A playable Gears beta should be the Black Tusk one, seeing as no one would play a beta for a collection.
Lol OK

Probably a collection. I assume it's way too early for there to be a beta of the new game.
thx
maybe is the case to open a new thread for this rumor?
No reason for a new thread on it. No information about it.

I don't think I can post threads, and I dont want to do it anyway. If this gets any attention my friend knows my GT amd will know it came from me.

I am glad they are doing a beta. They definitely should have been doing this in past iterations.
I doubt any publisher even knows 100% of what they're bringing to E3 until like the week before E3, ha. I've heard a couple of things that I'm still trying to corroborate (because as a general rule I don't feel comfortable posting scoops unless I've got at least two independent sources) but I'm not a big fan of secrets and teases. If I know something, I usually try to get it on Kotaku.

Are you serious? I wasn't grasping at straws.

It's great that Black Ops 3 and Gears are having betas.

A Call of Duty beta?
It's been years since we got one of those.

Ghosts could have been so much better if they had a beta.
I thought Spencer was saying there wasn't going to be a Marcus Fenix collection. Was he lying, or twisting his worlds to include Judgement?
Or he was denying a Gears of War: Marcus Fenix Collection because it'll be called Gears of War Trilogy Remastered Edition

Spencer responded to an XBL msg saying he couldn't share information on it.
Rod Fergusson tweeted that there was no collection.

With COD AW the pre-order bonus was the "Day 0 Edition." Is this "Day -1 Edition"?
What's so off about a Friday release?

Next-gen only, Friday release and a Beta?
Fuck me, I think I'm in for COD2K15 boys and girls!

So it's Gears of War 1 remastered and not a collection? Hmm

Gears stuff seems to originate from reddit.

I was fit to write it off as bullshit but Schreier's comment gives me a little bit of pause.

It's too close to Battlefront for me to buy it but I'll preorder to play the beta and cancel later.
Nintendo & Sony have been using Friday to release games for a while now. No reason Activision can't follow suit with CoD.
I have seen three different photos of it. Only reason we haven't posted about it is that we don't know what it is yet. "Here's a picture of a Gears of War logo" doesn't offer much value to people.

Whoa... a beta for Black Ops III? I might just have to drop $5 on a pre-order to check that out.
Day -3 Edition
Anyway, a beta has me excited. The Black Ops games are so damn good. Cover reminds me of getting diamond pistols in Blops 2.

True, but big games do come out on Fridays every once and awhile.
Skyrim comes to mind( came out 11/11/11, a friday)
Also nintendo releases games on sundays a lot, but I think thats more their thing
Would be awesome to see a Friday release for a COD!

You mean this is real and not the fake screen shots like the gears redux
It's in the E3 predictions thread and the MS financials thread I think.
If it's just GOW1, then that's a bit disappointing.
Nintendo are weird, as for Sony only The Order was a Friday unless I'm missing something? Bloodborne went back to a Tuesday release... but you do raise a good point. I still don't see it being released on a Friday though..

I'm not so sure this is cross gen
This is becoming less and less true. The music industry just moved CD releases officially to Fridays. Netflix has released a majority of their new shows on Fridays. I expect the game industry to quickly follow (and as someone else has already pointed out, Sony and Nintendo release their first party stuff on Fridays.)
It makes complete sense for two reasons: A) people get paid on Fridays (in most cases) so no better time that to release something than on a day when people get paid. B) big games like CoD releasing on a Friday get people even more excited to be able to get the game and play all weekend. I would be shocked if games releases on a Friday didn't see bigger first week sales thank those releasing on a Tuesday.

They moved to Fridays a few years ago. I believe they did this (and correct me if I am wrong) because games in Japan are usually released on Fridays, so it makes it easier to do Worldwide releases for games like Pokemon (when they actually do them...)
