N'Gai Croal: Gears of War 3 Predicted For PS3

Interestingly enough, Michael Pachter brought up an interesting point when he stated that EA didn't drop $300M on BioWare and Pandemic only to let them keep working on Xbox 360 titles. No, Pachter claims that EA very likely intends on bringing Mass Effect onto the PlayStation 3, with either a sequel, the original, or both.

N'Gai Croal then points out Epic, who is very familiar with the PlayStation 3 architecture, and goes on to state "we pretty much know that Gears of War 3 is probably gonna' come out on PS3." Yes, GOW3, and not the sequel; Microsoft holds Epic to a two-game deal, so the first two will likely remain exclusive, but Gears of War is the intellectual property of Epic Games.

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

I think they made it clear that Gears of War is property of Microsoft.

Sure they could make a new game sorta Gears of War type for PS3. But it can't be called Gears of War.

[TANOD]

It is very logical that the 3rd would come to PS3.

since by 2009/10 ps3 would have a worldwide userbase almost 2x as x360.

so why not bring it on to PS3 and attract a bigger global audience

[Anego Montoya FTMFW]

only the first 2 are exclusive.

after that.........

[The Killer]

no one can break the deal, and MS deal was for 2 sequels! the 3rd is up in the air, so there is a possibility to be a ps3 exclusive or 360 exclusive or multiplatforms. i say look forward for gears of war 2 where it MIGHT be the last 360 owners will get from the series.

EDIT:

i dont know y i got disagrees, i only stated a fact!!! do u disagree with facts?? MAAAN 360 fans coming from another planet sorry to say so but that wat i realized.

[JsonHenry]

But we ALL know that Sony fanboys think that GoW is a big joke and so inferior to anything that came out on the PS3 that no PS3 owner would ever consider purchasing such a rot gut game as GoW.

[cervantes99]

I am a loyal PS3 owner and I am a loyal 360 owner and having the luxury of both systems I can most assuredly state that Gears AND Bioshock are some of the BEST games I have played in a long time!

I can also state that Uncharted, Heavenly Sword and UT3 are also FANTASTIC games.

My point is that BOTH systems have great games out and it is a shame that fanboys of one system are incapable of recognizing this.

REAL GAMERS don't flame and b!tch about things they don't have - they find ways to play ALL the best games and enjoy the experience.

I really feel sorry for those that are unable to have both systems, because this years games are INCREDIBLE!

[masterg]

@JsonHenry

What is the matter with you?

I'm a Big PS3 fan, but I have both consoles.
Gears is one of my, if not my favorite game. I simply love it.
But I right now my PS3 is the only one plugged in. Too many games to play to go back to Gears at the moment.

I looking forward to Gears 2. But nothing would please me more than to see number 3 on the PS3. Then we might be able to play it without all the lag problems that was the only thing bad about the first one.

[Mr Marbles]

If GOW continues to do well, MS will do anything it has to in an effort to keep the series 360 exclusive. They will have the option to buy up the 3rd game in the series long before Sony does, and trust me they will. Same goes for Mass Effect. MS can and will buy the entire IP if they have to, not just publishing rights, so just forget all this talk of these games going to PS3, the only way that happens is if Mass Effect II or GOWII flops, then MS will not waste their money. This was MS's plan from the start.

[Mark Rein]

Gears of War will remain exclusive to the Xbox 360!

[The_Engineer]

what PS3 owners have said is that gears of war runs like crap and in some aspects was cutback in scope BECAUSE of the 360 hardware. Learn to tell the difference. I would love to see both this and MAss Effect run better on the PS3 than the slideshow the 360 is putting out right now.

suuuuuure henry we alll know you have played gears online countless times and seen an enemy turn the corner only to jump to an animation of your head popping like a balloon before you could do a thing, that's a slideshow. NOOB

[JsonHenry]

Guys, I was making fun of the fanboys that post on here, not you.

I would be making fun of MS fanboys if all of a sudden Killzone or MGS4 Launched for the 360.

You know who I am talking about. Those guys that can't pull their heads out of their asses long enough to enjoy a good game.

[JsonHenry]

@1.9 -

I don't know what you are talking about. Neither Gears of War (I didn't think the game was all that) or Mass Effect run at a "slideshow" as you say.

