    Gears of War 4 | Gears of War Ultimate

    Will loosely follow established canon
    Don’t expect to play a new Gears of War for a long time. Black Tusk Studios’ manager Rod Fergusson has told fans that the new game is still very much in the prototype stage, with only 100 days under its belt. Further, he made some interesting comments about the studio’s approach to canon, as well as sort of showing off some new concept art.

    All of this sort-of news comes from the latest Black Tusk Rodcast. The most interesting comments came when Fergusson was asked if the new game would honour the canon established by other Gears media like books and comics. “Yes, as best we can,” replied Fergusson. “I believe fun is greater than canon. That’s not to say I’m going out of my way to destroy canon, but if I get to a situation that may invalidate a comic book or a book, I’m going to make that fun decision.”

    This is the first time that Vancouver-based studio Black Tusk has worked on the franchise, after Microsoft acquired the Gears of War rights from Epic Games earlier this year.

    I think the remaster is likely a separate project and that BT's main focus is on a new game, much like 343 overseeing MC Collection while working on Halo 5.

    A “Gears of War: Ultimate Edition” has been rated by the Brazil Advisory Rating Board.

    The rating would appear to confirm the rumored Gears of War remaster reportedly in development at Splash Damage for Xbox One.

    If Xbox boss Phil Spencer is to go by, we’ll likely hear about it at E3 next month.

    Would be nice if it included Judgement. Passed on it but wouldn't mind playing it on XB1

    ouch, lol. http://kotaku.com/microsoft-punishes...x-o-1704531500
    Over the past couple of days, testers for a contracting company called VMC Games have been leaking out videos from their current project, the upcoming (unannounced) Gears of War remake for Xbox One. As you might expect, neither VMC nor Microsoft is pleased about these videos, and today, the two companies came down hard, telling testers in an e-mail that the leakers have been banned from VMC’s program and will lose access to their Xbox Ones entirely for a period of time to be determined by Microsoft in the future.

    Yep, according to VMC, Microsoft has both permanently banned those leakers’ Xbox Live accounts and temporarily made their Xbox Ones totally unusable. If you didn’t think Microsoft had this power, you’re not alone. The digital present is scary. (To be clear: VMC contractors tell us they use their personal consoles for testing, not any sort of debug machines provided by the company.)

    Microsoft sent out a correction stating that the XBones are still playable for offline gaming;

    To be clear, if a console is suspended from Xbox Live for a violation of the Terms of Use, it can still be used offline. Microsoft enforcement action does not result in a console becoming unusable. Suspensions for both consoles and accounts are determined by looking at a number of factors. To avoid enforcement action including suspension from the service, users should follow the Xbox Live Terms of Use and Code of Conduct.

    Gears of War 3 was arguably the best 3rd person experience on any console. So if the game handles like that I'm super down to drop money on this.

    It'll probably come to Windows 10. Microsoft's theme this years is cross compatibility between XBone & Win10.

    So if I am reading that right they are saying if you get Gears Remastered in that timeframe they will give you free downloads of Gears 2 & 3?
