Great move by Microsoft to secure Gears. Even better move to hand it to Black Tusk. I have a feeling those guys will end up being what everyone thought 343 would. Still I hope MS will let them work on something other than Gears in the next 5 years.

The problem with skydrive is that you need a good upload speed to upload movies fast.
I use to use Sugarsync, which is almost the same. My upload speed is 3 mb/s, most people have decent download speed but terrible upload speed. It took like 3 hours to upload a 1.8 gb movie:x

Killed a new IP to take on Gears, though.... everyone was so excited by the vid they showed at E3.

A small blurb on Black Tusk. Crazy to think I have walked infront of their office 6 or 7 times on the way to Canucks games and didnt even know it. 
Who Is Black Tusk Studios?
A quick education on the new Gears of War developer.
by Mitch Dyer JANUARY 27, 2014
Microsoft Game Studios Vancouver is better known as Black Tusk. For a first-party, AAA game developer, it's fairly unknown... for now. The new Gears of War studio is about to become a household name. The team's debut game, a still untitled sci-fi action game, was revealed in an E3 2013 teaser trailer. That game's future remains uncertain in the wake of Microsoft's acquisition of the Gears of War IP.
The unknown studio holds the future of Microsoft's second most recognizable shooter series (next to Halo, of course) in its hands. But who is Black Tusk?
Black Tusk occupies two floors of a brick building in downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. It opened in 2010 as Microsoft Game Studios Vancouver, and received its new moniker in 2012, around the time its Project Columbia was canceled. Its staff is, for the most part, industry veterans with an average of 12 years experience. At the top is studio manager Rod Fergusson and general manager Hanno Lemke.
Fergusson spent a decade at Microsoft before working in various production roles to get Gears of War off the ground at Epic Games. He spent some time at Irrational Games finishing up BioShock Infinite, and a hot minute at a new 2K Games studio that may or may not be working on Mafia III.
Lemke, meanwhile, has been in charge of Microsoft's bigger properties' business -- Forza, Fable, Ryse, and more -- for a few years. He was also the general manager of EA's Black Box during its Need for Speed and Skate era.
The development team itself has a rich history of excellent games. The combined resume of Black Tusk's team includes Splinter Cell: Conviction, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, Crysis 2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, God of War III, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, The Saboteur, and more.
Black Tusk also recruited plenty of ex-employees of other Vancouver studios, including the shuttered Propaganda Games, Slant Six, and Black Box.
While Black Tusk doesn't have many household names among its ranks, the history is impressive and reassuring. Microsoft's Phil Spencer claimed the new IP -- the game we saw in Black Tusk's teaser trailer -- isn't shelved, merely that it was a "concept." The plan was to make "the next Halo," in terms of AAA, first-party importance.
Time will tell if Black Tusk will still get that opportunity.
For more on Black Tusk's future, including its Gears of War game, stay tuned to IGN.

I mean , it sucks for the new ip but maybe they can beef up the studio to 2 teams. But they kinda had to do it. Epic isn't that interested in making games anymore and they couldn't let the gears ip fall into anybody else's hands. Just happens they had a somewhat ready studio to take on gears and now they probably have a big 2015 holiday release

No it doesnt. the whole day one stuff was a big marketing ploy. you get a controller with a stamp and a card to unlock a achievement. it would have been better if the system was stamped and maybe numbered. you can buy the achievement off ebay.

FIFA is the best sports game this year.
On the other hand, Forza looks and sounds to be great. Either way, you are getting a great game.

I enjoy sports games the best, I guess racing is a sport too. I think I'd go FIFA I think those have more replay value. But on the other hand Forza does too. It's a tough choice.. Forza was the first game I bought for the xbone. I bought FIFA too but exchanged it for 2k after I sold my ps4 which I also owned 2k on.

I feel like both games I'll spend a lot of time on. Tough decision.
After that I'll get PvZ and then Titanfall.
