this somewhat states that epic is working on a new gears game dont you guys think? if he wanted to be remembered for something else and epic were working on a new IP then he wouldnt have had to leave right?
also cliify b and David Jaffe working together would be realllllyyyyy interesting !! |
Without a doubt. There is something going on internally at EPIC and i think it has something to do with MSFT. I hope they leave Gears alone though because I really dont see how they could make the story go any farther without screwing it up. Cliff planned it to be a trilogy which is why it ended the way it did.

i didnt play gears though i honestly would love to, but my point it i didnt know how it ended so i cant say. but as for leaving gears alone, i really doubt it. dont want to start shit but MS is known to milk their franchises, just look at forza and halo (note this has nothing to do with quality but has to do with release schedule's) and some franchises that are supposed to be triologies end up having a lot more sequals, just look at mass effect, ME3 hasnt been on the market for a year and EA are already talking about a new one, wasnt it just supposed to be triology? my point is big companies dont care about the story or the game, they will just keep pushing them out until it stops selling, sadly. it would be a shame if that happened to gears, it should be what it creators want it to be, not what some bussines men say
also if MS would buy gears that would hurt the industery on so many levels, i really hope they dont

I know they milk their franchises. All publisers are doing this now it seems. Ubisoft - assassins creed, Activision - Call of Duty EA - Battlefield Sony- God of War Nintendo -Mario MSFT - Halo ........And this list goes on and on with every publisher unfortunately.
MSFT already owns Gears of War and they could pass it on to a new studio if they want. What would be a problem for the industry is if MSFT buys EPIC. EPIC is huge with the Unreal Engine so that is kind of scary if they acquire them. I dont think they would make the Unreal Engine exclusive though. Im all up for MSFT buying new studioes but EPIC is too big in my opinion for anybody to own. That would be like buying Bethesda.
EDIT: You dont have to worry about argueing with me. Im not someone who will defend someone because of what company they are. I just want people to tell the truth or be accurate about what they say and you pointed something out accurately

ohh shit i ment if MS buy epic not gears!! im gonna edit my post
and its not about epic, its about unreal like you said, i doubt MS wouldnt do anything to how unreal is being handled, i think they would either make it exclusive or make it really or too expensive to develop on competing consoles. it would hurt too many studio's and sadly cripple the development of one of the best engines in the indusrty, it would harm the industery so much.
and i dont need to worry about argueing with you, you're one of the most sensable people on this site and you have a brad pit fight club avatar, your avatar makes you too awesome to argue with. its just other people on this site are willing to argue over anything, just look at the 8th of december numbers thread

Yeah it really would screw up the industry. One reason it is so good too is because it is cheap so about any company can use it because it keeps costs down while maintaining a good look. Hopefully the new Unreal Engine will be cheap too. I dont know if the Cryengie or Frostbite engine is cost effecient but they look nice too.
The first rule is we do not talk about.....lol
