Gear of War: Ultimate (remaster) [XO]

A few clips from GAF, it looks surprisingly good, I was worried the X1 wouldn't provide enough of a leap for a quick and dirty port, but I'm reasonably impressed

Questions: will it be 1080P or 1360X1080? 60 FPS? Release date? Shown at e3?

I am guessing Spring 2016. MS didn't have much this spring and they'll want to avoid that next year I figure. Fall 2015 doesn't work because it's already stacked and loaded. Fall 2016 could happen, but should be loaded with other big exclusives, whereas this seems more like a nice complementary title.

Good to see Gears franchise beginning to show signs of life again at any rate.

Easily best game in the franchise and an all time classic of gaming IMO. Really ushered in "next gen" in 2006.

Was expecting Gears trilogy against Uncharted Trilogy this holiday tho:), no point remastering just one game, just feel incomplete.

Locked 60fps... probably not. Hitting the 60fps delta (80% of the time), more than likely.

The bigger question is, are the game assets (textures and models) being updated? Or will it be similar to the PC port?
 
Alright, maybe they'll give us more Carmines to kill!
 
Big fan of the series. Not a fan of the story, but the gameplay was perfect. That said, not sure I'd pay to play them again.

I suppose it is a bit of everything. The same place in the original and the remake. /or will it be a remaster?/

Xbox 360 *note the mirror walls in this version*

Gears is best played Co-op, in my opinion.

Never played Gears 3, but without a person to co-op with I'm not sure how fun the games are solo.

Played the first solo the first time, while I played the 2nd and the 3rd in co-op mode with my best friend at the time. I think I also played the 1st one coop once I completed it solo, but yes, the co-op in that game was well made and other games followed suit.

Gears 1 is the best part.

The first was the best. Not a single mediocre stage in the entire game, fun all the way through. One of my favourite videogaming moments was when you need to switch the streetlights on in a stage (the one with the birds I think), and the cutscene seemed to be a CGI, the lights looked so good.

Will we see the Berserker in its full glory now? (X360's berserker looked far from the quality version of the wallpapers)

Hopefully the game is going to release this summer. The perfect game to play during the summer in short bursts.

Marcus and the lancer look updated.

It seems like the game has been updated in several areas, and will be outputting at 60 frames per second with updated graphics and textures, the lighting and shadowing seems to be updated too.

In game models look more slender and there are smoke particles. Resolution seems to be bumped too, but overall you can see the game is meant to run at 60 fps --it doesn't look as revolutionary or impressive as it was back in 2005-2006. As long as the framerate is perfect...
 
IIRC, it was bi linear + AF, so it still had the hard mipmap transitions, but not quite so blurry. Been awhile since I looked. It might have just been certain surfaces, dunno.
 
damn, the game didn't age well at all. Was hoping they port all 3 games to UE4 with same assets, just for the updated rendering engine alone, higher res and higher frame rate are already enough.
 
I assume it would be a similar situation as arkham knight. They have all the tools etc done to quickly make another gears or just upgrade the renderer and replace assets.


Bear in mind, if their target is 1080p60, I wouldn't bet on UE4's renderer on Xbox one.
