Microsoft Now Owns Gears Too?


Posted on 01/31/2014 at 12:51 PM | Filed Under Blogs

I guess, but I just read that this Chinese company Tencent Holdings has half of Epic's stock. I wonder if they came in just to sell everything off and ultimate close the company. They came into Epic July 2012 and soon after all the key people at Epic left the company. Now it's a fire sale. I wonder if was all planned by Epic or if this constitutes a hostile takeover by Tencent just to profit from the sale of all Epic's properties?

Gears 3 was a amazing. I'll play Judgment sometime soon I think. The co-op is so darn good. I could care less about the story and characters though. I wonder what Epic is going to do now?.... working.... Holy Schemolie! Have you head about this Chinese company Tencent Holdings buying up almost half of Epic's stock? Soon after that happened in 2012, Cliff Bleszinski left as well as prez Mike Capps and a whole bunch of key people. Now the Gears IP is sold off too. Looks like Epic might be done. I wonder what Tencent gets out of all of this? It seems like they just ran Epic into the ground.

Epic owned the Gears IP until this news hit. MS just had a contract with them to release it only on their system.

They did Age of Empires Online in 2011. I wanted to play that. I was kinda hoping it would make it to Xbox 360. It looked a lot like Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution.

I was so into Bioshock Infinite's world when the trailers came out, but when I played it I was disappointed it wasn't as interactive as I expected it to be. It seemed like a frozen environment with the only interaction a few searchable spots and shooting enemy.

There's also Fable Trilogy out the same day Feb 4 as Anniversary containing Anniversary, Fable II and III. I almost want that but I have II and III now.

They had a deal with Epic Games to release exclusively on Xbox, but Epic owned the IP, until just recently. Now MS can assign whoever they want to do the next game, even to a studio that hasn't proven anything yet like Black Tusk.

Who's Rare? I mean, what happened to Rare? Since 2010 all they've done is Kinect Sports. OMG!
