Epic would like CoD level success with Gears of War 4
Gears of War 3 shifted over three million copies in its first week on sale, cementing its position as "the biggest game of 2011", according to publisher Microsoft, but speaking to Develop, presumably just prior to its release, Bleszinski said he's not satisfied with the franchise's performance to date.
"We can do better. We can always do better," he said. "The number of gamers playing the game online - I'm hoping Gears of War 3 has more than Gears 1 or 2 ever did, especially considering how competitive the market is.
"You look at the numbers that Call of Duty and Halo pulls and we're not at that point yet. I'm hoping Gears of War 3 brings us closer to that point. People forgot also that we're only the third game of the series.
"There's been a couple more Halo's and a few more Call of Duty's so who knows, maybe we'll be able to build upon that success," Bleszinski added."I want with this game, more so than any other game we've ever made, for people to avoid the perception of what the game is. If you haven't played a Gears game, now please give this one a try. We really do think you'll like it a lot."

gears of war is by far alot better than any call of duty. just give it a chance and you will like it alot better. i personally hate 3rd person shooters but the gears of war series is my favorite shooter and my favorite game on xbox.

Im not Gears of wars biggest fan, although epic does a flawless job on it, 3rd person games just arent my play-style. Although I did buy it, and it is a BIG success for all those gears fans out there. It should attract more players also.
Good job epic! ;)
Good job epic! ;)

They deserve all the attention they can get, I'd like to see them make another Unreal Tournament game or atleast remake the 2004 edition of the game.
