall it only makes these rumors stronger.

Seem reasonable September...

Good, much prefer the September releases to November.

Won't believe it till it has a confirmed release date!

(But probably)

I remember a time when September was pretty much classed as Halo Month.

Halo 5 in September, Forza in October, Tomb Raider in November? Thats a fucking strong lineup.

And Gears collection.

Pre-E3

I imagine all of the big 3 has some surprises for this holiday at E3.

Ha, what Gears collection!?

In all seriousness, I think a Gears of War collection would be better to fill in the gaps post-Holiday. Theyre gonna need something to combat Uncharted 4 and Zelda in the early Months of 2016 and Gears of War has that marketting pull where it can stand against the big boys.

Gears collection with an invite to the Beta for Gears 4? People will jump on that as much as they did the MCC.

Would be a strong start to the most important part of the year for sales if Halo 5 released around September. MS could then follow up in November with a price cut, and they would be ensured very strong sales in the US.

Does call into question Quantum Breaks chances of making this year though, given it is not in the ad but Gigantic is.

If they do release a Gears Collection i would rather they release it Q1/Q2 2016, they already have the best exclusive line up for 2015 with Halo/RotTR/Forza and possibly more with annoucements @E3.

Better to start of 2016 strong with a Gears Collection and a Gears 4 Beta.
