Did the Marcus Fenix Collection just get confirmed?

Did the Marcus Fenix Collection just get announce?

Da Ill One3371d ago

I don't need any trailers or anything, just give me the launch day so i can preload it. Bought first day possible.

Arkardo3371d ago

Same for me, i've been dying to play Gears again ( except judgment of course ), with improved graphics and 60 fps? Oh my!

So many memories playing co-op the entire game with a beloved friend, amazing.

Naga3371d ago

My body is still ready.

Fil1013371d ago

I preferred gears to halo

u got owned3371d ago

The generation of remakes :/

donthate3371d ago

@edonus:

I hope Gears of War:Judgment comes in the collection!

I think people hated on it because it was popular to hate on it, and the fact that the game changed quite a bit. I believe the whole, don't betray your fans too much is absolutely true.

Taken by itself Gears of War: Judgment was a fantastic game and loads of fun. The controls are less cluncky, and faster pace.

Apart from Mass Effect, Gears of War is the other series that I love and I mean LOVE!

So yeah, bring on the Gears of War collection with ALL games on one package!!! :D

XBLSkull3371d ago

I like gears but unless the collection has been remastered like Hal anniversary is 1080p 60fps and redone on unreal engine 4 I'm not gonna pick it up. Don't need a poor generic remaster like Last of Us. If it does turn out to be something special ill buy it.

LexHazard793371d ago (Edited 3371d ago )

@XBLSkull,

I own both consoles, and I can yell you right now The Last of Us Remastered is one of the best looking games this gen. And if it were on Xbox One it would probably be top 3 best looking games on Xbox, easy...
Nothing generic about it.

_-EDMIX-_3371d ago

@u got owned Not sure what you mean bud. Can you even list those um..."remakes" as a port isn't a remake.....

kickerz3371d ago

I think I would prefer an exciting new gears with awesome story, gameplay, graphics and multiplayer. Played the last 3 gears so much already, need new experiences:)

u got owned3370d ago

@_-EDMIX-_

then, The generation of Ports. Personally I think thats sounds worst.

_-EDMIX-_3370d ago

@u got owned- That makes even less sense as last gen got MORE ports during this period and time. As 360's launch as full of ports and PC ports.

Mind you...LOOK AT PSN and XBL! They are full of ports from last gen, we don't even have NEAR the amount of ports as from last gen bud, not even slightly close.

Please...go on PSN, look at PS2 classics. Go on XBL...look at XB originals, XBLA etc.

We got tons of ports last gen, just like we will this gen, just like we've get YEARS prior.

This is the nature of gaming, every gen will be a gen of "ports" as its the natural way of gaming and business.

Gotcha53370d ago

@Arkardo

Same here Bro... can't wait to get back at those maps Bullet Marsh, Mansion, Canal, Raven Down, Fuel Depot, Under Hill, Grind Yard, Tyro Station, Avalanche, Security, Pavillion, Blood Drive, Overpass, Checkout, Jacinto, Drydock, Rust Lung and Clock Tower. I don't care if they throw in Judgement as a bonus just change up the MP (Over Run was fun to me).I'm so pumped for Gears.

guitarded773370d ago

I hope so... it would get me to jump on an X1. As long as it comes with a new Gears announcement around the corner, like how the Master Chief Collection has a new Halo within a year or so of launch. Collections are nice, but new games on the new hardware is what I want. I also want them to use the term "Gears" for Gears of War... whenever I see "GoW" I think of the other franchise. "Gears", "GoW"... it's not that difficult. It's like how "FPS" gets used for "First Person Shooter" AND "Frames Per Second"... kinda bugs me... just sayin'.

Insomnia_843370d ago (Edited 3370d ago )

I would get a bundle of a Gears Collection and XBone for $300.

Yetter3370d ago

I'd kinda want them to throw judgement in just because I never played it

skratchy3370d ago

@XBLSkull

"Don't need a poor generic remaster like Last of Us. If it does turn out to be something special ill buy it."

You Xbone fanboys are ridiculous. So 1080P remakes are only cool when they're TWO GENERATIONS old, and also Halo?

UnHoly_One3370d ago

His point is that Halo anniversary was completely rebuilt with new graphics. Not just bumped up in res and framerate.

