I was surfing a bit on the internet and i came across a couple articles when i typed in gears of war 3, i stepped onto a german one which translated basically says that the people at EPIC Games are already in the production for Gears of War 3, the game engine will be worked over in a lot of details, will contain a co-op for up to 5 people and that they already have set a date to Fall 2010.

The last thing it says is that the game will be the last and ends in a trilogy.

I do not know if this is true but might aswell search the net for a bit of info if you can =) This article was made in december 08 so there might be more information to it now.

No official announcement but given the sales of the first two and the storyline threads not tied up, it seems impossible for there NOT to be a sequel.

There's a lot of rumors floating around, including a recent one that says there will be female COGs in the next game. I'm almost sure we'll be seeing this game in polished form by E3 2010.

of course its coming probably holiday season in 2010 that would be a good time because gears 2 would have had a 2 year run by then nd we havent heard anything about yet but i wouldnt be suprised if the beefed up co op to at least 4 people.

2010 definitely. All I've heard so far is that it will have RPG elements as Cliff believes that is the future of shooters. And it will feature female COG's.

Hmm. I also just read about that female thing. IGN has made a profile for it atm, so personally i hope there will be a gears 3 but im prepared to be disapointed if they dont. The ign thing doesnt have a lot of info though, sadly. Found a tiny bit on GameSpy too. Guess we have to wait and see =P

There will definitely be a sequel, Cliff has been talking about elements he'd like to add...isn't that a confirmation in itself? Plus Gears was always listed as a trilogy, so the question isn't IF, but WHEN.

And also, when you beat the game. Dizzy at the end say's " what have you done" or something along those lines. So, it's pretty obvious that GoW3 is coming out. But, what they need to do is fix the lag the GoW 2 had. Fix the "host" issue and add in some dedicated servers or something. Or if not, beef up the shotty so people have a chance when fighting host.

I can't wait to see what they are going to do with it. Horde was great now they can focus on adding to it, tying up the story will be tough, and even though I'm awesome at the dirty shotgunning ways of multiplayer...I wouldn't mind seeing it get a facelift. Speaking of "boom" take it out of multiplayer! :) A monkey could get kills with that thing.

That's not Dizzy it's Fenix's dad.#

People were saying Gears 2 was going to have 4 player co-op but Cliffy B saidwhy it won't, people were saying there was going to be female Cog soldiers but they didn't and NEVER will at least won't be playable, these are ALL rumor's Gear's 3 will definatly be made, 2010 is my guess.

when gears of war 1 first came out epic said they could see the series being more then just a trilogy so if that was their mindset after only the first one there will def. be a 3rd one a 4th one maybe a 5th?

Gears 2 just came out last year. Don't expect 3 too soon. Of course there will be another Gears, but when is the question. Thinking about it and maybe even qorking on it right now isn't too far fetched. These games do require quite a bit of time to develop. I guess it could be late next year if Epic continues that Two year cyclethey talked about for Gears 2 or they could actually learn something from the last game and actually play test the next one.

I'm sure there'll be a Gears 3 eventually. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if they made more Gears shooters than just the trilogy. There'll be spinoffs and so forth, like Halo and pretty much every other big shooter franchise.

If they wanted to make a Gears RTS, they'd have to invent a lot of units. There's a definite paucity of vehicles in Gears compared to Halo.

mitu123

If I know how simple the Carmine's first names are, the 3rd Carmine will be something like Cameron or Caesar Carmine. Think about it.

Anthony Carmine

Ben Carmine

Cameron Carmine?

Definitely, Epic Games would be stupid not to. I don't believe that this is the end, as with Halo there's probably going to be a few prequels.

Well if the new book, which is based after the sinking of Jacinto, is anything to go by there'll not be a Gears 3 or if there is it will be verry different to the first two.

Switzerland doesnt sell comics *suchs as spiderman and all those marvels and stuff* so i doubt that gears would be here too. Movie? When will that come out? I would enjoy prequals though.

Ok, im going to spoil this for you so please look away now if you don't wanna know the fate of Gears of War... In the new Gears Book, the CoG have been searching for a place to rest since the flooding of Jacinto, the find an old base from the Pendulam(sp?) Wars, and wait there, when the last pockets of Locust have regrouped and lead an all out assult on the base, but they loose been compleatly whipped out, the CoG then find out about an island that the Locust where unable to burrow under and go to live there, but when there they find some stranded who are all angry with the CoG and then a war for this new land breakes out between the CoG and the Stranded.

I don't think it'll be Gears 3. I'm fairly sure I heard (might be a rumour) that CliffyB won't be releasing Gears 3 until the next generation of consoles. Therefore I'm inclined to believe it'll be a Gears prequel of some sort. There's even two or three females COGs in the book Aspho Fields so I wouldn't be suprised if it was based around that. Or E-Day.

Their will most definetly be a 3rd and I have to say 5 person co-op would be pretty cool. I always joke around and say that the gears series will go on as long as their are Carmines to kill off.

Gears 3 is going to happen, but don't hold your hopes up for a 2010 release. EPIC will probably want to experiment and polish the game throughly to avoid a Gears 2 esque release. And MS will probably not want to flood the 2010 holidays. Halo Reach, Fable 3, Crackdown 2 (maybe), and Natal with all of its games and dashboard updates should be enough major exculsives in that period. They'll hold Gears back for 2011. But who knows, we may get a public beta in 2010....

Yeah, it has to be the 1st time a Halo, Gears of War and Fable game were all released in one year(if Gears of War 3 is confirmed). They have something in common too...

What a line up for 2010, Gears of War 3, Halo: Reach, and Fable 3. Holy wallet deit batman!

Yeah, it has to be the 1st time a Halo, Gears of War and Fable game were all released in one year(if Gears of War 3 is confirmed). They have something in common too...

Yea, they are probably the top 3 exclusives for xbox, that would be the biggest thing they have in common if you ask me.
