Nobody knows excactly how much Gears is worth now, but it is estimated to be over a billion. With Gears being funded and pushed by Microsoft fully it will more than likely be over 2 billion easily. Almost a tenth of what Sony is worth as a company which is amazing if you think about it. |
The revenue made by Gears of War is something below 2 Billions, a Franchise is not meassured by the revenue. A franchise is meassured by how much profit they will be able to make in the following years.
Dragon Quest + Final Fantasy sold 175-180 Millions of units and even so Square Enix is worth 1-1.5 Billions If I can remember well.
