Now the tones will change completely among the fans of both consoles. Sony fans will not care about the franchise, and Xbox fans who used to say that this franchise was dead, will cheer and party again.

okay, i'll bite.   Sony fan.

 

Was gears a good franchise?  yep, i've got no problem saying that.  i placed the 1st one, it was fun.

...but now that gears has moved to MS/Black tusk it means that whatever epic is working on isn't gears.  for playstation fans this is great news as a new IP is better than jumping in on the 5th entry of an established franchise.  so i'm pretty cool with this.  Good for MS,.. but also good for PS.

They're still working on Fortnite and Unreal Engine 4. So yes, good for everyone.
