RUMOR: Gears of War on PS4?!

That would be a huge blow to Microsoft if that was true. Gears of War was why I bought a 360 way back in the day in the first place.
 
Gears of War should be laid to rest next-gen in a large enough coffin to house Dom and company's steroid-filled, testosterone-fueled Gorilla bodies.

Unless it's a complete rehaul of the entire series, do not care anymore. Franchise wore itself thin, partially because of it's own pillars and consistently lackluster multiplayer, and partially because of the sheer amount of games taking from the series.

Epic needs to go new IP again for it's next AAA game.

Also lol @ that being from the floor. So fake.
 
GoW1 was quite a ride, one of the best campaign modes I've played so far. I would buy a remastered collection just for that game ...and the horde mode from GoW2.
 
Can't be on the show floor because other people would of reported it. Gears is something Sony would not keep a secret at E3.
 
And that sony logo is from like PSone.

Though if sony can get it exclusive it would be HUGE. All those 360 fans would have even more reason to move to Ps4

Yeah, I imagine if it were true the announcement would have closed the Sony conference.
 
I doubt it'll happen. Epic has full ownership over Gears, to be sure, but I don't see it happening.

Do they think that since Gears is in decline on Microsoft consoles, Sony gamers would be more likely to embrace a remake since they've never played it before?

Then again, Epic has been saying they are committed to the PS4, so maybe they are making SOMETHING for Sony. It definitely does benefit Epic to show other developers how well UE4 performs on PS4...but would they do it with Gears? I just don't know.
 
It has to be fake. The description at the bottom are legal jargons that just can't be misspelled.

Capcpom managed to misspell Revelations and I've spotted various errors on the back of game boxes in my time so I'm not terribly surprised.

Probably still fake though
 
To be fair, after Capcpom typoes aren't inherently enough to rule something like that as being fake.

But I doubt it anyway, this would've been yet another damning strike again Microsoft to use at E3, yet it was left unmentioned.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if it's on PS4 but seriously if it was shown then the news should have broken a lot earlier.
 
i guess you guys have a point about typos happening before.

but i think this is something they would announce at the press conference if true...as another one of those middle fingers to MS even if they didnt have any footage ready
 
I read the thread title as God of War and was like, "No shit...."

This is definitely fake, although would be cool to see.

Well it may have been good then but its been a completely mediocre franchise now. I can't see some of myself or fellow Playstation fans going crazy over this rumor but if this is true its clear what Sony intends to do with this, which is please the 360 userbase and capture alot of gamers from the 360 moving into next-gen.

On the community boards there has been an onslaught of new accounts and new members introducing themselves as people looking forward to PS4 but bought a 360 last gen.

Personally, besides those not caught up with brand loyalty, this only infuriates hardcore fanboys with Bungie and Epic moving multiplat. Atleast its not exclusive like Insomniac or Respawn.

Personally I would prefer most if not all third parties going multiplat, but I expect more moneyhatting from Microsoft with timed exclusives.

I'd prefer if it was a new multiplat IP. Gears is definitely not the way to go. It already seems to suffer fatigue like God of War. How ironic that both GoW seem knocked out.

And as mentioned, the photo was supposedly taken on the show floor, but it's highly unlikely that something this big would go unnoticed for so long (relatively speaking).
 
A very plausible mistake. Who the heck reads this text if not on a situation like this?

But that orange Sony logo. Isn't it like very old?

No, it's not a plausible mistake. If you had any idea what went into the process of getting those exact words in that exact order onto the screen you wouldn't have typed that.
 
I was done after 2. So meh. Gears 3 was great but it still wasn't as fun as 1. And no one asked for Judgement (so soon, at least)
