Gears of War Series Surpasses 19 Million Sales

IGN - Epic Games has revealed the lifetime sales for the Gears of War series -- the 19 million copies sold span three releases since November 2006. In its first week alone, Gears of War 3 sold 3 million, while Gears of War 2 garnered 2 million sales in its first weekend. Not bad.

How many of them are from gears on the PC

Lol.

Anyway, Hammerburst fans, Epic has brought back the original Hammerburst and you can now get the headshot with the new one XD

Edit: Twosouls, how old is that franchise? You should posted numbers for something like UC or Starhawk...

WrAiTh Sp3cTr34177d ago

Hmmm, I'm having trouble with that link. Is it directly from Sony? How many is it? I'm sure whatver it is, it's well deserved because it's a great franchise. Does it include the sales of the Vita's version?

@Digimon -DA HELL DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH uNCHARTED?

@ WrAiTh Sp3cTr3

You shouldn't be having trouble with the link, still works dandy. Quoted from the article: "The exact figure given by Sony was “over 17,320,000″ as of April 12, 2012. The series has seen main installments to date on PS3 – Drake’s Fortune in 2007, Among Thieves in 2009 and Drake’s Deception in 2011 – as well as Vita spin-off Golden Abyss earlier this year."

These are comments sections for us to respond to each other. Gladly, that has been the case for a long time. So when someone says something, and I reply to them, it shouldn't be such a remarkable surprise. He said something, I replied to it.

Might not be absolutely on topic, but it's a reply to a reply.

Impressive numbers for one of the best new IP's we saw this gen. One of my personal favourite series.

sweeeeeeeeeeeet
Switch and PS5 owners are gonna love this.

Stuart575691d ago

Every article, console fanboy trite, all these years later. Let me explain it AGAIN, in simple terms for the fanboys. Sentient human gamers do have their preferred platform, however they will buy and own multiple platforms so they can enjoy the games they want to enjoy. I own and have owned multiple platforms, Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft and now Valve, simply to enjoy a wide range of games across a broad spectrum of platforms. It's great. You don't have to pick a 'team' and cheer them on through thick and thin, dissing the other 'team'. And for you 'VenomUK' to state 'Switch and PS5 owners are gonna love this', proves that you're a bit behind. Learn, enjoy, live, develop, trust and coexist if you can, life is better that way.

Blad3runner0091d ago

@Stuart5756
Well said.
This is why i never understand fanboying over hardware. This is not like a sports team, its just hardware. Why some people have this mentality to pick a side and stick with it and refuse to look at other platforms, therefore depriving themselves of games that are only available on those platforms. They are suppose to be gamers after all?

FinalFantasyFanatic91d ago

It's practically guaranteed to come to PC as well, if that's the case, I might pick it up after it gets a discount or two.

TheEroica91d ago (Edited 91d ago )

Thank goodness for pro gamer companies like Microsoft.... It's about time we unified platforms where now only corporate suits benefit! Pro gamers all the way. Thanks Microsoft!

Yup ... bring Gears 2, 3 Judgement as well as Fable II and Halo 5 to PC

phoenixwing92d ago

Online portions would be a bonus.

FinalFantasyFanatic91d ago

I'm really shocked that Halo 5 still isn't on PC yet, almost everything is ported over and that's the only Halo game that hasn't been ported.

Profchaos92d ago

Take it with a grain of salt this leaker has been wrong many Times

The connection has been rumoured in the past so there's some credibility but it's more if it's actually in testing or not

Father__Merrin92d ago

tell u what gears 3 on series x same 360 game but in 4k and 60fps is a dream it looks crystal clear

Sciurus_vulgaris92d ago

The Series X enhanced versions of Gears 3 and Judgement can at times look like Xbox One titles.

Concertoine91d ago

Yeah i got into Gears 3 multiplayer last year. People still play it a lot. Tons of maps and looks great with the 60 FPS.

Brazz92d ago

It would be funny to see Gears of War collection on Nintendo Switch.
