MS Can't Wait for Gears of War 3 Reveal

Ok, so the surprise got ruined thanks to the xbox live monkeys not getting their memo on time that Cliffy B appearance on Jimmy Fallon was rescheduled for Monday. Now we know that Microsoft is obviously planning (or was since the leak ) all this Gears of War 3 TV announcement . The exact same day that designer Cliff Bleszinski was supposed to appear and rock everyone's socks with his sick new game a little oops went online on the Xbox Live dashboard celebrating the Gears of War 3 announcement and letting us know that Microsoft is indeed driving the hype train.

[mjolliffe]

He said he wants to watch Cliff rather than Gears 3 :P And they would be excited because it'll be exclusively on their platforms :)

I'm certainly looking forward to it, and I'm glad I'll be home on Monday to watch it!

[movements]

Exciting times indeed!

[AAACE5]

I don't think they need to put much hype into it! I mean, people will buy it just because. Hell, I already plan on buying it and I don't know anything about it yet! I liked the past ones and it seems like they had enough time to make significant changes to it so i'm sold already.

I imagine Ps3 owners feel the same way about Killzone 3 am I right?

Anyway, can't wait to see an official vid or something.

[WhittO]

Looking forward to seeing it.

Has ALOT of competition to stand against so it will have to "Bring It".

When you think how many great games we have now compared to when the first Gears launched haha, might aswell have been a different generation! lol

[Lord Vader]

Wonder if BulletStorm is going to be Multiplat or exclusive... that game sounds really cool (in the Newest Game Informer)

[OpenGL]

I already own all 3 previous Gears of War releases(Gears 1 & 2 on 360 and Gears 1 on PC), so I'll probably end up buying this. Right now I'm not that excited, but I imagine when they actually start showing the game my excitement will grow.

[captain-obvious]

i still wonder why its not on E3
why the hell did they reveal it at some show and NOT E3 ??

it would be alot better if it was on E3

[NateNater]

Because they got too excited and couldn't wait that long?

[van-essa]

Because their E3 press conference[s] is already crowded as it is and they probably have other "AAA" softwares, prjects left to announce at E3.

[TROLL EATER]

neither can I

[Inside_out]

I can't wait for the reveal...Gears set the bar this gen and was one of the first blockbusters this gen...While Sony was talking, Gears was blowing everyone away...KZ3 is suppose to make an appearance this yr...Hmmm...should be interesting...As for ALL the other shooters as well as KZ remember this...When the cats away, the mice will play....Setting the PVR for Monday, gotta see this on the big screen live....

[Lord Vader]

Good News: BulletStorm is going to be Multi !

[SpaceSquirrel]

I wonder how much will they show?

[Cevapi88]

fix the bugs, online and glitches of the 2nd and GeoW3 will be a major success...improve upon the story and give a grand finale at the end....

diverse enemies and some awesome set pieces will set it apart from other TP shooters

my two cents...i hope the game does end up doing well...it should be a fitting conclusion to the series

[MmaFanQc]

...kinda obvious since MS have only 5-6 games.

[Zero 007]

and i cant wait too watch FoolStation Kids sells FS3 soon ;)
so
See you all on Xbox Live ---> SOON :)

BOOM on the way.. keep eyes open Fools

[mrv321]

You would see me on xbox live if I was willing to throw money at P2P games, luckily I get dedicated servers for free.

[Assassin Creed]

lol an Arabic (UAE) bot

[xaviertooth]

because there is no other games to expect except disappointing games like splinter cell which is 576p

[midgard227]

hopefully they make the story actually somewhat good, improve the acting, make more than 6 players online, wait fix online in general, make a better cover system, i hate feeling stuck to walls like they r humping it.

hopefully they add more than just meat shields because really, the first one wasnt all that and the 2nd one was super bad.

AND PLZ PLZ a real boss fight this time, the last 2 games boss fights were so anti climactic. really bad,

honestly i think people only like it for the blood and because its exclusive, no other reason

[Boody-Bandit]

I was so disappointed with Gears 2. When the credits rolled in the single player campaign I was like "WTF, that's it?" Then I took it online and couldn't believe how long it took to get into a game. When you did the lag was unplayable at times and you couldn't quit a game without going back to your dashboard and only to take a huge hit in your ranking.

