It’s a terrible answer, but it’s a ‘never say never’ thing,” said Fergusson. “We’re The Coalition. We wanted to brand ourselves around the franchise. We were looking at Turn 10, and we were looking at 343, and going, ‘okay, these are dedicated studios to a dedicated franchise.’ And so, we’re very dedicated to the Gears of War franchise, but that’s not to say we won’t do other things.
 
That's what I want from MS studios now. Not being tied to one IP
 
Sounds like they will be on Gears until Gears isn't popular anymore. Which is a lot more acceptable with the first party improvements MS made.
 
I want a sci-fi mocha game set I’m space like Omega Boost from any of the new studios...I remember in the b-roll for the PS4 Kazunori Yamauchi was like “the power of the PS4 allows us to create any game we could imagine” :p