And there has yet to be a mutli-plat game that runs better on the PS3. Makes me wish I would have waited to buy one until the devs figure the architecture out.

[marc 1975]

they could call it tears of a hoar

[wantedboys]

firsy ps3 will win the war belive me

[TANOD]

But unlike last 2 terms SONY has met with some turbulence in the 1st year.

However everything pales out against PS3 in 2008.

The biggest game of this generation FF13 would be released in 2008. That game alone will move 1m/2m ps3s in Japan ,NA and Europe each.

same goes to MGS 4 ,GT5 and perhaps WKS

FF13,WKS,GT5,KZ2,RESISTANCE 2, MOTORSTORM 2, MGS 4,LA NOIRE ,WARDEVIL, GETAWAY,8 DAYS ----that list is just too awesome to be countered

[OC_MurphysLaw]

But he says alot of things. What he knows are sales trends and buying trends and that is what his area of expertise really falls into. He is privy to alot...but he also is not. From that interview I felt it was pretty clear that he has zero insight into the actual deals struck regarding the Bioware buy out and Mass Effect. I think he again is doing what he does and putting pure speculation out into the public around the game. Sure its an educated guess that EA would want Mass Effect on mutiple systems...but I would bet big money that MS has that locked up for at least 2 games. Mass Effect 3 might come the way of the PS3..but honestly if they couldnt put out 1 or 2...would it really makes sense for 3 to come out?

And as for N'Gai...he is the biggest Sony Fanboy in the press. So I have zero doubt he would start talkin about Gears of War on the PS3. Again...aint happening anytime soon.

[TANOD]

He is not a fanboy .

He is unbiased and speaks ONLY ABOUT THE IMMINNET OUTCOME in CONSOLE WAR

[Jack T]

N'Gai Croal is a well known Sony fanboy. He is spreading lies in the vain hope more people will buy a PS3 after hearing this. As for Epic, do you really think they would try to piss off the 360 userbase when Gears of War has sold over 4 million copies on the 360 while Unreal Tournament 3 on PS3 has only sold 69,768 and did not break the top 40.

[ravinash]

its only a few 360 fanboys that would get up set...most normal people just want to play games.

[PStriple703]

the 360 has nothin in the following years....

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

Shut up...

The 360 got some good games coming up, and the multiplatforms looks good too. Like Project Origin, Dark Sector, GTA IV, Turok and Left 4 Dead. I can take those games. I can still play them, on my 360. So you can just shut up.

[Chubear]

Gosh, sounds like you're really scared or something XD

[jctoyou]

JACK T i wont dispute your sale figures on unreal 111,i dont know,but they will be low at the moment its only been released in a limited supply to na,we in europe dont get it until the end of march!should you not start adding the sales up then?

[power of Green]

Another fucin crazy guess. lol I'm going to enjoy Laughing at MGS4's gameplay on my 360?.

[Fresh]

It has been said many,many times already.

[TANOD]

just like HEAVY RAIN --exclusive to ps3 because of power advantage.

By the time MGS 4 comes out i think x360 might not even remain in the markets of EU and JAPAN . It might/not remain in NA too

you know about PS3's stellar lineup in 2008 and beyond i gues>>...........

[PS360WII]

tanod. Just to clairfy the developer has said that nothing in MGS4 cannot be done on the 360. So yes the 360 can handle MGS4.

But you are right that it's a PS3 exclusive. They have said that to many times to count now :)

[to407]

I wonder how much this one TANOD guy is being paid by Sony, to warrant this level of extreme over the top fanboyism. It's pretty obvious he's an adherent Sony worshipper. Fanboyism is their creed.

Get a life!

[power of Green]

No wonder PS3 sells in non English speaking countries.

I can hear it now *OMG! PS3 is getting GOW 3 and MAss Effect 1,2 & 3 and Bioshock plus Halo 3* etc etc.

[TANOD]

x360 sells only in USA but for how long ...ps3 sells in UK ,AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, SOUTH AFRICA and all over the world including NA and JAPAN.

Mass what???

no one cares about that game when we have UNCHARTED . Bioshock and halo 3 are irrelevant since ps3 has resistance and unreal tournament 3 with Haze being released in January.

