EdgeEdge says a source has put a pin in April 2011 as the release window for the third entry in Epic's series -- and we should expect the first teaser trailer next month, on April 8, with a full-on reveal at E3 in June.
"Microsoft's keen to avoid a clash with Halo: Reach and wants Natal to own Christmas," alleges Edge's source. "That's why we won't be seeing Gears Of War 3 until next year, but expect a major marketing push ahead of its release."
Τι να πει καποιος? Ως συνηθως υποθετω οτι θα ντεμπουταρει καποια νεα εκδοση της UT οπως και τα προηγουμενα δυο και θα εχει παλι τρελο budget. Βαλε και τον CliffyB στην εξισωση...Απλα και με ευκολια το καλυτερο action semi-TPS της γενιας.* Rod confirmed 4 Player Co-Op in the Gears IRC, with 4 unique characters. Rod confirmed that co-op includes Marcus, Dom, Cole, Baird and a "variety of other characters"
Story
* Set 18 months after Gears of War 2, and after the fourth Gears of War book
* The location shown in the "Ashes to Ashes" trailer is a location nicknamed 'Char', where the remains of victims from the Hammer of Dawn strikes are heavily present.
Weapons
* The Pendulum Lancer is in Gears of War 3
* A Double Barrelled Shotgun was spotted in the Ashes to Ashes trailer.
Characters
* Dom is now heavily bearded. According to Rod, this is due to his problems dealing with the loss of his wife.

Enemies
* Lambent Locust: These enemies mutate and transform as you fight them.
Ούτε με σφαίρες. Η παρούσα γενιά έχει πολύ μέλλον μπροστά της, έχουμε και "κρίση"...Aardvark είπε:Mακαρι να ειναι το τελευταιο και με αυτο να κλεισει η αυλαια του 360,θελουμε 720!!
So here is the summary of the interview:
-Joe Graf will be the lead coder (AKA the dude who did the netcode for Gears 1 and 2)
-Gears 3 will answer most question in Gear 2
-Epic realized how much people loved the shotgun so they will allow users to use the shotgun as much as they want in addition to adding a new sawed-off double barrel shotgun which will be very powerful which gib multiple enemies at once but it'll take longer time to reload and the range is shorter.
-Pendulum lancer, which kicks like a mule when it fires also has a large blade in the end of it.
-Epic is continuing to refine the cover system to make the best in the industry
-New executions while also encouraging player to use it more in multiplayer.
-A new move where if you jump out of cover you can kick enemy in the face
-The immulsion (Energy that powers the planet) transforms creatures to spread out mutations anytime or have effect after they die by turning them into different thing or exploding like the wretches in Gears 1
-18 month later in Gears 3 no one knows where the majority locusts are, so they are dealing with lambent threat
-Karen Traviss will be writing Gears 3
-Anya will be in battle kicking ass with Delta squad
-COG has fallen and everyone is stranded
-Epic will be bringing back old maps that weren't in Gears 2
-Cliff didn't say if there will be a Beta or not but instead kept talking about how they are still supporting Gears 2 with TU
-When asked about lag Cliff said that they're looking into number of things to improve the experience one of them is the region filter and also they want players to play with friends and stick together in a party.
-4 layer Co-op in story mode confirmed
-Some art in the game player will not play with Marcus and Dom but with another squad.
-UE3 will have much better lighting and color depth
-"Its going to be the most fun, Best told story told in Gears universe, Best looking and most refined gears experience to date"
Το βλεπω καθαρα ως marketing και επισης πιστευω οτι θελει να δωσει χρονο στο kinect.Αλλα για μενα ειναι αδικαιολογητοι.Wally είπε:Εγω θα ελεγα οτι επειδη δεν ειναι ξακαθαρη, απο την 343, η ημερομηνια κυκλοφοριας του Halo4, αναγκαζονται να εξαγγειλουν τον megaton τιτλο του Σεπτεμβρη οπως οφειλουν. Ειναι παραδοσιακη τακτικη της MS να ξεκαθαριζει την major φθινοπωρινη κυκλοφορια πριν το τελος του ετους.