XeroTheory3370d ago

@u got owned

It may seem that way, but rereleases are nothing new. Look at Resident Evil 2 and 3 on the Gamecube, the dozens upon dozens of rereleases of just about every Final Fantasy title across numerous consoles (oh cool, FFVII for the billionth time...), Conker's Bad Fur Day from N64 to Xbox (Live & Reloaded), a bunch of Mega Man games and Mario games (Mario 64 on the DS for example), just about every Pokemon title is a remake these days (red/blue became firered/leafgreen, silver/gold became heartgold/soulsilver, etc).

This whole rerelease/remake business is nothing new, we just notice it a lot more now because gaming has become insanely popular compared to 10-20 years ago. I just wish devs would do actual REMAKES and not just a resolution bump. Games like the Resident Evil 1 remake for the Gamecube (and, kind of ironically, HD ported to current/next gen just recently) and Metal Gear: Twin Snakes were true remakes in that the remake was built from the ground up and not just an alteration of the original source code.

krypt19833370d ago

the game does not need to be 60fps, 30 is fine for a tps but i do hope this collection comes out and they take there time with 4

UnHoly_One3371d ago (Edited 3371d ago )

If they include the multiplayer from all 3 of them, in one matchmaking, like the Halo: MCC, I'm all over it. (like the Halo: MCC only it works properly is what I meant)

I'd love if they could somehow make the first 2 games 4 player co-op, but I understand that it wouldn't work within the story, and that the levels were never designed or balanced for 4 players, either.

otherZinc3371d ago

Agreed! Paid in full, Emergence Day!

AngelicIceDiamond3371d ago

There goes one of MS surprises for E3 /:

But this news would be MEGATON nonetheless.

KiwiViper853371d ago

I think the surprise element is very minimal, as a large majority have been expecting this.

But at least E3 will be confirmation, it's not real till it comes out on stage.

guyman3370d ago

A remaster being a megaton? i don't think so. An official gears of war 4 reveal with gameplay/story trailer? That would be megaton.

chrismichaels043371d ago (Edited 3371d ago )

My fondest memories on the Xbox360 was with Gears of War. Definitely one of my most favorite franchises of all time. This news is just as exciting as the recently rumored Uncharted Collection for PS4.

showtimefolks3370d ago

i hope we get

gears of war
uncharted trilogy
god of war collection
metal gear solid collection for ps4/xbox one

plut0nash3370d ago

Loved the first Gears of War. Second and third not so much. A remastered GoW 1 gets my vote every time though.

GarrusVakarian3371d ago

I'd buy this for Gears 3 alone. That horde mode in 60fps. *Drool*

Arkardo3371d ago

Really nice!

So long since I played them, it will be amazing if they announce it to launch this year, best timing ever.

holysmokesbatman3371d ago

They will, it'll be the main holiday game alongside Forza 6... It's practically free money for MS.
Day 1

lunatic00013371d ago (Edited 3371d ago )

It depends...if they announce it for the summer...it would be awesome but I can't see ms releasing this game anywhere near the timeframe that halo 5 comes out...I don't think they want their two biggest franchises competing for sales against eachother

tinynuggins3371d ago

I can't see them releasing a GOW collection holiday 2015 along side Halo. More likely it would be a march 2016 release to wet the appetite for a holiday 2016 GOW.

Bobby Kotex3371d ago

You would pay $60 for Gears horde mode? Ok.

GarrusVakarian3371d ago

Learn to read, I said I'd buy it for Gears 3 alone, meaning the entire game and everything that comes with it (MP, horde, co-op campaign) not just for horde mode.

And anyway, I think of my purchases when it comes to games in terms of how much time & enjoyment I'm going to get out of them. Even if I was only planning to play the horde mode, I'd still pay full price for it because I know I'd be getting my money's worth.

Is that answer satisfactory, good sir?

JeffGUNZ3370d ago

WTF do you care what this guy plays or what is worth his purchase? You paying his allowance? Grow up man.

iistuii3370d ago

Is pay it for Horde mode remastered. Like the guy says, it's how much enjoyment & time you'd get out of your purchase. I mean, if folks paid the same for The Order & it's done in 7 hours, & yeah I've platinumed it so I know it's true, then Horde mode alone would be completely worth the money to me.