PS3 has everything the x360 has but better even in 2007.

dont even speak about 2008 and onwards since you know the results....

a game that has disappeared from all the EU list and even the NA list by now.

[BIoodmask]

It does seem that N'Gai is a Sony fanboy. I didn't even realize it until now. He was the one who posted the article on "The Flight of the Killer Bees, is MGS on quicksand."

Anything is possible but I would think Microsoft would just pony up the money to either Epic or EA for further exclusives on both Mass Effect and Gears of War. Gears of War is after all a multi-million seller and Mass Effect could be also. Just bc EA and Epic are multiplatform does not mean they still cannot do exclusives for Microsoft.

With the 360 having a very large install base and an extremely high games attach rate. Microsoft has really good bargaining power to obtain 3rd party exclusives.

[HarryEtTubMan]

Shut up HOMO. You dont choose or understnad this buisness... u just hate Sony because they lead this industry and choose formats like Blu Ray. TOO BAD... SOO SAD...* Sniff sniff* They kow what they are talking about. 360 will be dead in just 2-3 yearts wihle the pS3 HAS BRELY BEGUN. You are gonna get raped son

[IntelligentAj]

I' m glad there are so many people in the world that are prescient. It's beautiful...(End sarcasm)

[PS360WII]

come on really is PS3 just going to have every single game under the sun on it? Why not say Mario is going to come out on PS3 tomorrow?

[Xemnas]

Oh boy hear we go agian...

[Myth]

I have Gears for War for the PC and it has soooo much more detail than the 360 version. When I watch the cut sceens, that were taken from the 360, I'm like - That looks like crap. The PC version is soo much better. If they bring this to the PS3 they can match the great graphics that PC can deliver. Cough UT3

[power of Green]

I thought Gears for 360 and PC were a year apart as if UT3 360 version won't match or pass the current version due to better developed methods for making the game plus having more time.

Dam you guys are starting to really reach its back and forth with you guy's trying to claim PS3 as champ with numbers then when that fails you find other ways to get even. lol

EDIT: Not true fanatic... I'v read Mark Rein saying they've made breakthoughs on the engine sence GEOW. lol

[Myth]

More time doesn't help if the system cannot handle it. Cough 360

EDIT: Your missing the point. Sure they can make upgrades to the engine, but if the 360 can't even handle the current one then it doesnt matter.

[aba]

YOUR A DOUCHEBAG...COUGH

See? I can do it too, now STFU.

[Noodlecup]

want a mindless shooter with nice graphics and no storyline? I can't believe I fell for the hype and paid the retail price for this on release day, awful, awful game.

[masterg]

Well that's because you never played the game then.

Gears of War is online. It's a good offline game, but a monster of an online game. And it takes at least 2-3 days before you're even good enough online to get the full value.

It might be one of the shortest games of 2006, but nothing to date has more value for me than gears. Well maybe UT3, but Im still waiting for my import on that one.

[power of Green]

DuDe said Mass Effect "1" could find its way to PS3. You have to throw away this guy's(Patcher) opinion claiming such wild fictions.

Come on ME 1 going to PS3?, the average fanboy knows more about how the industry works.

URT3 for PS3 is probably going to flop! why would Epic downgrade the Blockbuster GOW for PS3 when MSFT will pay the amount of money many times over they would have made on the PS3 platform?.

[BIoodmask]

I do not think it is possible to port Mass Effect to other consoles because Microsoft publishes it. It is possible that it could come to PC, but most likely not until it stops selling well on the 360.

[Damphear]

you speak like the ring of death never happend or the fact you pay for our internet twice.

[Bladestar]

wasn't this guy that predicted the PS3 to win and destroy the xbox 360 in 2007? I will not hold my breath on this one.. specially when it comes to someone that is not better than any of us when it comes to predicting stuff.. this is not about prediction... you see.. we can predict about console sells.. and other stuff... but not about stuff like this... since... is about microsoft owning the right to this game or not... we don't know what kind of deal microsoft made... but it was defined and seal before the first gears was released... so who knows.. it can be up to gears 2... or gears 10...

[Anego Montoya FTMFW]

try to hold your breath.

[masterg]

Was he said was actually than the PS3 would not catch up with 360 sales per month before the end of 2007 or early 2008.

He said the PS3 would dominate 2008 and loose 2007 in total sales.

