No, I don't have a 360 and I wouldn't if I did 'cause I played some at a friends house and I did like it much. I just couldn't get into it despite it looking awesome.

I want to see how C. Carmine dies.....
...and that... Isn't his name "Clayton"?

So I'm guess that I'm not the only person that noticed that the Carmines follow the alphabet through the games, right?
Is it? I haven't been up to date on anything Gears. I just know there will be Carmines. So Clayton Carmine ey?

Yeah so far they've been in order
Anthony Carmine: Snipe to the head
Benjamine Carmine: Digested in a giant worm (really effed up mind you)
Clayton Carmine: HOW WILL HE DIE DUN DUUUN DUUUN

There are books? BOOKS?! More video game novels to add to my collection now.

Well I really hope so but only if he has a personality like the other Carmines. That's what I liked about them they were funny in the green horned way not at all badass.

Hopefully he can be fun and badass.

If Epic Games does fuck with our minds I will love them forever.

Was looking at the poll. "Are you going to?"

.....yes! I am so going to!


As for Gears 3, it looks pretty cool. But I need to get a new 360 (Old one from 07 finally died!), and I plan on getting the Gears 360. Same price in NZ as a normal 360 which comes with Kinect. Only the Gears ones comes with two Gears controllers instead of one black one. I have no problem with this.

Pre-ordered, so yeah. I really do believe that is should get more hype than it has now, because its a wonderful game series and the new Beast mode and Horde 2.0 look absolutely amazing. Seriously, Havent you ever wondered what it would be like to play as a Ticker??

I won't. I played the original on PC in 2007 and thought it was tedious and repetitive, on par with Kane and Lynch 2.

As far as a I recall the plot was we have to find steroids which are underground with some mole people, thus we have to plant bombs under the earth and blow them up. So we have to go find some map somewhere, but it turns out we had it all along.

I was utterly flabberghasted at how everyone else seemed to have played some kind of god of a game which was flawless in every regard. Whereas I played an utterly generic dull third person cover based shooting gallery. It weren't no Deus Ex thats for sure.

I don't care if I am in a minority here, I think it sucked and since I have seen nothing to address what I hated about the original in the second or the third I won't be touching it.

Got it on preorder baby, main reason is because Gears is fucking Amazing.
Second reason is because me and my mate are going to have a hilarious time bayonet charging people together.

I really loved the co-op so I am always going to buy it due to that and the fact that there are many violente deaths.

the books are by "Karen Traviss"... Pretty sure theres only 4 ("Anvil Gate", "Aspho Fields", "Jacinto's Remnants" and "Coalition's End") and they do a lot of backstory and explaining... Really makes you appreciate the characters a lot more!

Like for instance, I never knew that Hoffman was the one that activated the Hammer of Dawn strikes across Sera, even though he knew that his wife would die in them

Day 1 purchase. Why? All of the previous games have had AAA production value and have impressed me tremendously. And I REALLY enjoyed GoW2's multiplayer, as well as 3's beta.

Day 1 baby

I will enjoy it until the day I die. I promise to take it to the afterlife if they make a Ben Carmine character model playable for online.

Ahh thanks a ton for that. Saves me time searching for them. Off to the book store! Thanks mate.

I read the spoiler and screamed out "why did you tell me!?" even though you put up the spoiler warning lol.

Gears is one of my favorite game series of this console generation. I will be getting it at the midnight release.

I love the Gears series, own 1 & 2 for the 360 and own 1 for the PC. Sadly I've grown weary of Epic / CliffyB's crap on how they treat PC gamers. And a bit enraged on their recent announcement that they openly admit that they are planning to commit consumer fraud and are actually touting it as if they are proud. That honestly sickened me to a point where I cancelled my pre-order.
If I do break and decide that I really want to play the game, I'm definitely buying it used so Epic doesn't see a damn penny from me.

Hoffman did tell his wife not to leave the city and it was Prescott who pressed the button and had the hammer of dawn fired on the cities controlled by the locust
...but Hoffman had one of the 3 keys and the choice to not fire the Hammer, they couldn't have done it without him...

I would have gone deeper into explanation but it would have revealed to many spoilers...
