game looks unrealSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:39 AM
Going to be an extremely good game! I've got my Epic Edition pre-ordered - just waiting for September 20th. I'm also really looking forward to Coalition's End. The books have been very well written, and I would highly recommend them to any Gearhead. It'll explain the characters a lot more, and not only that, it bridges all of the games together.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:39 AM
GOTY hands down can't wait!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:41 AM
My lack of money will not stop this game leaping into my hands on release day. @2, what are these books? Sounds interesting! :DSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:45 AM
@post: I love the Faith No More adaptation of War Pigs better than the original Sabbath one. :D I know, shame on me!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:47 AM
oh jesus I cant wait for this game. So awesome.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:48 AM
Looks good can;t wait.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:49 AM
@3 GOTY will definitely be Skyrim. No doubt. I am really looking forward to this though. After playing the beta, it really seems like Epic wanted to prove themselves after the somewhat letdown of GoW2. This looks like it could do just that.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:51 AM
I dont wat ur on about sayin stole the show at half time, battlefield made mw3 look like it was made in 2007! Wait a minute...Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:58 AM
@9 I have no idea what you'r talking about.OT:I have never played Gears online,so i'll give this a shot.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:00 AM
@#9 - I said Gears stole the show...Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:01 AM
No More War Pigs have the poweeeeer! Hand of God has struck the hour!!!!! HELL YEAH!, AWESOME TRAILER!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:03 AM
I had to watch that trailer over 10 times, but I never got bored of it. My favorite one is still the Gears 2 trailerSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:06 AM
how come alot of people hate comment # 2? i dont see anything wrong with what he said.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:09 AM
Do we have some Gears hater around here thumbing down everyone? Jesus, get a life!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:09 AM
All over it like a rash. Also loving the kid giving the thumbs down to every pro-Gears comment. Butt hurt from a past Lancer related incident maybe...?Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:15 AM
Wasn't expecting the trailer to be anything like this. Gears is supposed to have dark and slow cinematics. Not action-packed and fast-paced. Good trailer either way. Just not for Gears.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:18 AM
Gears 3 will shine in the year of the 3'sSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:20 AM
Trailer was great, looking forward to the campaign so much :D Even though I'm more of a story player, I think I'll be spending a good chunk of time on the MP too :p (playing as Locust you say?!) Side note: To whoever was voting down all the comments then grow up, case in point I voted back up all the comments that were on minus 1, there's an angry fanboy hiding somewhere!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:20 AM
Oh. My. God. My pants? Creamed. I know I'm just beating a dead horse when I say this, but I just cannot wait. Talk about a pointless comment XDSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:21 AM
Looks absolutely amazing. They are really pulling out all the stops for this one.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:22 AM
Indeed the music is the icing on the cake. Iommi FTW ! And as expected the game seems simply amazing.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:33 AM
I may be wrong, but do the Hammerbursts and Lancers mark the very first Avatar Guns? I thought that Microsoft had some ban on weapons since no other game has ever had them, anyone know?Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:38 AM
This looks awesome! I can't wait to get it! :D I hope it gets GOTY!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:39 AM
@4 the books are REALLY good definitely want to pick them up if your a Gearhead...Aspho Fields, Jacinto's Remnant and Anvil's Gate are the titles of the three out @23 Yeah Microsoft has a ban on Gun props but it was amended for these is what I saw on Twitter last night OT: Amazing trailer, thought it would be a little longer thoughSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:49 AM
Gears 1 - Mad World and Gears 3 - Ashes to Ashes trailers are hands down best trailers in video game history. There is so much passion and shows the fight and struggle that will come to an end in the third installment. Gears Forever!!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:58 AM
26 - Ashes to Ashes was a great trailer... but I still think Reach's "Deliver Hope" edges it out.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 12:04 PM
@9 I completely agree. I am not excited for MW3 at all. Battlefield 3 though... WOW! I cannot wait to get my hands on that game. I'm still most excited about Gears 3 though.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 12:05 PM
for those who haven't read the books you won't be disapointed. Karen Traviss is a pretty good writer, she's also done alot of the star wars books. I've yet to read Anvil's gate but i'll have it read before gears 3 is out.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 12:19 PM
Awesome trailer, why didn't you use my video, I should hurt you.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 12:29 PM
Good song.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 12:41 PM
Looks like its going to be awesome.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:00 PM
good trailer, but I think the Mad World trailer for GoW1 was the best. Another one of the best trailers ever made imo was the one for Assassin's Creed that used the UNKLE song Lonely SoulsSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:03 PM
Cool guys Don't wear helmetsSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:30 PM
