Gears yes....Epic...No.

The most Epic slip of the tongue ever? (Come on, someone had to say it XD)

Maybe they're waiting until the game launches to announce it? Kind of like Bungie waited until Halo launched to announce their split?

oh...

thats explain why the unreal engine 3 problems with the ps3... it's a secret plan by m$ that why they don't tell everyone epic its first party.

=P

To everyone saying it's because Gears is first-party:

Capcom has made some Zelda games. Has Capcom ever called themselves a Nintendo first-party? I think not.

They said this for a different reason. It may have just been a slip of the tongue, but it's not solely because of the IP.

microsoft is buying EA as well

I heard Microsoft is also buying Sony.

Really?  i heard they were waiting to see if the stock would drop some more first.  like they are doing with Yahoo.  lots of economic problems everywhere so they have to try and save as much money as they can.

offtopic... gearbox i had no idea you were a futurama fan.. i now have more respect for you as a human being .... futurama is all powerful 

on topic, ms could buy them

but right now what to watch is disney looking at ea, and apple sitting with 25 billion in cash looking to go shopping there has been all kinds of speculation as to what they want to buy. from nintendo, to  RIM (research in motion).

Please dont ask me to find the article, But cliffy B was asked if Gears 3 might appear on ps3 and he said that Gears of war is locked down to microsoft.

I have said all along that Microsofts close ties with the pc gaming world this generation would be crucial to microsofts attributes when it comes to defeating sony............... Look at the future pc/360 releases , APB (All Points Bulliten) Huxley, The precursors, Dead island, The protector, White gold: war in paradise and many more

I beleive that microsofts strong ties with the pc world will lead to a microsoft victory, If not this gen then defo next gen.

Half life 2 episode 3 exclusive to 360 and pc , count on it.

Well.... actually, being that I've been in contact with an insider, it seems that Microsoft ALREADY owns Sony and has for quite some time but just haven't found the time to announce it yet.