I want Epic to take it back to the way Gears of War was set up for online play. Dedicated servers would be sweet too but I know that wont happen. I am a Gears fan and not some hater spreading FUD. Gears 2 was a step in the wrong direction and dedicated servers couldn't hurt.

@below hamoor
Yes because it obviously needs it. Anyone that doesn't have a Gears of War tattoo knows the game has seriously issues online and lag is one of it's biggest problems. Do you know a thing about Epic and their online code? I use to be a mainstream PC gamer. The group I hung with had 3 dedicated computers running 3 to four different games at any given time (Quake 2, 3, Counter Strike and Unreal Tournament).

Guess which one was the most taxing? Unreal.
The code Epic uses never changed. The game needs more bandwidth because P2P just doesn't cut it. Sorry you don't understand that and take offense to it.

[hamoor]

first its 10 player online not 6
And why you want more than that?
This kind of games doesn't need 12vs12 to be good
Even uncharted 2 is 5 vs 5 but no one complains
On topic
I wish they release a beta for MP because the online in gears 2 is crap before the patches

[hamoor]

dedicated servers for 10 players online???

[KingKionic]

Ha...aaron green berg tweet is spot on .

Oh yeah forgot to add :

I cant wait for cliffy b`s announcement .

[GrandDragon]

They want to get this piece of sh1t off their minds so they can focus on fixing the RROD.

[Akagi]

Expect a crazy, expensive marketing sceme.

[DelbertGrady]

And expect them to get more than twice the money back.

Me? I expect a crazy, fantastic game :)

[El_Colombiano]

I'm sorry to hear that Soda.

[IHateYouFanboys]

and expect Gears 3 to sell more copies in its first 2 days than pretty much every PS3 exclusive sells in 2 years.

[xaviertooth]

and 360 fans have to wait until april 2011 to play gears of war 3 its like eternity if you ask me while ps3 fans have been playing AAA EXCLUSIVES month after month after month since 2008

[GrandDragon]

All we need is KZ3 and that's it! it's all over for the 3sh1ty.

[Zero 007]

white kngiht

MAG

Yakuza 3

Heavy Buttons

only Glitch of war III AAA title for FS3 this year loool

[mrdxpr2]

just like a tard to call games flops when they havent even played ... thats why sr u are not a gamer and just a ret@rd.... mag not a floop its a good game and ive played it and i know what it has.. white knight also a good game.. heavy rain that is another great AAA with new features that have me wanting more cuase its not a damn fps.. and GOW u serious that is the best game in any console for me i havent liked a game that much since uncharted 1... soo yeah goo play your kiddy games and shut up... and admit games a good dont start bashing them if u havent played them

[the-warriors]

if you form arabian gulf just ask me

uncharted 1 sucks ba**** boring gameplay

Gears of war > All

[Hands Up For Games]

Im just interested in the game, simple as that. Ive really enjoyed both Gears 1 & 2 (Campaign & Co Op are brilliant!) and im just looing forward to seeing where Cliff is going to set the game, those forrest scenes from GDC did look pretty cool!

[dkgshiz]

Yep.

[IHateYouFanboys]

no it doesnt, it just needs a region filter from day 1.

i gave up playing Gears 2 online after maybe 6 months because i live in australia, and would just constantly get matched with Americans and have literally 2-3 seconds lag. then they brought in the region filter, and all was looking peachy...........until they announced that Australia will not get the region filter, as 'not enough people play it in Australia'! did they stop to think WHY noone was playing it in Australia!?!?! because we were sick of the lag!!! the region filter would fix this, and i can say with 100% certainty that i would be playing it still to this day if we got the region filter, as would 50% of my friends list.

if there is no region filter in Gears 3, and more importantly if its not turned on for Australia, i will not be buying Gears 3. i will 'buy' it from EB, finish the single player, then take it back within 7 days for a full refund.

[dirthurts]

If it's going to be on the 360 or the next gen console. They stated long long ago that the next game would be next gen...but you never know.

