Other then that, there's no real reason to delay a game which will sell well anytime during the year unless the game was incomplete, and only then would it be delayed about a couple of months before, not half a year. |
In addition to what CGI said Gears is also the more well known franchise and gets more mainstream media coverage due to its heavily publicized launch and "questionably violent" content. Launching it near Uncharted would only benefit Uncharted as these media outlets would mention Uncharted as Gears' closest competition, giving it free advertising.
