Mark Rein on Gears of War going to the PS3: "Complete bullshit"!

Last week a rumor began to circulate about Epic Games wanting to port Gears of War to the PS3. Apparently Epic Games and Microsoft has had a rock relationship as of late and that is the reason. 

Epic's vice president Mark Rein has cleared up this rumor that began on a PS3 website.

"This story is complete bull****. I emailed the site and asked them to take it down. We're very happy with our relationship with Microsoft. If it weren't for them Gears wouldn't be the huge hit it has become."

People need to realize something, when a game is published by Microsoft Game Studios it is an intellectual IP that Microsoft owns.  A Microsoft Game Studios game will "NEVER" appear on another system, so why these rumors pop up is beyond me.

A perfect example of this is Bizarre Creations's Project Gotham racing series.  Bizarre is not a Microsoft owned studio but Microsoft owns the PGR series that Bizarre produces and that is why you will never see a PGR game on another system.
