Yeah that got leaked a while ago. He was suppose to announce this on Friday when he was gonna be on the show but got delayed till today. Someone at Microsoft didn't get the message though as they posted "Gears of War 3 This July!" or whatever as an ad on Xbox Live. Good to know it is confirmed for sure though.

It looked pretty good imo, cool to see a female gear, so I take it the bearded guy was Dom ? I had thought they would show Bullet Storm or whatever its called as well, oh well. Also, anyone happen to know the name of the song from the trailer ?

After watching the trailer it seems like the Gears series should be longer than a trilogy. Unless, they never planned on making it just a trilogy.

Well it is using something like Unreal Engine 3.2 or some such. Not sure if that would be its official name, but its the 2nd rendition of the engine I believe so thats what I call it.

I ment it looks like the characters were re-modeled. Baird, Cole, and Dom look really odd.

Yeah Dom definitely, he looked aged somewhat, at least to me. I am curious to see who this female Gear is though.

Why, women cant be soldiers? I would expect that there would be women soldiers, especially in an end of the world scenario. eh I'm not a big fan of non gameplay trailers, I prefer a mixture of cinematics and gameplay. But it does look like Dom went into crazy guy mode after Gears 2, I don't think he is older, he just looks disheveled. He likely stopped caring after finding his wife, I wonder if they will do the whole suicidal cliche. I still don't get why this was done on Fallon.

Not really sure if any of you have read either of the two Gears novels but there was a an older (middle aged I believe) female gear in the first novel. So I guess it really does not surprise me that they would add one (possibly others ?) to Gears 3.

Marketing. Though you would think for that "casual hardcore" you would advertise the game closer to the actual release. I doubt the majority of Fallon watching peoples are on forums discussing the trailer :P

That said, until I hear a confirmation of a 4 player coop campaign, I will not be satisfied.

That's the point, is Fallon's audience known for being that 18-35yr old male that Gears is aimed at? Or is this just one of those routines where they want just anyone to see it like the Dante's Inferno superbowl ad.

they did it on Jimmy Fallon because when he took over the time slot from Conan he stated he was a huge gamer and declared that he would treat games just like movies and tv and have guest's from the gaming industry and deliver game news.

onto the trailer, i thought it was ok, Dom looks rough and yea you can tell their gonna do the whole suicidal doesnt care anymore because he has nothing to lose thing, the female Cog looked a little like Anya or however you spell that, and it's nice to see there will be both old locust and the emolsion mutated locust's aswell, the double barrel shotgun looks like you would expect it to, wonder how it's gonna work in multiplayer, and i didnt recognize the weapon dom was running with and was givin by the female Cog but hopefully there are a few more new weapons.
