exTas1s: Gears of War Collection is releasing Day One on PS5/XSX/PC in 2025

There are a lot of rumors about this collection, I think this will retire Xenia for me, as my interest was the Gears franchise from 2 onwards and RDR. The latter came out for PC, so only Gears remains.
 
Hoping form crossplay co-op, so I can play it with my friends who deserted to other platforms. Just like in the olden times
Snap. I was the one that returned to PlayStation after those glorious 360 days of multiplayer magic. So many games, so many experiences 😎

I have to be honest. Some campaign coop and gears 2 horde on river. Sounds just about right 👍

If so, day 1 and Microsoft can finally start taking my cash again 😁😂

Love the Gears series i'm all for an upgraded collection like master chief collection, and yes on PS5 so we get tons more people to play with.

I miss the days of Horde mode when it was at its peak, bring it all back remade! All the maps modes everything. <3
 
Port everything to UE5. That would make this collection one of the greatest deals in gaming since the Orange Box.
It would also take up your entire hard drive and then some, plus take multiple discs. As cool as that could be, it would take a ton of work, and have issues. I'd personally be fine with remasters, don't need remakes. Then again, the only gears I have played is Gears 1 and some of 5.

Yeah, I could see how that would get boring after fighting the same enemies every 5 minutes in the last 4 previous games. Totally ...
I think what he tries to say is fighting with robots after locust and lambent isn't really that fun. They just sucked as an enemy and dragged for way too long

I do loved the intro though, that whole bit with going through eras was a fantastic idea

Well everyone's entitled to their opinion. I thought it was great after 4 games of the same thing (I liked all 4 previous games a lot as well). Got a lot more lore and got to see the other side. Was a huge breath of fresh air from an art design standpoint. New weapons as well. The robo shotgun was great. I just didn't have anything bad to say about it. And then they mixed it up after a few levels as well, more than the previous games.
 
4 and 5 don't need remakes. 4 is close to Uncharted 4 visually. 1 already got upgraded. Just leaves 2, 3 and Judgment.
Yeah, 4 and 5 don't need it.

But leaving out the first one would be a big mistake: while the upgrade is already great, it would pale in front of a UE5 port.

So we have 4 games. Even 3 remakes for the price of one would be too good.
 
Call it something fancy and price it at 89/99.

Five remakes at a standard price is just wishful thinking, you're right I'm afraid.
Haha sorry I was playing on a meme for Gears of War 2 when it was reviewed by (I think) IGN, when they said it was almost too good.

Standard pricing at £60 is what I would expect. These are older games that will likely be ported. It doesn't need fancy treatment.

Sony has Bloodborne remake
Microsoft has Gears trilogy remake

Both platforms must have new rumors every 4 months about these games until we all die of old age.

1-3 are incredible. can't decide which is better. 2 or 3. Amazing games.
4.... ehhh Marcus parts are fine and make me smile but it sucks otherwise.
5... kill me
My ranking is similar, I loved entire trilogy. If I would have to pick one I would probably pick Gears 2 as in my opinion it had the best campaign. Gears 4 was just meh, and Gears 5 was... yeah, I didn't enjoyed it too. One thing that was great that came out of it was Hivebusters dlc though. It was so fucking good

anyway. e-day trailed made me cry
 
People that buy this on PS5 should turn cross play off because youd get free episiotomies from the OG crew. I might be old and washed up but I got a few more wall bounces in me yet.
It‘s beena few yers, but I‘d still consider myself part of the OG crew. Still remember it took me exactly 13451 kills to get the first seriously lol.

If they port Gears 4 and 5 to Switch 2 I'll bite, as I never owned an Xbox One.
Already own 1/2/3/Judgement on 360 and as a rule I don't buy rereleases of stuff I already own.

Same. Took freaking forever. I wore that profile pic until the series x came out. My one buddy didn’t get his to pop until close to 15k.
