Gears of War could get remastered collection similar to Halo: MCC

  • Posted on 27 January 22 at 16:00
    I don't know if anyone said this yet but the rumored Trilogy remaster could be Crackdown or Project Gotham Racing.
    If its Gears I'm not totally opposed to it, however the first Gears already was remastered in a sense. Just my opinion, but I would prefer to play a remastered Gears collection instead of the "next" Gears game, as I do not like where TC is going with the franchise, I did not care for Gears 5

    if you listen to the actual podcast he makes it seem like its not something like gears or fable.. Remember xbox owns bethesda and could make a collection of remastered morrowind, oblivion and skyrim. or the fallout series aswell. Maybe even crackdown
    Playing the original Crackdown and collecting all of the orbs would be a blast! I played the living shit out of the first. I completed most of the second, story, orbs, etc but did not 100% it. Crackdown 3 was a disappointment to me. I did not get very far in that one.

    I am, however interested in playing the first again if they do remaster it!

    Surprise....Surprise, Micro$oft has ANOTHER unoriginal idea, instead of making a new IP with all these devs they've acquired.
    I'm just waiting for Goldeneye 007 and the new Perfect Dark!

    I still think Halo 5 should be added to the MCC, have it be a central hub for all "legacy" Halo games now that Infinite is out. I'm sure that's not as easy as I would think, but it sounds nice.

    Same for Gears, get everything but the latest release bundled into one package. People can enjoy higher player populations on higher resolution and framerates than before. Gears Collection isn't quite as interesting as Halo's to me, but I know there is still a lot of people that would eat this up.
    Halo 5 isn't a "legacy game" as it came out on Xbox One.
    MCC was originally designed to bundle all of the Master Chief games from the Xbox360 into single package, with an anniversary version of Halo 2, which the original was only available on the OG Xbox or via BC on the 360.
    It makes zero sense to bundle Halo 5 in with MCC as it was an Xbox One original, unlike all the games included in the Master Chief Collection.

    So what the hell is the ultimate edition then?
    UE is 1 remastered with the extra campaign chapters from the original PC version
    Could have sworn it was that plus the other 4 games of the 360

    This ^^^

    And by Legacy I don't just mean the old 360 games, just meant anything that isn't the latest release. I should've clarified that better. Anyway, I can't imagine the playerbase of Halo 5 MP is very large, would be cool to have it bundled into MCC and revitalize the game a bit. Additionally, it would give PC players their first chance to play Halo 5.

    I still don't agree.
    Master Chief Collection was put together as a chance for Xbox One players to play all previous (Master Chief)Halo games in one place before the launch of a full next-gen title in the form of Halo 5.
    Adding Halo 5 to Master Chief Collection is pointless.

    Besides, every game will eventually see a total drop off of players in its multiplayer as the years go on and new games in the franchise come out.
    Trying to forcibly keep a games multiplayer alive is just beating a dead horse.

    I mean I guess you could just play the 360 versions. I thought he was talking about those being different in some way instead tho

    Only interested if it's fable instead. I've played enough gears recently that I don't need a remastered original trilogy.

    UE was 1 remastered with the campaign chapters added from original PC version. It came with a set of codes to d/l 1-J I believe that play upscaled on the one/series.

    I would prefer Fable. I am done with Gears and I can't imagine them doing those Seriously again. That would put the game at over 1000 hours

    If it Gears of War then it will mean that the 360 games servers will be shut down and the games delisted. It will happened alot quicker than the Halo games which managed to last for 6 years.
    I fear you are right....however despite original Gears having remastered version, they didnt shut down 2006 OG servers. So here is hoping they dont close them down cause otherwise I can forget about doing 100% of the original trilogy, no way I would ever be able to do Seriously 2.0 and especially 3.0 in time, unless they give atleast 1 year notice beforehand

    Personally I hope there wouldnt even be multiplayer achievements included, because its just torture if in remastered versions they had the exact same damn achievements
    OG Gears 1 didn't have servers, it was all host based and I do believe it's the same case for 2 as well but Gears 3 is hosted on Dedicated servers from what I remember, so if this collection were to happen...I'd get grinding on 3 in the least.

    Ez pass. Though I wouldn't mind running through GoW 2's campaign once before shelving it. Especially the Riftworm section.

    I'd kill for a Fable 2 remaster. 3 wasn't to shabby either.

    Partially right. 3 has servers, but also host connection. Only allowed to use the servers if ya own all dlc, gotta love Epic lol
    So what, every major company pushes trash games or what?
