Gears of War Marcus Fenix Collection coming to Xbox One? Phil Spencer retweets

They may want to pretend that Judgment didn't happen. Either that or they plan to add it as DLC at a later date.

Overrun was 10x better than Beast mode, Aftermath was part of Gears 3 story (and good imo but does tie into Judgments story a lot), the story itself was probably the best written of the 3.

Perhaps it will be DLC and all of this is baseless speculation but... I really don't want to pick and choose what they do.

Halo has 4 games in the collection, Gears has 4 games total, just put them all in.

Heard anything about Judgment?
 
I'll buy the Gears Trilogy/Collection, my Xbox One has been gathering dust since November 2013. Besides, I loved Gears 1-3.
 
2015: "Splish splash... Takin' a bath..." in a tub full of so many good games!

Pumped but the year is going to do some damage to my wallet.
 
Hopefully Gears 1 gets added to steam.... Is that too much to ask? :(

Yes. Just like Halo 1/2 aren't on Steam either.
Microsoft is not interested in publishing those games on PC because they're linked to the Xbox brand.

They've put stuff like Rise of Nations because it won't hurt the Xbox One in any way.

I'm not expecting (at all) 1st party stuff to end up on PC, Gears IP, Halo IP will remain Xbox One exclusive. Same goes for Quantum Break (IP owned by MS).

At least, this is what I think.

Exactly what I was about to say.

As for the Gears Collection, bring it on I would love to play through the trilogy again on Xbox One.
 
Man this would be so fucking good! Though I don't know if this would be as clear-cut as The MCC. Would they remake Gears of War 1 with a graphics overhaul? If so, you can assume that the multiplayer would also get an overhaul. Would it ship exactly as it did back then?

At first glance it seems like a good idea because we all fucking loved Gears 1 so much. But it was missing a lot compared to nowadays, chainsaw battles (and chainsaw invulnerability for that matter was annoying) being an obvious example of objectively good additions in the sequels.

I'd actually prefer if they used GoW3's multiplayer engine when recreating GoW1's multiplayer. Take out GoW3 weapons but keep all the good shit and just remake the GoW1 maps and give it a sexy graphics overhaul. If that makes sense to anyone?
 
A lot of the assets in the current UT4 playtest are imported from UT3. So it is definitely possible. I'm not sure how worthwhile it would be though as the scripting language in the editor has been completely replaced.

Theres no point doing a remake Halo CEA/2A style of Gears 1, it still looks great. Not as great as 2 --> 3 --> Judgment but I don't think it would provide any significant upgrade to the game like it does with the two Halo games.

They will hopefully fix stuff like host advantage and smooth out all the other glitches and bugs and then put a unified menu like Halo. It won't be a cut and paste job but I doubt it would take as long as the Halo Collection.
 
As long as the texture pop-in vanishes and if they can work the GI stuff in, even Gears 1 will look great in 1080p and 60fps.

While not as massive as MCC. A Gears collection with all the DLC content from the series, would be pretty massive. Having a similar setup as MCC would help but the amount of maps alone would be worth the collection. Add in all the Horde Mode content and it will sell megabucks. Ready for the Gears 4 reveal.
 
Wondering can you import UE3 assets into UE4?
Would be kinda cool to have all Gears games running in UE4.

Yeah. I'd be disappointed if it were a straight port. The lighting tech is extremely dated for 1 & 2 + shaders, plus it'd be nice if they could update the gameplay systems up to Gears 3 (how characters move into/out of cover, running, dodge rolling etc), and... net code (co-op included). Tons of work though. :/
 
I'll be the crazy person and say I want the Gears of War 2 multiplayer. 1+3 are good, but I spent 3000+ hours in the broken mess of a Gears 2 MP and want to do it again. Possibly minus the broken parts. Maybe Gears 3 multiplayer without all the stupid additional guns would be perfect. 60fps Gears please. Can't wait to get all the achievements again but please fix Seriously, don't want to get almost 15,000 kills before it unlocks this time!

I don't think the fans will accept gameplay changes to the older gears games.
Dedicated servers for all games are must if you ask me.

There are subtle things about how the controls worked that could use updating to make the movement feel less frustrating. Exactly the sort of changes that makes Gears 3 feel different and smoother with movement and cover. Timing & distance from cover, sticking to cover etc.

Not talking about changing gun balance or anything like that. These are just general control issues. It's awful replaying Gears 1/2 after playing 3.
 
Fall is going to be stacked fo X1 if this is added. Halo, forza, quantum break, tomb raider, and this in a 3 month span? Jesus. Hope this is a summer game of true.
 
There's almost no way that this isn't happening sometime in the future. It would be an instant buy for many people (including myself once I get an X1). After Halo MCC, Gears trilogy will be next.
 
Believe.

It's happening. We all know it is. Being able to play every Halo and every Gears of War in 1080p, 60fps is going to be breathtaking.

Hell no! Gears of War 2 multiplayer should be left in a hole to die. If a Collection happens, either allow for each game's multiplayer as it was on Xbox 360, or just have it like Gears of War 3. Gears of War 1 was multiplayer perfection, IMO - but Gears of War 3 came close to matching it.
 
Awwwwwww man.

I'm not trying to get myself hyped up, but to upload Gears 1, 2 and 3 assets like that on the official media site - I can't think of too many other reasons for that.

Whenever that day comes, I most-definitely need to own an Xbox One.

Well, its difficult to know what it means, right now.

MS obviously now own the franchise but 28th October is a random date to be adding the games, with no official title announced (we know its coming but no details etc).

Perhaps they're gearing up for an announcement? Or planning a blog post about it for one reason or another. Perhaps a Gears 360 bundle is coming?

Interesting how Judgment images haven't been uploaded. They better not screw me out of Judgment single player, Aftermath and Overrun, that mode was awesome

Could be, but I doubt that right now. If it was a 360 bundle, there's no reason to throw in Judgment as well too.

Collection + new Gears beta. Why not.

That makes some good sense right there, especially as it's a new team.
