has anyone else noticed that pheonex is just reaper from ut3 with a slightly smaller gun

Reaper: http://www.acliffhanger.com/ut3/reaper_portrait.png
Phonex: http://www.gameguru.in/images/marcus-fenix-gears-of-war-1.jpg

I mean they could have at least changed the beard

they even sound the same (although i did check its not he same voice actor)

and b4 the fanboys dust of their soap boxes reaper has existed as a character since b4 gears or 360 for that matter existed

Yup. Grizzled space marines look the same. Although I concede they do look rather too similar for it to be completely coincidence, but they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I don't see any similarities, other than they're both HUGE.

Yes, I think almost everyone that has played both Gears of War and UT3 noticed that.

Marcus Phoenix = Reaper.
Akasha (Final Boss UT3 Storyline) = Locust Queen.

To be honest I think Epic made a big faily fail with UT3 when they made it. If I still had UT2004 I'd play that instead.

Who the fuck are Pheonix and Reaper?
Seriously.
You're Reaper. You feeling OK? How many fingers am I holding up?

Edit: Really though, Fenix is from Gears of War 1/2 and Reaper is from some Unreal Tournament game(s).

Marcus Fenix (He's spelt the name wrong, even though its in the link)... Gears of War, pride of the 360... I don't even own a 360 and I know that. Know idea about Reaper though.

Fenix I may have recognized.
Phoenix could be anyone.
It could even be you.
No no, I'm needausername, at least by day, by night I'm a humble break dancing cat.

Reaper is the main character in Unreal Tournament 3. In the main campaign anyways.

What they did for Gears was, they took Reaper, gave his beard to Dom, his goggles to Baird, and what was left became Marcus.