So right now he is doing pretty good when it comes to predictions.

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

Ok. POG and TANOD, stop your "My console is better then yours." thing, because it´s just...I don´t know, weird maybe, but I´ll go and make some popcorn.

[Relcom]

I'm on my third bag after today

[Meus Renaissance]

If Microsoft own only the first two iterations of the Gears trilogy (assuming it will be a trilogy), then there is no reason to think that Epic wouldn't want to maximise profits on the game by making it multiplatform - and I assure you this game would sell even on a system that doesn't seem to be selling many games lol.

But having said that, Microsoft would probably just buy the exclusive rights to the whole Gears franchise. And that is more likely than them waving that chance away, and consequently seeing Gears of War 3 on the PlayStation 3.

[jctoyou]

what you guys forget is,with the mods of ut111 anyway we will be getting gears,and halo for free!their already working on it.

[Jack T]

N'Gai Croal is a well known Sony fanboy. He is spreading lies in the vain hope more people will buy a PS3 after hearing this. As for Epic, do you really think they would try to piss off the 360 userbase when Gears of War has sold over 4 million copies on the 360 while Unreal Tournament 3 on PS3 has only sold 69,768 and did not break the top 40.

[IntelligentAj]

how long has Gears been out? How long has UT3 been out? How much competition did Gears have? How much does UT3 have? Enough said..

[masterg]

Im sorry but I have to call you dumb if you think they will loose more mad Xboxs users than they will gain PS3 users by doing the game for both.

[Jack T]

Gears of War sold 3 million copies in just 10 weeks. Even if you take an average from that, it is still 300,000 a week. Gears was also the fastest selling game of 2006. What is Unreal famous for? Nothing, 69,768 is quite a step back. Who do you think Epic are going to spend their money and time developing for now?

[IntelligentAj]

Point well taken. I don't think Gears will be on the PS3 at all but you've got to admit that(hypothetically)a game will sell more on 2 consoles than it will 1.

[Boink]

this is just getting dumb...

[Anego Montoya FTMFW]

cause 360 isn`t going to "Finish The Fight" LOL

@below

I was just joking.

his avatar inspired it.

please return to headshots/teabagging.

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

No, it´s getting lame because fanboys like you are so ignorant.
And I´ve finished the fight, thank you.
BTW, no one besides you fellow fanboys finds that funny.

[rukusa]

two game deal with Epic? well, looky-looky... interesting.

[pwnmaster3000]

jack give me proof first cause to many people r liar in this site

[Spike47]

Gow 2 comes out 2009, they're gonna squeeze gow3 in 2010?

If it goes on the ps3 it's gonna go on the 360 too, Ms loves to get headstarts.

So ..........wtf?

[Spike47]

By the way the difference between mgs4 and gow3 exclusivity is that Kojima stated 2 times that MGS4 would be excluive and did not fit on the xbox360, if it did it would suck and have limitated content.

GOW3 is more than possible on the PS3 and I have'nt heard Epic saying anything about it.

[NanoGeekTech]

It make sense for certain companies to do exclusive deals.......But in the long run..MONEY speaks louder than any BS out there....

---If they are enough people out there with a PS3 I really do not see why Bioshock,Mass Effect and GOW coming to PS3 in one way or the other..

---Classic example of Exclusive deals going south: GTA & DMC... I never thought I would ever see a GTA or DMC out side of Sony... But $$$$$$$$ talks and BS start flam wars...

---So to say that neither of this titles coming to PS3 is just as much speculation as my man the analysis speculating that they are coming to the PS3..

---Again the bottom line speaks.......bottom line=$$$$$$$$$$$

[aaquib5]

Since 2008 is too packed for anymore games, we might as well have GoW3 packed in our arsenal for 2009. PS3 is just beginning, and I think the first sign of that was the 400K+ they sold in a month, and a spectacular exclusive by the creators of Gears of War: Unreal Tournament 3.

