Million on 09 November 2008
| Squilliam said: Gears is likely to sell 11M+ between two games released within 4 years. They wouldn't risk anything which could potentially damage sales of their darling franchise like spread their resources too thinly and a cross advertising deal with Microsoft for exclusivity is something which definately pays off. |
The bolded is absolute garbage .First you "spreading resources" point is flawed a big project like Gears will likely draw more resources from other areas of epic if needs be. As for a microsoft advertising deal > Multiplatform release = LOL.
@Twestern "Gears 2 didn't go multiplatform because it didn't have a 5 year development cycle and they knew it would sell more than a million on the first day. Gears 3 will likely be the same story."
That doesn't explain why Epic wouldn't make a PS3 version of the game .