StrayaKNT3371d ago

Basically same as what that guy said ^^ Day one. Please Phil Spencer let this be true I will do anything for this collection!

Da Ill One3371d ago (Edited 3371d ago )

Although I would like to add, i think we all KNOW it's coming, the question is when? Next year is the 10 year anniversary of gears 1. so that could be a good time, but Gears 5 is supposed to come out in 2016 as well, do they want both in the same year? I'm really hoping for an E3 reveal with a release shortly after like August/September of this year.

Arkardo3371d ago

I'm hoping for the E3 reveal with a short window release a la Forza Horizon 2!

Let's cross fingers fort this!

nucky643371d ago

if that comes out, i'll get an x1 to play it. - that would be a great collection.

Xbox No Longer Has Its Head In The Game

Microsoft & Xbox have shut down Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks to lay off more workers, insinuating that they're not in the game anymore.

XiNatsuDragnel29d ago

They're headless for a long time because closing tango isn't exactly a good move

PapaBop28d ago

Ever since that cringe Kinect reveal they've never been the same. They used to make some amazing games and do great deals with third parties Early on in the 360 era they had games like Chromehounds and Shadowrun, both well ahead of their time. Now instead of nurturing their studios, they'd rather gaslight gamers and throw billions on pre existing studios. Not sure how Spencer is still in a job, I wouldn't trust him to organise a piss-up in a brewery.

Father__Merrin28d ago

We've said all along Spencer needs to go. I wish xbox went back to xbox only with new gears fable forza halo releases lots of third party releases

Those early rainbow 6 Vegas days and phantasy star universe are gone forever

S2Killinit28d ago

MS has its head in the game but the game they are playing is something different from what console gamers expect from a platform. MS’s end game has always been to use the xbox as a trojan horse.

XiNatsuDragnel27d ago

Lol that's funny well this plan they have isn't working homie

Acquisitions always come with cuts

“Acquisitions always come with cuts”

343 trillion points shield activated
343 trillion percent damage negate activated

MICROSOFT DEFENSE FORCE IS A GO

Tacoboto28d ago

Especially for Microsoft, when Booty pretty much said they didn't know how to handle that many studios.

Why even make the acquisition then.

-Foxtrot28d ago

Didn’t they make the swipe for Bethesda when Sony wanted like 6 months exclusiveness for Starfield

It’s like…chill, you got Rise of the Tomb Raider for a year.

romulus2328d ago

Do they always come with senseless cuts becasue that's exactly what cutting Tango was, senseless.

H928d ago

Everyone's acting now that game companies care about games and Xbox is committing the Ultimate betrayal, they are all like this and you have just been quiet about it for far too long

Nuclearmoon28d ago

I wonder if Microsoft do pull out of the console market that it might open the door for valve to relaunch the Steambox. Competition is good for the industry but Microsoft don't even seem to be trying anymore.

UltimateOwnage28d ago

Steam / Valve are one of the few truly pro-consumer bright spots in gaming right now. Thankfully.

Jingsing27d ago

From all the money Valve make from Steam they reinvest almost 0 into creating new AAA titles for the PC platform, Absolutely no giving nothing back in that regard. Wake up.

jwillj2k428d ago (Edited 28d ago )

“Your game has won some pretty significant awards and is a show piece for where we want to go in the future.”

1 hour later.

“We’re gonna have to let you go. You can’t cover our 100 billion dollar acquisition. Oh and take your awards too 👍🏾”

Fallout 76 Players Have Nuked Phil Spencer in Response to Studio Closures

Fallout 76 players have dropped the big one on Phil Spencer in response to Xbox's closures of Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks this week.

Meet The Guy Who Just Nuked Xbox Boss Phil Spencer In Fallout 76

He said he treated the Xbox executive like the RPG's final boss

Jingsing30d ago

Somewhat fitting, Considering buying Bethesda was a complete selfish purchasing decision by himself just because he is a big Fallout fan he wanted to own the toy. Well quite frankly Microsoft should look at that and say you put your personal tastes in front of the business and it has backfired.

anast29d ago

Todd Howard out hustled Phil. Howard is definitely in the top 3 all time hustlers in video game history.

OtterX29d ago (Edited 29d ago )

Phil's game character properly looks like a villain too.
