Game Informer Tease: New Gears of War.

[QUOTE="khoofia_pika"][QUOTE="-Patrick_92-"]There has been 3 Uncharted games for PS3, and 1 for Vita...that's not going overboard. ND is even making another new IP instead of cashing in on Uncharted 4.Animal-Mother

[QUOTE="-Patrick_92-"][QUOTE="khoofia_pika"] 4 Uncharted games in 6 years is not going overboard and 4 Gears games in 7 years is? Seriously? 4 games in 6 years is WAY overboard. And it doesn't matter that one of those games was on a handheld, the franchise still had 4 instalments in just 6 years. Face it, Sony is milking all its franchises. khoofia_pika

And Sony is letting ND do a new IP towards the end of the PS3's life cycle. Sony does milk there franchises, but no where near the level that MS has been doing.

[QUOTE="RulerofGondor"][QUOTE="parkurtommo"][QUOTE="RulerofGondor"]Let's look at the hypocrisy, though. Sony announces a new Killzone, a new God of War, a new Resistance, a new Uncharted. Cows everywhere: Yay Sony, we love you! Microsoft announces a new Halo, a new Forza, a new Fable, a new Gears. Cows everywhere: lol rehash. Hypocrites.mems_1224

[QUOTE="charizard1605"]Xbox 360 isn't maxed out, says Epic

Bioware: PS3 is Maxed Out

So you want to believe developers, hm?

charizard1605

not taking sides here but:lol: @ using Bioware as a refrence for saying what the maximum capabilities of PS3 are. haha is that seriously your source of choice of backup in this argument?

Excuse me but what game did Bioware produce that has ever been praised people in the videogame as the best technical graphics on consoles? Which would have you believe they are a valid source to make such an evaluation?

Honestly, any development group and only speak from their own talent and experience. Nothing they say is a unquestionable fact in refrence to what someone else could do.

The only thing we can do is look at what they actually produce and look at comparsons of what's alredy on the market to make that determnation.

good news for gears fans. Unfortunately for the dev unless this is for 360 i woun't be getting it. This was my first ad last gen for M$ consoles, and don't feel like getting a nextbox for 3 games series next gen next gen, especailly not when I dislike halo and forza.

[QUOTE="khoofia_pika"][QUOTE="-Patrick_92-"]Glad you can enjoy another Gears game buddy :) but MS is milking their only 4 big titles, and that's all you'll get unless you like Kinect.-Patrick_92-

Microsoft has to be the most boring publisher ever when it comes to retail, all they do is churn out the same 3 or 4 titles.FIipMode

[QUOTE="khoofia_pika"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] See thats not what bothers me. Instead of possibly coercing epic into make a new better IP. They announce gears almost a year after the third one released. I just think it's better to wait it out and see where it goes. I mean do these big devs like cliffy? Or Ken levine ever get tired of working on the same property? I nejoy media black outs for a year or so. Not knowing what the dev may come up next.Animal-Mother

[QUOTE="mems_1224"][QUOTE="RulerofGondor"]Well I'd say a trilogy is acceptable (without counting portable games), once there is a fourth that's when the real milking starts.olart4618

end ofdiscussion

[QUOTE="olart4618"]

[QUOTE="mems_1224"] Why would you not count the portable games? They count every bit as much. So far, there have been four Killzone games, and a fith one is incoming, five God of War games with a sixth one incoming, four Resistance games, and a fifth one incoming, and four Uncharted games. There have only been three Gears of War games, on the other hand, with a fourth one announced. How is this any worse milked than any Sony franchise? Or is milking permissible when you do it to eight franchises and not four?Bread_or_Decide

[QUOTE="RulerofGondor"][QUOTE="ShadowMoses900"]

Those are all just rumors. But if PS4 does launch first it will put Sony ahead of MS and they will get the most support early on, leading them to having a bigger install base similar to what 360 did by launching early.

Only thing though is Sony would have to price the PS4 smart and make it have BC with PS3. Which would be easy and not increase cost at all as Blu Ray to Blu Ray BC is simple. It's the same exact format.

Sony would have to have strong launch games to do it, like Uncharted 4, Killzone 4, LBP 3 ect..