[Ko_Uraki]

Why not GOW2 for PS3? Because there is a deal with MS?
There isn't any confirmation about it, but it's still possible.
I only wonder why all these analysts are making their predictions about the sequel of a sequel. Maybe because their middle-long term predictions were BS...LOL
For them the PS3 would have destroyed the XBOX 360 for the end of the year.
The point is that by now the sales of the supposed Killer Applications for the PS3 are pretty pathetic:

HS---> BOMB
R&C----> SUPERBOMB
LAIR----> MEGABOMB
Uncharted----> FLOPxBOMB

I can assume that 100k is what Epic/Midway expected from the sales of UTIII in December. Comparing to the "poor" performance of GOW for XBOX 360 (4 millions ww), it's clear that even an idiot would develop GOW3 for PS3. LOL

By now the market says that for a softwarehouse XBOX 360=$$$ and PS3=FLOP. Some idiot can say that things will be different in two years. Maybe in Japan, but not in the USA. And I don't think that GOW3 is a franchise with great appeal among the japanese videogamers.

[ROCCOZILLA]

its just a matter of time when all games for xbox will be on ps3!

[Skerj]

Hahaha they're gonna piss everyone off if they say MGS4 is coming to the 360, please people don't put too much stock into these.

[cervantes99]

I know my PS3 will still be working when Gears 3 arrives, but my 360 most likely will have failed :)

Just had to throw that jab in there ...

[celticlonewolf]

They make the third one on ps3 I mean you would be playing a game that is at the end of the story line with lots ofthings not making sence if your into story as well as game play. I really dont see this happening at all and Im sure the only reason he put this out there is the fact that ms paid for 2 not the 3 and I suppose tech there is a opening there.

[the worst]

Saints Row 2 is on the ps3

[DJ]

assuming that Microsoft doesn't try and nab rights to Part 3 as well. Then again, Sony's been busy the entire year making backdoor deals with publishers and developers (this is why FFXIII, Versus XIII, and MGS4 became confirmed PS3 exclusives), so I wouldn't be surprised if they pay for at least a PS3 version of Gears of War 3.

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

Gears is like Halo, it stays Xbox, but hey you guys been dreaming of our games all year. "dee dee dee" to the one above me ^^^^^

[NanoGeekTech]

$$$$rules the world...Why is or does seem so infinitely impossible that certain exclusive cannot go cross platform..

Anyone remember Sonic the Hedgehog...Hell he on Nintendo...I never thought I will see a day with a sonic game on Nintendo...

--Heck MG4 may go to 360 as a water down version in the future.....

--Certain franchise will never leave there respectable console.. Like Mario/Master Chief/Rachet N Clank...

--Games are getting very very expansive......Its like a major Blockbuster movies...that cost $350 million to make...The studio would like to open the movie in as many theaters as possible to recoup their production and marketing cost..the same will apply to games in this Gen and the future Gen wars...As technology advance so does cost.....

--We live in a world dominated by the dollar...

--Remember cash rules everything around me..................

[gunnerforlife]

i really dont care about gears of war

[pwnmaster3000]

i want mass but not gears i beat gears in about 4 hours and all i can say is that wasted 4 hours of my life time

[Jack T]

I finished Heavenly sword in 3 hours 46 minutes and that includes the 87 minutes of cutscenes. I heard it was short, so I rented it and timed it from start to finish. There is a 4 minute or so margin of error as I had a smoke break at the start of chapter 3 and before the 2nd Bohan fight and didn't time my second break.

The only other game I have ever felt cheated by in terms of length was the first Zone of Enders game. I made the mistake of buying that when it came out. I finished it in about 1 hour 40 minutes. The reason I can be so accurate was because I started playing it straight after watching Murder She Wrote on BBC1.

[DJ]

which is a hard, hard title to win. Even Phil Harrison stated that only the best beta testers on the Ninja Theory team can finish the title at just under 7 hours.

It's obvious you're just bashing a PS3 title for the hell of it; too bad you're, let's see, 600 thousand copies too late?

[fredy]

in 3 and some change. it's a hack n slasher not much thinking involved.

why would ps3 gamers want gears after criticizing it soo much..

[razer]

I'm just waiting for the post that says "All 360 games coming to PS3".. I mean, we are speculating about Gears 3 when 2 isn't even out yet.. This is getting ridiculous.. Like MS would not fight to keep this IP just how Sony fights for MGS or FF.

To take a quote from Sony fans when people continue with the MGS4 rumors..If you want to play these games then buy yourself a 360.

[Staircase]

That would be rather odd if only the 3rd installation came to the PS3. In which case, most of the PS3 owners wouldn't have played the 1st 2.

