Microsoft says Gears of War would need to be reimagined for Xbox One
2006's Gears of War, 2008's Gears of War 2, 2011's Gears of War 3 and 2013's Gears of War Judgment were all published by Microsoft on Xbox 360. But the most recent title, which was the first to be developed by People Can Fly, a subsidiary of series creator Epic Games, didn't live up to the platform holder's expectations, Spencer suggested during an interview with IGN.
"I want to find a great Gears game. And I thought we did a good job with Judgment, but I don't think it hit the level of quality that we saw in the previous games," he said. "I think review scores showed that, sales showed that.
"I really think we'd need to take a step back with Epic and think about, I wouldn't call it a reboot because I think that's an overused term, but think about where that franchise goes and how to expand what it was. I'd love to have that conversation.
"I do talk to the Epic guys often. They're also busy right now. I think that they've said that Gears is kind of on the back burner for them. So I think it would be a situation when the opportunity came up at the right time it'd be great to sit down with them.
"They're again the right team to work on that game. Trying to find another team to do that game I think is possible, but you'd want to make sure you did that very carefully along with them to make sure we had the right thing in place.
"But I think that franchise would need to be, not reworked, but you'd think about how to expand the universe and what people are doing. Maybe make it more gritty, I don't know. You'd want to do something with it because I think it did kind of run its course on 360. And it was a great success on 360, but it doesn't quite have the story arc of a thing like Halo or something, at least the way it's played out in the games and I think we'd want to pump that up."

Dreams gears sucks idk why anyone ever liked it
Just it's to hard for you to play doesn't mean it sucks. If you'd take the time to learn a little it'd be easy and fun to play. Unlike how easy CoD is.

GoW1 was great, but seemed unfinished.
GoW2 was so grimy and hardcore looking, but lag completely **** that game over.. HARD.
GoW3 Beta? Awesome, literally the best video game I'd ever played..
GoW3, alright.. seemed to get a little mainstream, easier and more for the casual player.
Judgement, horrible, horrid, gross, disgusting. Never again.

doges The series got repetitive, if it does get re imagined then it could either be very good or very bad
Actually it would be amazing, especially on next gen,

Activez-Troubles I loved Gear of War 2, it would be awesome if they could make it like Gears 2
Gears 2 MP was awful. Now if they could fix problems in GoW3 and remake it then we'd be good. Judgment was to close to being CoD and to many changes which made playing stupid.
Preach activez preach. Lmao @ all the cod kids talking about gow being repetitive...

I disagree, I quite enjoyed the first two games, never played the third so I cannot give an opinion on it. The campaigns have a decent storyline and it's packed full of action. It's also very difficult at parts which makes the game that much better. It's a very popular game and it definitely does not suck.