ShadowMoses900

You know this? How? Do you have a time machine?

And similar format is easy, architecture isn't that big of a deal. Wii is fully BC with GC even though the Wii has different architecture (it has to for Motion Control). It's just more difficult to go from DVD to Blu Ray formats for games, it is expensive to do that. Which is partly why PS3 launch price cost so much.

Blu Ray to Blu Ray format would be easy and have virtually no cost attached to it.

you dont know why are you talking about, the format dosent matter, thearchitecture is a big deal, is everything talking about BC.

[QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"] You named FOUR Sony IP's with many sequels. lol The problem is that Gears and Halo are all they got. THAT'S the problem. JohnnyCageMK

[QUOTE="-Patrick_92-"][QUOTE="khoofia_pika"] I can actually enjoy all games, I have all three consoles :P My point is, while I agree Microsoft is milking their franchises, and I often bash on them for doing so, they're handling Gears pretty well. Also, Sony is milking its franchises WAY more than is advisable. khoofia_pika

Lets take a look at the big 4 for MS this gen:

Halo 3, Halo Wars, Halo ODST, Halo Reach, Halo Anniversary, Halo 4 (and they announced that Halo 4 is a start of a trilogy)

Forza 2, 3, 4, and Horizons

Gears 1, 2, 3, and now this title (4 games in one gen isn't that bad, but I feel like it's just too soon for another Gears)

Fable 2, 3, Heroes, Journey.

That's a lot of milk, all on one console. Sony does it too, but MS is worse in my opinion.

And they are going to do the same thing with Kinect, I would not be surprised if they announce Dance Central 3 at E3.

[QUOTE="JohnnyCageMK"][QUOTE="FIipMode"]Yup, if they had big new ips in between churning out the same 4 franchises every year there would be less people complaining, but this is ALL they have, it's sad.Bread_or_Decide

I totally saw this coming. Not only did I know Microsoft wouldn't let 2013 go without at least one big title, but a prequel seemed most likely.

I am very excited for this.

Considering Max Payne 3 really perfected third person shooting, I am curious to see if Epic will learn anything from that game.

If they balance the guns in versus then this new Gears could be amazing. Unfortunately, the totally busted balancing of the guns in Gears 3 totally kept me from enjoying versus mode....

It's pathetic that Sony has a lot of franchises and still milks all of them rather than spreading them out. Microsoft does that because they dont have any franchises. Sony has a choice.

Another one? This HaloGearsForza thing is bordering on self-parody at this point.

Slashkice

lems say that PS3 owners are hypocrites when we clearly have more than 4 big franchises. so what if we have trilogies? at least we don't have trilogies of the same 4 franchises for 7 years now (and counting).

lems fail to understand the concept of exclusive diversity. since for them diversity = multiplats. pathetic.

[QUOTE="khoofia_pika"] - 7 Ratchet and Clank Games (ToD, Q4B, ACiT, A4O, Secret Agent Clank, SIze Matters and another PSN one coming up) - 4 God of War Games (God of War 3, GoS, COO and Ascension) - 4 Uncharted Games (1, 2, 3, Golden Abyss) - 3 Killzone games (2, 3, Liberation) - 4 Resistance Games (1, 2, 3, Retribution) - 3 LittleBigPlanet Games (1, 2, PSP) That's a LOT of milkage, When you consider the fact that Sony has WAY more franchises than MS, that's even more pathetic. khoofia_pika

Oh and Insomniac is now 3rd party, so the next entry isn't Sony milking the franchise... but the previous games was Sony milking the franchise :lol:

Possibly milkage? idk but After Gears 3 there should be a resting point. Hopefully this is just add on content because if this is a full game then wtf.

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"][QUOTE="khoofia_pika"] Microsoft can't just tell Epic what to do, Epic is an independent developer. They develop the games they want to, not what MS wants. As far as the new IPs thingie is concerned, Microsoft has got Rare working on new one shooter IP and one action adventure IP, Lionhead on an MMO-like IP and three new IPs at three other studios, all for the Xbox 720. khoofia_pika

uh idk about that...that is a grey area.
