It's a verified account, which means they have to provide some form of identification to Twitter so that it's listed as the "official" account of that individual/organization.

Plus it's what he listed on the local news when they interviewed him about Epic and the jobs it provides here in the RTP area

I don't know why people feel the need to expand on such a basic universe. Basically just for people who didn't get what was going on in Gears 1 and have to be spoon fed to keep up.

For people who want to know why we are chainsawing tese guys it matters alot.
And although i might be reading this wrong you think it doesnt fit in the universe. It does though because our species is at the end of our ropes. Why wouldnt we see humans a resources. Men our seen as expendable and women reproductive. Neither sound good but its there reality.

Maybe I missed it in the vid... but the armor looked pretty normal on the girl? Maybe people are referring to a pic? She's only in the trailer for a few seconds, and it's not a very clear shot...

I've never played gears, btw... I'm hoping Halo Reach wins me back to the Xobx, which is pretty much gathering dust here right now...

I think we need Beserkers again and amybe Kyrill . I enjoyed gears of war 1 more than 2. The sotry line was a lot more though out . I know the second was longer and had a few more things. But its substence over style. I really hope they improve the online play, I really loathe the host thing. They need to sort out those lag switching beeeeeps . If they have a good sotry line like the first one and a similar yet improved online paly from the second then you cant go wrong. I always find the first games campaign is always much better . Its nearlly always 50 - 50 wit hthe 3rd of a franchise.

Apart from this and Fallout new Vegas there's nothing else to look forward to, hope they sort out the multiplayer as well.

Kryll got exterminated at the end of the first game with the lightmass bomb. Agreed with the beserkers, though.

I'm skeptical bout new vegas... Fallout 3 was a let down for me ( big fan of the old games ).

I agree that there isn't much to look forward to atm though...

He'll be in this one, he's still alive.

I'm still praying Lambent RAAM, he was knocked over then fell into the Imulsion, a big explosion to expand him, Giant Lambent RAAM, he was tough in the first, imagine him then...and he'll C'tan explode when you beat him xD

I love Gears, but I don't expect to see anything new about the game mechanics, it's pretty much been the same for 1 & 2. This time round I hope the online actually works.

I'm disappointed with this being the last one, there's too much story to explain for one more game, it's going to be awfully thrown in hails.

If you'd read the second book, Jacinto's remnant, Dizzy turns up, alongside his daughters and wife on the island that humanity has retreated to.

Tai stayed to defend Dizzy against the big priest dude, and that's how he ended up in the coffin things.

Fable 1 and 2 are both steaming piles, and I will never buy anything ever again that Peter Molyneux has spouted his nonsense about.

I loved Fable 2, but the end boss was highly anti-climactic.

I've tried whining about this :(


Anyhoo, as for Gears, nothing to worry about, it sucked imo

Anya is NOT wearing 'porno armour', for feth's sake.



It's standard Gears armour cut down for her build.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.
