I agree with everything in your post except one thing there is no way in in hell Gears would sell the same amount on PS4. That's like Final Fantasy or Metal Gear selling the same amount on 360, as it's seen as more of a Xbox franchise. |
Thats a bad comparison on your part.
FFXIII sold way less on 360 because it was still exclusive to PS3 in Japan, which is a huge territory for FF games.

But the Japanese Xbox install base was so low it still wouldn't have made a difference. Look at Monster Hunter Frontier. Granted it a spin-off, but thats a very popular series in Japan and VGChatz number say it sold only 130k units.
On-topic: Microsoft won't want to lose Gears as its such a major exclusive and EPIC enjoy working with them (apparently). That said, I can't see how they would take the series forward after Gears 3 after the Locust were wiped out. That means the series is restricted to prequels, spin-offs remakes that limit its creative scope given that the canon after said new game is fixed. So personally feel Gears is past its peak.

they can think of sumthin

Gears v Stranded would not be an effective way of taking it forward. I'm yet to be convinced.