[solar]

the abbreviation GoW is already taken by God of War. GeoW = Gears of War :P

any who. im gonna get the pc version of Gears for the pc. extra content = thumbs up

[XxRoosterxX]

this is an emergency!!!

Have any you PS3 owners been experiencing problems loading games after the new 2.10 update.

My PS3 will just comes up with the little loading circle in the top left corner of the screen while I'm in the XMB. The PS3 game doesn't even show up as an option under games it just stays there.

PLEASE SOMEONE REPLY

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jinn]

PS3 is greedy for our big 360 titles, they are afraid of trailing the console war

[aaquib5]

You crazy Xbots would do anything to have:

Metal Gear
Haze
Final Fantasy
God of War
Gran Turismo
Uncharted

and hundreds of more that everytime that a single word about MGS4 comes out, you XBOTS are going "W00T ILL BE PLAYING PS3 GAMES!" Well, I've got news for you. 1. Hopefully by 2008 you're console will come back from dreaded repair. 2. Don't expect any of our titles unless you want to be switching discs every 10 minutes(*cough Blue Dragon) 3. The Xbox can't handle most of these games. They were designed for PS3, they're staying on PS3. Go play Gears of War. Oh wait, sorry, I didn't mean to remind you. Oh, I apologize. YOUR XBOX IS STILL IN REPAIR. My bad.

[harpua]

would be nice to see it on the PS3, then maybe the frame rate would have a chance to get above 10.

[Rice]

i actually want Gears of War instead of Mass effect for tbe PS3.

[captainjy]

Hey aaquib5, it's you and the rest of the smart ass Sony-ites that are spinning anything. MS didn't LOSE anyone. It's not like these guys said, "Screw MS, we want out!" The companies have been developing multiplatform games for a long time. Rest assured, MS and Sony will make exclusive agreements with EA for certain titles. Stop your whining. The 360 has already won this round and by the time the PS3 catches up, there will be even better Xbox out.

[iceice123]

Also because Bungie split from Microsoft they're making a Halo for the PS3. Oh and Fable? Yeah also coming to the PS3...

But seriously, I love this. This shows that not only are the lemmings desperate for good games but even Sony themselves envy our games too. Everyone, even Sony wants to jump in.

[aaquib5]

Bungie, Bioware and Bizzare. 3 talented developers all on the PS3 soon. Spin it as much as you want saying we're desperate for your games, but apparently Microsoft is too because they just lost the 3 biggest developers on the platform! @$%^ Halo, I hope Bungie gives us a better IP that doesn't run in 640p.

[DJ]

Here's just a small list:

Bioware - untitled PS3 project was already in the works.
Bizarre - The Club; unknown if Project Gotham will jump.
Silicon Knights - untitled PS3 project.
Irrational Games (of Bioshock fame) - also another PS3 project.

Right now, it's unknown what Bungie's up to. They're independent, but no one knows the terms and agreements they signed with Microsoft in order to keep the "Bungie" company name.

[ps3FTW]

Fanboy much?

[WilliamRLBaker]

bioware not first party.....Bizarre not first party....
lol you like talking out your ass dontcha aaquib?

[kennyfisterbotm]

I love how a year ago every ps3 gamer was saying that gears of war sucked, and now their jumping with joy with this RUMOR.

I think that people are stupid!!!!!!!!!

Thats all i have to say on this site.

[Mark Rein]

Gears of War will remain exclusive to the Xbox 360

[Bazookajoe_83]

"Sony themselves envy our games too"

Youre games? Are you in a cult or something, that was maybe the biggest fanboy statement ive seen for a long time...

[Bazookajoe_83]

If it is, i might get it for ps3. If it´s not, i get it on the box...

[captainjy]

I am convinced that all 150 PSFree owners live here. Gears will never be on the other console, ever. MS is too smart and too rich to let this happen. It's not our fault that the only AAA title on that other console is MGS and even that is questionable. Dear PSFree fans, please stop wanting what you can't have. Just because Sony can't get their act together, don't take it out on us happy 360 fans.

[QuackPot]

...has GeoW,

... started playing it

...was quickly disappointed

...especially how dark it was

...then got bored

...and got sick of the noise from his xbox 360

...and didn't finished the game.

