It looks as if the plans by Microsoft to make it big in the movies have not had much success, unlike other platforms.
It seems that not only is Halo in a different dimension, having failed to develop into a viable film project, but also Gears of War is suffering from development block.
There is one issue that seems to run though these failing projects and its cash. These films require some serious investment and studios may not be willing to commit to that sort of risk under the current financial situation.
Gears of War may have been a hit for the Xbox 360, but as a film it is a risky business with an initial $100 million budget.
