Microsoft Exec Accidentally Gives Hope for Xbox One Gears of War Collection
Phil Spencer, who makes the decisions about what games will come to Xbox platforms, recently retweeted a tweet about a "Marcus Fenix Collection" Xbox One bundle that would hypothetically include remastered versions of Gears of War 1-3. Unfortunately, it wasn't a sign that such a bundle is in the works.
Spencer now says it was a "mistake" to retweet the message. That doesn't mean he's not excited about the future of Gears of War, however. "Love the passion for Gears, but no announce," he said.

Though a Marcus Phoenix Collection doesn't appear to be in the cards, Microsoft is planning to release a comprehensive bundle for one of its other major franchises--Halo--next month in the form of Halo: The Master Chief Collection. It includes remastered versions of Halo 1-4, among other special perks.
If you're looking to pick up all three Epic Games-developed Gears of War titles in one bundle, you can buy the Gears of War Triple Pack, which was released for Xbox 360 in 2011.
Microsoft acquired the Gears of War franchise from Epic Games earlier this year for an undisclosed sum. Black Tusk Studios, which is owned by Microsoft, is now working on a new Gears of War game for Xbox One. This game is in the very early stages of development, and all we've seen so far from it is a blurry piece of concept art.

This needs to happen. And I'm pretty confident It will happen.
Great game series, my favorite in fact.
Roll on Gears of war 4

*fangirl squeeel* A Fenix Collection (sounds cooler) would be amazing. I would more than likely lose my social life if it were ever released. A lot of people may not enjoy the series but the people who do are usually hardcore fans of the series so I hope they please their fans.

Haha! It makes perfect sense to release a fenix collection. It would reach out to new players of gears, giving them updated graphics on the one and allowing them to enjoy what I enjoyed back in 06.
Then they would be set up for gears 4!
It's gotta to be in the works. This time next year it will be on the shelves. 2016 will see the release of Gears 4. Boooom!

This would be the best thing to happen, LOVE the Gears Franchise and would absolutely buy a Fenix Collection if they ever made one, I still remember the grind me and a mate did on Gears 2 to get to 100 before Gears 3 came out, so much fun.

I seriously hope they'll remaster it but do it individually as oppose to a bundle. It being singular could give it all that much saturation and aspect changes with their multiplayers over.
It'd be nice to go back to those days for nostalgic reasons.