Ozzy + Gears 3 = Epic SexynessSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:36 PM
I thought they said avatars would never have weapons about time they realised not everyone who plays these games is an impressionable 12 year old! OT I seriously cannot wait for this its gonna be an amazing climax to the story and marcus and the guys/girls have never looked better!!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:36 PM
So Microsoft now allow guns finally ? The hammy item looks nicer the chainsaw is very nice but the saw is too fat !Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:39 PM
Just bought the Golden Hammerburst...I am such a tool!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:39 PM
Were those baby corpsers? I want to play this game so bad. I hope the campign is better than the 2nd one. I still think 1's was better though. Raam=epic, skorge=tool. Random CliffyB tweets: skorge is dead, dizzy is not. Myrrah is not marcus' mom.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 01:57 PM
That trailer was immense. In my opinion, GOTY, yes, even over skyrim.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 02:03 PM
@36, That's what I was thinking. Hopefully this means I can buy my avatar an M16 in the near future. Although I have a feeling that the only reason these Gears guns got the green light is because they're fictional guns.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 02:18 PM
Glad to see weapons (other than lightsabers and pimp canes) making it to the avatar marketplace. Apparently I'm the only one disappointed by this trailer. Some of the scenes were neat, but I just didn't find the flow of it very impressive. Probably had to do with the song honestly. This can't touch the Gears 1 Mad World trailer. I think Gears 3 will be in the top 3 for GotY, but definately doesn't have my vote. I'd say Skyrim, AC:R, then Gears 3 in my opinion. But then again, that's only because Mass Effect was pushed back. Otherwise it would win hands down. Still looking extremely forward to this game, so don't get me wrong. Already have my Epic edition AND Retro lancer ordered.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 02:19 PM
@28 and @9 I don't really get why you people have to bring Battlefield and COD into everything, but whatever. Game looks shweet! They Couldn't have chose a better song :P Still waiting to pre-order, got no monies at the moment as got a festival round the corner, but after that I'll be on it :DSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 02:42 PM
Sorry #43 dint mean to offend, ive pre-ordered all 3 and jus wanted to discuss my opinion on em =PSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 02:44 PM
EPICSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 03:00 PM
Disappointed that it's not a sad/dramatic trailer like the previous two games but it was still a very kick ass trailer!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 03:03 PM
@46 they can't ALL be sad/dramatic. That's why there was the Ashes to Ashes trailer.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 03:17 PM
@44 It's cool then dude, so long as you're not doing it just for the sake of fan-boying :PSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 04:13 PM
They should play War Pigs during one of the flying boss battlesSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 04:24 PM
"LETS FINISH IT!" - FENIX IS THE FUCKING BEST HERO - ON video Games EVER! - Cant wait for a prequel game after no.3 lol!!!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 04:38 PM
@ 25 - thanks a lot, looking them up now! Can't stop watching this video.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 04:56 PM
Mmh, this trailer really didn't tickle me at all. The music is great, but we don't learn anything about the campaign or anything relevant about the story - except that Marcus' dad is involved, but that was a no-brainer after the events of Gears 2. I'm also missing any "mood" in this trailer, basically they are just blowing shit up. The campaign-trailers for Gears2 were definitely better.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 05:44 PM
1 epic edition for me... the game literally fucks any other game that came out this year... yeah!!!!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 06:28 PM
Awesome!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 07:04 PM
Im just waiting for Unwilling Shadow to troll on this page.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 07:15 PM
Gonna be a good gameSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 08:18 PM
Absolutely EPIC trailer with some great Sabbath in there that worked well. Gears made the 80's music work better than Black Ops if you ask me! Can't Wait!Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 08:30 PM
Epic trailer, War pigs...Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 08:31 PM
Does this mean that props such as knives and guns are allowed now because i would love a Machete to go with my Hockey Mask and maybe a Kitchen Knife to go with my Scream(Ghostface Killer) costume.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 08:34 PM
@39 Those crawling things are not baby corpsers they are a new breed from the Lambent and they are apparently first seen in the first level on the battleship/floating citySunday, May 29, 2011 @ 09:22 PM
this game is going to be epicSunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:13 PM
Hey Epic, let's have General RAAM as a playable character. That would appease me.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 10:24 PM
Looks amazing.Sunday, May 29, 2011 @ 11:01 PM
Wow berserker pet is going to be my first piece of avatar clothing ever purchasedMonday, May 30, 2011 @ 12:24 AM
this does look amazing but by no means will it get game of the year should EA release assassin's creed revelations, big guns Vs an amazingly well written story, i know what i'd rather, now hardcore gears of war fans, proceed with the thumbs down :PMonday, May 30, 2011 @ 12:55 AM
@65 Are you serious? retarded? or live under a rock?Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 02:44 AM
Awesome trailer, and now I can finally represent my favorite franchise of all time with a Lancer for my avatar since the replica one is to expensive to buy for the moment. September 20 can't possibly get here any sooner than I would like.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 03:06 AM
