I find it hysterical that videogame luminaries have found a new home to show off their new stuff via Jimmy Fallon, of all people. It’s always nice to see some of the more interesting developers talk about their craft on tv- it’s just rare to see them treated with any modicum of respect. Anyway, tonight Cliff “Don’t call me Cliffy B!” Bleszinski of Epic Games stopped by with an exclusive Gears of War 3 trailer to show off to the world. Without further ado-
Look at all that juice!
Dig the more grizzled Marcus and it will be interesting to see these new enemies, but of course since the Gears story has always been dumb as bricks (seriously, it’s one of the stupidest games around) it will be nice to see some of its set-pieces. The second one certainly had plenty of those. Bleszinski mentions a few new additions like a double-barreled shotgun and that there will be female soldiers this time around. No word on if they’ll also be comically huge.
He also mentioned that the likely release will be April 8th, 2011. Quite a ways away, but it’s nice to see that the game release schedule is starting to spread out more and more. Of course, Gears is going to sell no matter what day it’s released.

Um, I'm pretty sure that was a grizzled Dom, not Marcus. Marcus shows up without sleeves to save Dom's ass
Ah, you are right. Guess the melodramatic events of the last game hit him pretty hard.
wtf is Cloud doing in there.
I feel like I just got Jim-joled.
Simple really, Fallon's a bit of dipshit but he knows what's going on. Wouldn't be surprise if he or one of his people sought Cliff B.
Fallon will always have my grudging respect for putting Tim Schafer on network tv.
Really? It's Stupid, Dumb and Melodramatic? I love this series man, and I have to say it hits all the right notes for a quasi-horror action game. It's like an 80's Schwarzenneger film with hyperbolic action heroes, buddy elements, silly lines and loads of enemies. Asking for more might be besides the point. Anyways, good work on MCP, keep it up!
Love all the haters that seem to pop up now about this bad-ass series… calling the game bland, unorignal, and poorly told.. give me a fucking break.. it's a god damn video game.. if buy a game for a fucking emtional response more the "fuck ya", it's time you look in the mirror, and slam you pimply ass face into it… GOW kicks ass… it's brutal,… fun… fast paced…. if you want something else, that's fine, but in the end, your just a virgin ass pussy who likes to play FF with some Dido music on…
@Nick: Well, I'm glad you've found that Gears of War doesn't threaten your uncertain grasp on your masculinity. Seriously though, fun games, but people should view them with a bit more perspective. There are other games in the world besides GOW and Final Fantasy, Nick. Some of them way smarter. Therefore GOW isn't bland, it's just dumb. There are worse things to be.
I used to play Soulcalibur, while listening to Dido. What does that make me?
