Gears of War' breaks out for Xbox
Tuesday
The game didn't sneak up on anyone — developer Epic Games and Microsoft hyped it for nearly a year and a half leading up to its release Nov. 12 — but the futuristic sci-fi combat game has overcome an industry hurdle in establishing a new intellectual property as a hit.
It's not easy to compete in the marketplace with Mario, Madden and other established franchises.
Gears of War has sold more than 1 million copies in the USA and an estimated 2 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling game for Microsoft's year-old Xbox 360 video game system.
