Gears of War FPS could happen, “Never say never” – Epic

OXM: Glass is see-through, puddings are tasty and Epic isn't ruling out the prospect of a first-person Gears of War, providing fans give the go-word. (Gears of War, Xbox 360)

Could be really good. The Gears of War design (like the enemies) and weaponry is really cool, and would work very well in an FPS if done right.

Agreed. Bulletstorm kind of proves the point, doesn't it?

I want to see a Gears of War RTS

Gears of War: Wars :3

Seriously though a Gears of war RTS would be awesome!

Using a Surface enabled smartphone as a controller could be interesting.

@The Meerkat

Thats a really good idea! Would defo like to use the controller along side it though lol. Maybe use a tablet for the map?

Better yet what if you (using your controller) create unit groups and your smartphone/tablet then gives you a shortcut to quickly access those groups!

Dont milk it this way, PLEASE!

I don't know if switching up the series in such a way should be considered "milking".

To change the formula of the series in any significant fashion is kind of the opposite, really.
DigitalAnalog  +   290d ago
Although I don't mind switching up the formula. I think it's time for the Gears series to rest. It's time for them to try something new and revitalize new IP.

I prefer tps but i would like to see guerilla do a first person gears with killzone graphics and epic to do a third person killzone, i KNOW both would be awesome.

I hated bulletstorm and i hate that people can fly are doing gears judgement.

now it's time to cater for demand from bro and casual gamers.

Definitely would like to see a first person chain saw kill rather then dooms. If they go through with, it let it be on the next Xbox, running on the UE4:)

Would be interesting and a bit of a risk, maybe it'll get done one day? Bulletstorm sort of proved it would work well.

Sort of how that Call Of Duty third person game was about to be made until Infinity Ward died out. Would love to actually see a Call Of Duty adventure type of game.

It would be the perfect shooter. Proper cover system and all.
CanadianTurtle  +   290d ago
Making GoW an FPS? First of all...why? Its perfectly fine the way it is. If they wanted to make a TPS of GoW, they'd have to add a cover system to it like KZ3, so I guess it'd be kind of cool.

Theres nothing wrong with changing up a series every so often, but changing one of the main gaming mechanics which also dictated animations and the cover system that gave the game its distinct feel?

Cant see it happening for the main series. Gears of War is for many people one of the best third person cover based shooters out there.

MS already has Halo as its flagship FPS. Cant see them wanting epic to change their game so much.