Haven't touched it for 2 months and likewise Halo 3....I only play SP.

But am enjoying R6 Vegas(xbox360) that i'm borrowing.

And anyhows, the Ps3 has UT3 to keep us busy until the beast - KZ2 - arrives. XD

[fredy]

".was quickly disappointed

...especially how dark it was "

can't wait for them muddy faded KZ2 colors...or should i say doctored pics..

[jinn]

HELL NO!

[DiLeCtioN]

a fanboys nighmare, if it comes it comes only the fanboys cry.

[Lord_Mike]

I have a PS3 and if GoW3 comes out for it, I'll buy it first day. If it doesn't then oh well. No doubt GoW is a great game.

[jackdoe]

I'm pretty sure MS will pony up a large enough sum of money to convince Epic otherwise.

[jcgamer]

Marcus Fenix for President...

[dinkeldinkse]

He would definitely would get my vote.You imagine how bad arse that would be. Ah, man I wish he was real, he would so kick Chuck Norris's arse.Chuck Norris would try a round house kick to the face and he would block it and knock him down then he would curb stop him or pull out his chainsaw bayonet and say goodbye to Chuck.

Sorry,about that, it would be cool if gears did come to the ps3, but I'll just play it at a friend's house if it doesn't.

Oh, fan boys STFU. Yeah, I am talking about you POG, Icewake, aaquib5, TANOD, bloodmask, bladestar, and etc. I would mention more, but I don't feel like putting half of the people,that posted, on here.

[CrazzyMan]

That would be FUNNY. =))

[jackdoe]

Well, technically, GeoW Sigma is the PC version. Improved visuals + more fleshed out story.

Hey Jack T. actually Ngai Croal is not a ps fanboy. He is the one who called the ps3 sales abysymall and been qutoed by the USA today. So his probably not a fanboy. Watch this episode of bonus round and look if NGAi croal is really a psfanboy.

Really these 360 games going to ps3 and vise versa articles are just the fuel to this stupid and uneeded console war really if you want to play all the greatest games just buy all the consoles.

[Clinton514]

N'Gai knows what he's talking about. It's possible that Gears ends up on the PS3. Does that mean it will happen? Who knows, but I know this much...he does not speculate based on nothing like half of you rabid fangirls. The man knows the industry.

So cry on.

[WilliamRLBaker]

Wow....Lets see first off....

Microsoft gaming studios is publisher.....

Oh and they mention the contract with microsoft is only for 2 sequals....ummm yeah that includes the original game.....Gears of war 1, Gears of War 2, Gears of war 3.....The writer of this article is a retard....He said him self Contracted to publish 2 sequals for the game....That includes.... ((((((((GEARS OF WAR 3)))))))

Oh and lets not forget epics other game UT3 only got like 93,000 sales in its first week on the ps3 in america.....what did gears of war get in its first week?

http://vgchartz.com/games/g...
1 million world wide:)

Critical reception of the 360 at the time exclusive of gears of war.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

Edit: what I said was fact, and its proven more fact by the fact you cannot post a reply with proof i'm wrong, you just post something to detract from me...I'm frankly suprised you can even type clinton....see I can do it too.

[Clinton514]

What you're saying is pretty laughable

[Clinton514]

N'gai doesn't rely on VGChartz or Wikipedia as his source of information.

Speculation based on an obtuse bias' aren't too viable.

[Kain81]

they sold 10 mio. units in 2006. this was the biggest lie i ever heard.
And you forget that M$ had no competitor at this time. its easy without competitor.

[bootsielon]

And it's good? How much can it last, what new things can they add? My bet is that it'll become your formulaic Unreal shooter, only this time it's 3rd person.

[Tyrael]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH A

[aba]

So introduce yourself to the Gears of War universe in the 3RD GAME? Retarded.

[The_Engineer]

it seems on the 360 that universe sunk down to tight corridors and small open areas manned by two NPC's with bad AI.

[aba]

Yeah and you'd still buy it on launch if it came to ps3. Shut the f**k up.

[Wii60_FTW]

M$ isn't as braindead as Sony. They will guarantee GoW 3's exclusivity. Sorry, fanboys. Looks like you'll have to stick with Kiddy Big World and Lesbian Sword.