I am possibly preordering the Limited Edition for this.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 03:10 AM
Ok i have had a thought decided i am getting the Limited Edition for £60Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 03:14 AM
Haven't Cole's Thrashball uniform, and especially the Ticker, Carmine gear, and a bunch of that other stuff been out for a while now? Only brand new stuff is Kantus gear, Queen gear, and the props aside from the Ticker.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 04:46 AM
@65-since when did EA start doing the Assassins Creed series? Last time I checked it was Ubisoft. OT: this trailer is making me want this game more. This will definetly be one of my top picks for GoTY. I think this take will get a few GoTY awards, but there is too many strong contenders this year up for the major GoTY awards like Skyrim, LA Noire, Arkham City, and Portal 2.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 05:43 AM
That was a good trailer because of the music matching with the scenes.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 06:07 AM
I actually thought this trailer was pretty rubbish, but i know the game will be good.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 06:17 AM
Can't wait for this game! I still think the Gears mad world trailer was the best though. Im tempted to buy the avatar items too, which i never thought I would say!Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 06:17 AM
Change of plan Limited Edition looks rubbish i am just getting the standard edition.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 08:42 AM
To be honest i didn't really like this trailer, gears campaign never really got to me after the first few levels of gears 1. The multiplayer side on the other hand, i can't wait for that!Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 10:10 AM
Ahhh Black Sabbath, how I love thee. It's the campaign I'm after. This just made me drool.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 11:04 AM
Craaaaaap I just realized I'll be getting Tales of Xillia around the same time... I hate having two games to play at once!Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 01:34 PM
*sigh* Another game trailer with 99% cut scenes. Why are companies afraid to show gameplay? Here come the "thumbs down" votes.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 02:33 PM
the trailer looks "raw", can't wait for this game.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 05:30 PM
@65 Assassin's Creed for GOTY LMAO, with this years major games like Gears, Skyrim, Battlefield 3, and MW3 good luck with that...Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 05:43 PM
@65 I think it's funny that you're obviously an Assassin's Creed fanboy but you don't even know what company makes it. Ubisoft, NOT EA. Also, AC:R will not get a GoTY award from anyone. Sorry.Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 06:31 PM
Epic edition pre-ordered for me ! can't wait to play the campaign 4 players :)Monday, May 30, 2011 @ 07:54 PM
@1 I see what you did thereMonday, May 30, 2011 @ 08:30 PM
this is going to be best Gears to ever..can't waitMonday, May 30, 2011 @ 10:53 PM
whoops, my mistake, it was ubisoft, now i feel like a retard, but my opinion stands, revelations will own gears 3, just like all the dumbshits waiting for mw3, this game is going to get hyped right the fuck up then 6 monthes after its release its going to be forgotten, fair bet i'd say..Tuesday, May 31, 2011 @ 03:54 AM
@86, You are such a tool. Revelations will be great, sure. But you haven't even seen gameplay footage. Not even a proper trailer! It will be awesome like the rest of the Assassin games but never GOTY. And btw, Gears 3 will be played for years and not forgotten so easly. Altho I didn't really liked the beta, a lot of people did. Let's talk again when AC3 is coming out. OT: Shit, just remembered Dizzy. Hopefully we see his face in GoW3..alive.Tuesday, May 31, 2011 @ 09:28 PM
well nobody expected assassin's creed 2 to make game of the year and look what history tells us, i just dont really see the apeal of GOW, sure it looks pretty, well the second one did, but all it really has going for it is the big guns and small brains, it has a generic story line and one dimensional characters, but i can see its fun, which is why we play video games in the first place. You make a good point though, we haven't seen any gameplay or a proper trailer, but i'm going along the lines of whats come before, AC being repetitive but differant, AC;2 dumping the repetetivness, and AC; Brotherhood perfecting what problems the other two had. i really do think AC;3 will be in the running for goty, as will i'm sure GOW, but time will tell when it comes wont we.Thursday, June 02, 2011 @ 11:21 AM
I didn't think it was in tandem with other trailers. Especially since it was not even CGI, so I am still hoping for something better. Still, it was a nice reveal:-)Sunday, June 05, 2011 @ 11:06 AM
man i cant wait for this gameSunday, June 05, 2011 @ 11:55 AM
This looks beautiful... i honestly can not wait for this to release! I still play Gears 2 :D

Although Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 might have stole the limelight at half time of the Champions League final last night between Barcelona and Manchester United, it was Gears of War 3’s campaign reveal trailer that truly stole the show though.
Airing after the full-time whistle and with an iconic backing track, plenty of action and many awesome moments, Epic and Microsoft have carved out another trailer of epic proportions. Now, we know that every Gears of War game has one of those truly memorable trailers – Gears of War 1 with Mad World; and Gears of War 2 with DeVotchka – but for me, this one blows those two out the water. I mean, come on... War Pigs!! You can’t beat a bit of Black Sabbath... who’s with me!?
Give it a watch in glorious HD. You won't regret it.
In other Gears news, Steven (AKA ViperxSniper) just sent us a link to a whole host of cool looking Gears of War 3 avatar gear as well, including a pet Ticker, Thrashball Cole uniforms, Carmine gear, a pet Berserker, Kantus gear, gold Lancers, gold Hammerbursts and more. Check them all out here. Cheers Steven.
