E3 2016: 7 Ups & 5 Downs From Microsoft's Conference
6. Old Marcus Appears In Gears Of War 4
While it's fair to say that the gameplay footage from Gears of War 4 wasn't much more than the standard Gears gameplay we've all come to expect, there was a welcome stinger at the end of the clip to soften the blow for those who are disappointed that we're not playing as series protagonist Marcus Fenix this time.
At the end of the footage, Marcus' son and new protagonist J.D. Fenix arrives home where his grizzled father is waiting for him and simply says, "Welcome home, James."
Though we probably won't be seeing Marcus suit up in the game, it's awesome that he'll at least have a quick appearance in some capacity.
