Mexican gamer's are the most passionate about the series including all of Latin America. Most of the people who I play against seem to be from Mexico.

Very true. Played with a lot of folks from mexico back in my gamebattle days.

@Gahl, maybe it's the violence that attracts those of Aztec or south American decent

FallenAngel19841984d ago

Mic interested in how this will turn out

Alexious1984d ago

I hope they make Gears Tactics for Xbox One as well.

King_Noctis1984d ago

There is a very good chance that this will happen since KB and mouse can now be used on the X1.

KaiPow1984d ago

I still can't believe Gears is what they chose for the first game based off the Pop toy line.

badz1491983d ago

what else is there? the only other option is Halo. they can't POP Forza

Baza1984d ago

Interesting to see how receptive the gears community is to a female lead. Battlefield V got ripped to shreds

King_Noctis1984d ago

BF V set in a realistic setting, so its no wonder why it got backlash. Gears is fantasy at best, so I think it will do just fine.

Mainman1871984d ago

It'll do Gears Judgement numbers.

Dreamcatcher451983d ago

It will probably not do as the most famous iterations, but come on man.

I don't think that matters in a fantasy universe so much as a WW2 era title.

I'm completely fine with it I actually am looking forward to gears 5 JD had a fairly dull personality so I'm glad he isn't the main again.

I'm more so looking forward to full blown mo cap making gears more like uncharted or tomb raider in character movements would be huge (obviously not climbing stuff) but it's those little motions that you see protagonist and characters take in other games that helps breathe life into a story it will help gears overall

Maybe that's a good indication that people didn't have a problem with the female lead, but with the context by which it was included. Kind of like most people who had a problem with it said they had no problem with women in games.

Plus, I don't think ms is doing this with some sort of SJW agenda. More likely they just felt she was the more interesting character. I don't think ms is so oblivious to think that adding in a female character will attract a bunch of female gamers to a game set in a dark future where you tear aliens apart with ridiculously oversized and overdesigned guns.

Kait looks like a boring character.

Profchaos1983d ago

So was JD I'd prefer to play as kaits uncle even if 50 percent of the game is drinking minigames
