Pretty much. Just seeing sarah Conner run around in Horde mode makes it a perfect lock for a terminator gameTerminator using Gears mechanics would be pretty damn sweet.
They could get a trilogy out of it, span it across a few years with the final game set partly in the future with the rest going back in time.
I feel like you're looking for a fight for no reason. Nobody needs to damage control Gears. Most people know if they want to play it. Most people know if they don't. It's still good ole Gears. Predicting reviews for an established franchise isn't damage controlling. It's just something people like to talk about.
Speaking of Xbox Game Studios, how would you rank them right now?
I'm not including The Initiative, Global Publishing, or Age of Empires because we either haven't seen anything from them or they're not a traditional studio. I'm ranking these on a number of factors, such as previous projects, future potential, and likelihood that I'll play their projects going forward. Really curious how other people would stack them up.
For me:
12) Compulsion Games
11) Undead Labs
10) inXile Entertainment
9) Double Fine Productions
8) Turn 10
7) Ninja Theory
6) Rare
5) Obsidian Entertainment
4) 343 Industries
3) Mojang
2) The Coalition
1) Playground Games
I played Gears 5 multi for over 10 hours already, so yeah. I know it is quality content.
When you start complaining about reviewers or saying nonsense it looks like damage control instead of just talking about review scores.
... And that's how the "man, X019 was such a disappointment" comments were born.

(to be fair, I guess there is a slight chance for Halo Infinite multiplayer, but I definitely wouldn't go as far as expecting it)
What type of game do we think the Initiative is developing? Have there been any rumors I've missed?
That's a good point. I assume they are at least in pre-production stage for a game/games.This may sound like a dumb question, but do we even know that they've started work on a game? I know they've been building a team and are likely throwing ideas around, but I haven't seem any confirmation of a chosen project.
My hope is nothing before the announcement of the next Xbox. I think their E3 was perfect about this (not announcing anything too early). I really hope Halo Infinite will be the only cross-gen game from Microsoft.Would kinda hope for Rares 2nd game if nothing else, just so I can know what the hell it actually is.
They've definitely started work on a project.This may sound like a dumb question, but do we even know that they've started work on a game? I know they've been building a team and are likely throwing ideas around, but I haven't seem any confirmation of a chosen project.
You would think a beta for the game is a near guarantee, so they gotta announce it eventually. And a beta with Ninja playing it on Mixer sounds too good to pass up.... And that's how the "man, X019 was such a disappointment" comments were born.

Now that I'd fucking love, holy shit! Obsidian definitely is a very promising addition to XGS for sure.
Obligatory:
I know that will really annoy Jez lol
I'm hyped, can't wait for more Gears :D
well 343 already said we would see the game again this year. When else but XO19?... And that's how the "man, X019 was such a disappointment" comments were born.

I wonder how long it's going to be. I'm expecting/hoping for somewhere between 10-15 hours.
Yeah this is where I'm at. The gameplay is better than previous Gears. Doesn't take much to figure out how that'll translate to what we've seen in Horde. Between Arcade and Horde, Gears 5 will be my most played game since Halo 5...and I've never been a huge Gears fan until now.
Fair...and I didn't read every comment regarding reviews in this thread. Still doesn't represent everyone. Hoodoo likes to call out the entire community when he sees a post he doesn't like rather than just quote the person.
I am being serious, big Xbox games where the multiplayer component is just as big as the campaign seem to get judged on an easy play through of the campaign, this happened with Halo 5.I seriously hope this is sarcasm.
No.
No game deserves to be +90 just because it has so much content. It also needs to be quality content.
Are you being serious? Why are people already making stupid excuses? Sure there are shitty reviewers, but it is same for every game.
This isn't even remotely close to truth. All of the highest rated games this gen are sequels to old games.
