Gears Intel

With Cliffy B recently hinting that he knows where the next Gears game might be heading, we speculate on the vast possibilities and ask a question often floated around the Gears of War community - should Gears of War go fully open world?

We talk about open world gaming as a whole, what works for us and what doesn't, and how something like Gears could play with this style.

NOTE: We lost David's main mic recording on this episode so had to use our back up file, which may not be as crisp as always. Sorry about that.

Exclusivity and Xbox has been in the news a lot recently, and with Gears of War feeling like a niche IP these days, is it time for the games to become available on other platforms? We put the question to the fan community, and respond to your replies. - VIDEO VERSION on Youtube
