No, just change it to Gears of War Trilogy.

Has it been confirmed as a Trilogy? If not, just change it to Gears of War 2. We did the same deal with Halo 3 instead of Halo Trilogy.

Yupp, it sure has been. All the way back in 2006.
Gears of War trilogy confirmed - VideoGamesBlogger

While that may be, for some reason developers of the game have been keeping a tight lip if it is a trilogy, if there will be more games or not.

^ We'll just have to wait and see I guess.

Actually just making them generic would be better. Making changes when the game releases a new version provides more work for the mod team, and it is not good for search engine results. Where as if it was just say Gears of War, then people know that this is the sub-forum to talk about anything that deals with Gears of War. If it was Gears of War 2, then that would mean people would think that only Gears of War 2 material should be posted there. Also, when changing the name of a forum, you have to deal with the content in that forum. So if we change Gears of War to Gears of War 2, then all of the Gears of War 1 stuff is now in the wrong forum.

When creating sub-forums, or any forum titles, it is best to leave them generic, but descriptive at the same time.

But if you changed it to Gears of War Trilogy, then all the stuff that is in there already, doesn't need to be moved or deleted.

I think series can suffice instead of trilogy if it is not a trilogy

[ssp0929]

You might as well write trilogy anyway, you got nothing to lose.

So make it say Gears of War Series or Trilogy like Dan and IC3MAN said.

[ssp0929]

Yeah, trilogy sounds better though.
