Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft acquired Gears of War rights. Black Tusk to develop the games

Hey, some franchises don't need to continue. Gears was a breakout, it told its stories and was (for me) THE 7th gen franchise. I don't want M$ to ruin it. Oh well, if it's good I'll buy. If it's not, I'll still have the older games.

Eh.. I just want the next game to be better than Judgement!

This is pretty damn big. Kudos to buying the franchise outright rather than buying exclusivity from Epic.

That said, does this mean Black Tusk have 2 teams or does it mean the other Black Tusk game is canned?

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.

Pretty much haha. We should just wait a while to get enough posts and compare it then with the posts in another thread (I think there was one about Gears coming to PS) and look what the same people said there.

But to be fair, it's not from Epic anymore so that we can expect some changes. If to the worse or better is another question...



Pretty big news xD Love gears and ferguson. I guess Black Tusk going to work on multiple AAA games was true too.

They originally said they were working on multiple AAA games and then later said they were working on 4 games.  

The original AAA game is being hyped as the next big thing, Halo big




       

So what, is Black Tusk going to be working on two games now?



I'm excited it looked like judgement was the last

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

So, Black Tusk now is a two team studio?



This is the reason I bought the Sony console this generation. Sony focuses on creating new IP and they create new studios, Microsoft tend to recycle what is successful in hopes of making a little more money.