[IHateYouFanboys]

they announced it on the dashboard of the 360, and its coming out in april 2011........if there was a new xbox coming out before then, we'd know about it. its on the 360.

what they actually stated, but what most people chose to disregard for one reason or another, was that IF gears of war 3 was using Unreal Engine 4 that it would be on the next generation of consoles (since thats what UE4 is being made for), but if it was using Unreal Engine 3 again it would be on the 360.

[kevin360uk]

please get rid of the silly unrealisitic forward/backward/sideways rolls, get some realism going with some crouching/go prone stances. would be nice to see sniper no scopes gone too

[iFLOWLIKEWATER]

I hope Epic doesn't listen or read comments like this and think its a good idea. The term "not a good idea" comes to mind.

[DARK WITNESS]

if you want real, try some with a more real theme...

[frankymv]

Enjoy Gears 3 xbox owners....I envy you big time with this one!! I'm sure it will be amazing!

[MR LOOKINGBILL]

definitely looking foward to tomorrow nights unveiling. I definitely have an intrest in BulletStorm.....I see the mods are doing an excellent job getting rid of those pesky ps3 trolls.

[AliTheBrit19]

It's already kind of confirmed for April 2011 isnt it?

Horde was incredibly fun on Gears 2 :)

[keysy420]

gears is great but after playing uncharted they need a new engine because that clunky movement system isnt going to work for me. so im not buying it unless someone shows it too me and its smooth and flawless. remember ho=w gear 2 was some fatalatiy update and a few levels. this games need a over haul and if it doesnt get it it will just be mediocore.

[spektical]

gears of war has some shoes to fit into uncharted2. -fixed

[Karum]

Looking forward to seeing some of Gears 3. Based on past games I'm assuming we can expect this to be releasing before Xmas this year, which is awesome.

[NeutralGamer]

Oh man I love the video game industry... /s

Aaron Greenberg says to Cliffy that he can't wait to see him on TV and the headline of this article gets tweaked to: "MS Can't Wait for Gears of War 3 Reveal"...

[Mo0eY]

M$ is probably excited because it's their first REAL exclusive since Halo Wars. You know, the game that came out last year... the game that lost its stats. Anyone seen them?

[CountDracula]

Anyone?

[GigaGaia]

if they can't wait for it, why don't they reveal it now. Seriously, what a bunch of douchebags.

[aviator189]

Just because they don't reveal the game 4 days earlier makes them douchebags? Well, it's probably epic's call, not microsoft's. Cliffy B probably wants to unveil it himself on the fallon show, so I think everyone can wait until monday.

[spooky205]

Tacking on a multiplayer feature on your game does not make a measly 8 hour campaign justifiable when the multiplayer feature is broken. Second, your game loses alot of its epicness when you have underwhelmly pathetic final boss battle (gears of war 2 namely). Aside from that all epic games and MS have to do is yell cha-ching! Gears of War 3 will not sell systems however it will sell xbox live subcriptions. This is not really news. Thats like me stating i cant wait to cash my paycheck. Regardless i would buy another gears title seeing as i enjoyed both playing co-op with my brother.

[aviator189]

the multiplayer definitely needs fixing. If they stick with the same old multiplayer, that'll suck. But I doubt that.

[IHateYouFanboys]

so what do you say to all the 8 hour or LESS single player only games like Uncharted 1 and 2, God of War 3, etc etc?

[spooky205]

are longer than 8 hours. If you had played them then you would know. But even if they were only 8 hours there is alot of unlockables in temrs of cheats, costumes, trials, flip world, various difficulty settings, and weapons. All gears had was find some cog tags and multiplayer, broken multiplayer mind you that everyone was praising yet i had a hard time getting into a decent match despite my really good internet speed. so your attempt to troll has failed. You probably dont even own a ps3 based on what i have seen with such idiotic comments spewing left and right out of you.

[Halo3 MLG Pro]

Gamethirst = sony fanboy site.

Nuff said.

[MetalFreakMike]

I like the first two, so this game will fit nicely into my collection. I just hope that if this is the last one then they wrap it up in a good way and not some half a$$ed way.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Well I can't wait to play it so bring it on!!!!

[ironmonkey]

mehhhhhh
