Gears is as first party as MGS4 is first party.

That's pretty much nowhere near the case.  Gears was 100% funded, promoted and published by Microsoft.  They don't own the IP (somewhat shockingly, as that tends to be what happens when one funds, promotes and publishes a game), by they were involved in pretty much every step of the game's creation and even had some of their own R&D staff on it.
