    Wow, such an on the ball move for Microsoft.

    Why did they wait so long tbh? Should have been a launch title.

    Fine by me, they can add it to their stable of wrung out FPS games along with Halo.

    Enjoyed all the GoW games! Really liked the snack sized Judgement Game that People Can Fly developed. Although couldn't stomach the full price, bought it second hand! :thumb:

    I'm genuinely surprised with two things about this news:

    1 being they didn't own the IP already and 2 being that it seems to be news worthy. I mean, I've read they bought it in 3 places now.

    Basically what MS are saying is that the Unreal Engine meat head simulator can't die. It is just too good to put to bed...
