Gears of War: Exile
« on: January 19, 2011, 06:34:46 AM »
What is Gears of War: Exile?

It looks like Gears of War 3 isn't the only dose of Epic's Xbox 360 franchise currently in the pipeline. A trademark for something called Gears of War: Exile has just popped up too.

No further information is offered by the listing, spotted by Siliconera, other than a logo, which you can see below.

A spokesperson for Epic refused to offer Eurogamer further clarification on what the listing may or may not refer to, explaining, "We have no news to share at this time."

Last month, speculation mounted that Epic was preparing to unveil a new Kinect-friendly Gears title. However, Microsoft allegedly pulled the plug and postponed the reveal at the last minute.

Gears creator Cliff Bleszinski later commented, "One thing I've learned in the world of video games, it's a war out there.

"There's a lot of strategising going on and at any point something may shift due to a strategic move that needs to happen. So I came out here potentially announcing something. It turns out the timing's not right."

a coop platformer starring 2 tickers called ralf and james, who escape being made into landmines by the locust and must travel back through caves to find there home of Ka Blamopia. On there journey they will fight powerful and dangerous enemies, whilst using their superior ricker knowledge to solve fiendish puzzles.

There will also be a multiplayer element in which 24 people on 2 teams can play ticker charades.

Hopefully it's a XBLA game to set up Gears 3, similar to Dead Rising: Case Zero and it should be free to everyone that has full achievements on Gears 2.   ;D

I moved the "Gears of War Kinect" discussion into the Kinect board.  I'll leave Exile here for now, while we wait for confirmation that Gears of War Kinect / Exile are the same thing or not.

Epic confirms Gears of War: Exile has been cancelled
Rumoured Kinect project scrapped

Epic Games has acknowledged that Gears of War: Exile, a franchise spin-off first rumoured back in 2010, once existed but has since been cancelled.

Design director Cliff Bleszinski broke the studio's silence in an interview with GameSpot over the weekend.

"Let's just bury the hatchet now," he said. "Gears of War: Exile was an unannounced game that I can't give any details about that has since been cancelled."

A planned reveal at the 2010 Spike VGA event was apparently pulled at the last minute for unspecified reasons.

A few months later, reports suggested that the title was to be an on-rails Kinect shooter and that a gameplay demo re-used sections of Gears of War 2.

Epic has since announced its next project will be scavenging adventure Fortnite, details of which are still thin on the ground.

As much as I love how "clever" the Kinect is, and I'm really finding the voice commands useful for Mass Effect 3, every full kinect title does seem to be utter shite. I noticed Rise of Nightmares is like a fiver now. Death to adult kinect titles, looks like it's just filling the gap for xbox people who don't have a Wii.
