Triple Pack? What a crap name

Great name!

I could swear this thread is a duplicate, but after I locked it I couldn't find the original, just the rumour thread from before. If it is a duplicate, someone post the original so I can re-lock it.

yeah I didn't see it anywhere either.

Anyway really odd choice of name.

So what are they gonna call the inevitable GoW1+GoW2+GoW3 pack?

UraMallas · Jan 18, 2011

I guess it's more accurate than trilogy. "Gears of War Collection" would've done fine.

Triology.

gow ultimate trilogy edition?

Gears of War MANage à trois.

Yeah! No Gears 3 means this doesn't count as a triple pack. What a rip!

LiK · Jan 18, 2011

Including the DLC makes it a triple pack? Then ME2 for PS3 should be Quintology pack!

Z_Y · Jan 18, 2011

I hate that the total Gamescore available is a bullet point.

I hate that I'm worried that the 3K gamerpoints available differ from those available in the original editions and DLC. Deep down, I know it isn't. But if MS ever wanted to be truly evil...

Chittagong · Jan 18, 2011

Triple pack for PS Triple.

Makes sense.

Frankfurt · Jan 18, 2011

WTF. Why isn't the Gears 1 DLC included in this? They even had it on disc on the Gears 1 re-release...

jkanownik · Jan 18, 2011

The Halo triple pack was the exact same thing. Two full games and a map pack.

Keyser Soze · Jan 18, 2011

It's all about The Game

Really? Really?! I'll laugh if this is a box bulletpoint

Ugh, I never finished GoW2 after how many times it crashed on me in campaign.
But 30$? might have to go back to it

GameStop: Gears Of War Ultimate (360) In February For $29.99

great name, by the way, I love that a cut mission from Gears 2 counts as one third of the triple pack

I don't see why anyone should be surprised if it is a bulletpoint. There is a demonstrated market for people that care about gamerscore. You could go as far as to say that whoever was designing the box art wouldn't be doing their job correctly if they didn't put that on there.

Imagine how hard it must be to get Seriously in Gears 1 (10k kills in Ranked). Fewer players and the ones on these days are probably super dedicated.
