Question is was this master collection needed?

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

If it happens, I think it might be a shadowdrop during Xbox showcase in June if Gears 6 are announced.

Question is was this master collection needed?

Yes. Especially if comes to PC.

 

[Duchess]

Might pick this up on PS5.

 

[Sushi_Combo]

Looking forward to the Ps5 release.

 

[Tarnpanzer]

Hopefully this will come to PC too.

 

[PendekarRajawali]

Gears Of War was such a HD-era defining game.

Xbox 360 is Gears and Halo 3, such good times.

The last time an actual generational jump was achieved tbh.

This.
The golden era of Xbox.

 

[SportsFan581]

This information was circulated on Twitter by user Idle Sloth following a captured clip from The Infinite Podcast, during an episode which also saw claims surface that 343 Industries has had a hand working on the Indiana Jones game.

I'm not sure how I should feel about that tidbit.

This is great news. Assuming that GoW 6 will be coming along, this is probably the perfect way to reinvigorate the player base of the series.

As long as 343 Shitdustries isn’t making creative decision regarding the campaign it should be fine.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

I remember a college friend and I watched the trailers for Gears of War 1 and thought it wasn't going to get any better than that. Absolutely amazing looking game and the last time I truly thought graphics were a generational leap ahead of the previous generation. There was no fucking way that level of detail could have been achieved on OG Xbox.

If multiplayer is included then I'll grab these I imagine. They're great games.

 

[RAIDEN1]

So as someone who always skipped Gears, probably watched the video walkthroughs of the early games over the years, what would be the best entry to check to see what the fuss is about?

I started at the 3, but I would also suggest the ultimate.

Gears 3 give you a really short summary about how things happen and already put you in action.

 

[Assaulty]

Would love for the collection to become available on pc so I can play through the original trilogy on my steam deck

 

[T-Cake]

Not sure why people are worried, Microsoft will not release anything for Xbox-only at this point.

 

[Fess]

UE5? Oh my. If anyone can do UE5 right it’s The Coalition. Trying and failing to temper my expectations here. This could be awesome! …IF they haven’t broken something or tweaked any designs or removed any environment damage etc…

 

[Shut0wen]

I dont get this collection when you can literally play gow2 and gow3 through BC, both games hold up, id get if the multiplayer is all interconnected, gow3 gameplay with the gow1 and 2 maps but fuck them if they bring back the noobie sawed off shotgun

 

[MikeM]

Be cool if they launched it with a special console. The Gears Xbox One S is my favourite special edition console. I’d buy another Xbox if they do it.

 

[Portugeezer]

Can't wait to enjoy this on my PS Quintuple.

In the rumours of PS/Switch ports a Gears collection was something I predicted.

The games are recreated in UE5, this should be way more than a BC fps boost or hires bump remaster.
Note: should!
Keep expectations somewhat grounded.
I’m thinking it’s The Coalition trying to learn UE5 with a game that ”doesn’t matter” as much as Gears 6.

think of the millions of Ps5 players who will benefit from this release

 

[Celcius]

Day one if true, but why not announce this? Do they plan to do a stealth release?

 

[ManaByte]

PS version day 1

Might pick this up on PS5.

[REDRZA MWS]

If this comes to PS5 and PC this is a nice collection from MS. Day 1 PS5.

 

[violence]

PC version? Less reason to have my Series S

 

[onQ123]

All the games are already playable on the console and look awesome. But fuck it. I’m down for this. I love the Gears series.

Maybe it's for the consoles that it's not already playable on .

 

[Senua]

All the port begs

 

[fatmarco]

If for whatever reason they're actually bothering to make this, then they need to remove those awful PC version levels/the extra Act from Gears of War 1 Ultimate, or at least make them an optional toggle.

That "extra" Act completely ruins the original games' flow for needless padding right when the story is building up for its big climax. It lasts way too long and it also has that awful Brumak boss fight.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Keep multiplayer

Will do better on PlayStation than sea of thieves.

 

[WhereIzJP]

Is this really rumor to go to PS5?

 

[Kings Field]

Spent many 12 hour gaming sessions on Gears 1 and 2 doing game battles ladder matches with the bros. My favorite MP game series of all time before Judgement.

 

[Skifi28]

Is this really rumor to go to PS5?

No, but it's always fun seeing a few green rats squirm. The timing of this rumour is impeccable, the comedy just writes itself.

 

[adamsapple]

The topic title needs "INSIDER" CLAIMS on it.

 

[Badlucktroll]

Also, a Killzone trilogy, a Resistance trilogy, and MGS 4 will take the edge off a bunch of shit not being backwards compatible wherever

 

[Crew511A]

No, but it's always fun seeing a few green rats squirm. The timing of this rumour is impeccable, the comedy just writes itself.

Hey now, I still have PTSD from watching Sega go third party. Still, if releasing Halo MCC and Gears on other consoles increased the player base, I wouldn't be opposed to it.

Our PS5 only brethren are thirsty AF

 

[SportsFan581]

It's 2024, it's all about the console plates and wraps now.

 

[Mr Reasonable]

This pointed PS5 port begging is so cringy.

 

[analog_future]

One of the most consistent franchises out there. Not a bad entry (other than maybe Judgment).

I'd rank them as such:

1. Gears of War 2
2. Gears 5: Hivebusters
3. Gears of War 3
4. Gears 5
5. Gears of War 4
6. Gears of War
7. Gears of War: Judgment

 

[thismeinteil]

You create your own character in Fable. The trailer character was meant to be a joke. Those who have played Fable understood that.

 

[HeWhoWalks]

Day 1 purchase, no questions!

One and done!

 

[Reaseru]

Hope they fully remake gears 2 (like gears 1) and release it together with the remastered gears collection. Or a gear collection with visual upgrades and enhancements across all games.

 

[thismeinteil]

Our PS5 only brethren are thirsty AF

Nah, we just see where things are headed.

I'm against every type of port begging, so IDK why Playstation fanboys are doing this while was a time when Nintendo fanboys got really annoying in this regards.

4

fucking trash 5.

Imo the trilogy got better with each game. It's one of my fav trilogies ever, if not most fav. How can any gears fan say anything positive about trash that is 5, I have no idea.
At least we agree - Judgement is the worst

2 has a better campaign than 3 but overall 3 is definitely the best so…

Yeah, i can agree with this list

Gears 4 above 1 is practically a war crime.

 

[ultrazilla]

I mean, these games already looked incredible with earlier iterations of the Unreal Engine. Remaking all of them in Unreal Engine 5 should be a tour de force of
graphics and special effects goodness. Can't wait!

Not gunna lie gow1 remake was poor af, graphics werent that impressive and the only addition they added was tweaked damages for weapons and the ability roll top left, right, bottom left and bottom right and the shit pc dlc

 

[Shut0wen]

I doubt they add gears to ps5 though, maybe bethesda games but big doubts about gears