[The Dark Knight]

okay number 1, gears is microsoft property , and no way in hell they will give up one of there best games,

number 2, why the hell would you start from 3? its like watching robocop 3 and thinking whos that guy is robo friends with him?? or how did he turn like that?

its ridiculous its not going to your stupid ps3

[solidt12]

We will know next year after Gear 2 comes out because thats when they will start on Gear 3. I think it could happen depending on how the market is.

[TUFFnNYC]

Wow. Alot of ignorance here. Lets just settle it now. Money speaks volumes. Money influences even the most powerful. Money. Money. Money. We have already seen what money can do. Flashback: M$ spent how much to have exclusive content in GTA4? I do reckon it was an absurd amount. Man crap like that is the same reason they call the yankees the evil empire. So, we dont know what can happen nowadays. Anything can happen when money is involved. Im sure that of M$ spent millions on influencing Kojima then they would make MSG4 for the 360. It will be crappy and what not but it can happen. Thank god its not.

[SDS Overfiend]

Contract Extensions people. Besides M$ Owns the rights to Marcus Fenix so i say There is no deal. Obviously this guy just wants the hits to his website and the added attention. This should'nt even have been posted.

[QuackPot]

The Ps3 has KZ2.

And with the glimpes we've seen already and clear improvements to the original game - including useable vehicles and an aliens faction - then who cares about GeoW.

KZ2 will the the king of the roost for FPS in 2008.

[Kain81]

but i believe Sony will Win this war.
GofW3 make his way to Playstation 3 for sure

[SuperSaiyan4]

Cliffy B confirmed ages ago that Gears Of War is Microsofts IP so no Gears or anything related to do with Gears on the PS3 ever and nor is Mass Effect coming to the PS3, EA already said and so did Bioware that they will continue to work as they are.

Just as many of you believe no MGS4 and FF13 on the 360 then same case applies unless you Sony fans want all the 360 games soo bad and dont mind in most cases waiting half a year for a poor port.

[Nicosia]

What Ngai is missing is the fact microsoft hinted @ a trilogy. Everybody is getting to happy, but forget micosofts moneyhat. Knowing microsoft they will keep it under there wing. And btw Ngai yeah epic knows how to work the unreal engine, but does that imply that GOW3 is going on the ps3? We all know he's a big sony supporter...

Edit: Ngai has a point, but he clearly stated in part 2 that he is waiting for microsoft to do something.

[Nicosia]

I saw part 1 of Bonus Round: Did pachter day 6moth exclusive for MGS4?

[Prismo_Fillusion]

"A trilogy"
The storyline in GoW should is nothing so spectacular to warrant the word "trilogy". It's even much less bearable than the Halo storyline.

Both Halo and GoW are awesome games by the way (and I've played entirely through Halo 1, 2, and GoW)...but come on...

[0LDSCH00L]

N'Gai Croal is a Sony Fanboy read his blogs! lots of talk about MS losing this game and that game, but funny.. no mention of MGS4 or FFXIII going the other way, and Pachter, well.. he's just an idiot! that f*ckin tool has been spoutin off doom & gloom for the 360 since it's launch!

[UltramanJ]

I really like this guy, and he's saying the exact same thing I've already said in the past. Gears of War is a two game exclusive deal for the Xbox 360. The third Gears game is going to be on PS3. There's nothing to argue or disagree about here. If M$ wants to keep the series on 360 it's going to cost them an awful lot more money than the first game did.

[fox_mccloud07]

no

[SDS Overfiend]

Blogs is going to ruin the internet?

Since this is where a bulk of the misquided news comes from nowadays. Maybe i should get one and say.....Analysts predict that MSG5 will be a 360 exclusive if Sony does'nt catch up. Can you imagine the Comment that will generate just cause i made something up on my blog for hits?

Come on people.

[bourner]

bye the time this comes out i think there will be a new xbox

[caffman]

Never trust a Klingon!

[batosaims]

microsoft sure as hell wont let this happen
when money talks people listen

beside ngai is a sony ass kisser no one can deny that

and i think these guys are contridicting themselves

if ms published the first mass effect how would it go to the ps3
i mean if it could wouldnt gears of war 1 and 2 go to the ps3

it aint gonna happen because ms has publishing rights
