The latest EGM (which has Wolverine on the cover) has a rather juicy rumor. Seems that Cliff and the guys at Epic are already hard at work on Gears of War 3 for the Xbox 360. Word is there are plenty of tweaks in the works to the engine and a new 5 player co-op experience. If true, Microsoft has at least another sure fire hit for next fall. Although it does seem to be a bit soon for another Gears game, but perhaps Epic just wants to finish out this trilogy on the 360. Either way Gears fans will be happy to finally close out this chapter in the Locust war. Besides Gear 3, Epic is also hard at work on an all new original horror title which will be multiplatform. 09 looks to be one super busy year for Epic.

[EDIT] - Seems it’s not 09 but 2010, which sure as hell makes a lot more sense. Well nice to know that the 360 has at least 2 more years in it.

Dude. Please link.

Wow great. This must mean that the new 360 aint gonna come out before 2011 at least.

This... was.... expected...

I don't believe that. It would be too expensive to do that, and MS only thinks about money.

I strongly resent the implication that I am the type of person who would visit n4g.com.

Well there was sorta a unofficial teaser of Gears 3 already at end of Gears 2. The rumour was Cliff will be the creative director of another new IP.

My friend told me there wasn't much of a story to follow after the second one. Maybe it's a prequel.
