They hint at this being the end of the humans but that's probably not the case.  It would be cool if this ended with everyone dieing but it won't.

God damn, whoever it is that runs the Gears marketing team needs to get a raise; every single ad for every single gears game has been brilliant, and the music choice has been outstanding.

In the thumbnail for the video. I'm glad they haven't felt the need to make her look too feminine... wouldn't seem right otherwise.

Though Gears 2 didn't really live up to my expectations, I must say this got me excited.

I'm not crazy about the trailer. It was okay, but nothing that really amazed me. I liked how people were turned to dust, that was pretty cool. It also made me think of Pompeii. Additionally, I liked Dom's little moment of remembering Maria and how in that moment, he just gives up, and would have been killed if Marcus wouldn't have saved him. Dom's more vulnerable that ever, and man, I am loving that beard.
 
Well, I'm glad the chick is Anya, though they haven't been very consistent with her appearance in the games.

How was it some big mystery to people that it was Anya in the video? I thought that seemed obvious.

They should probably wear a mask or something... breathing in that much ash is pretty tough.

Cool trailer. Not really a big surprise to see another gears but it will be nice to see how they wrap up the trilogy. I loved Gears 2... I wonder how horde mode will evolve (or change).

I've always had mixed feelings on Gears, but I'll likely play and enjoy this one as well.  Besides, BEARDS!

@ISmoochyI: It makes sense that Gears comes out in April 2011 as it continues the yearly alternation with Halo. Halo Reach comes out this November, so Gears would come out the following year. What's more interesting to me is that instead of coming out November 2011, they're pulling Gears back into April. This sets the scene for a Natal release in the late summer or fall 2011.

There were five people there. 
 
I can wait for another Gears. Probably when it comes out will be about time for me to want another.

Looks like pretty much the same old gears of war to me.  Hopefully it's not disappointing like the Gears 2 was.

 I love Gears, and the trailers always carry a 'desperate last stand' message, as if there's very little chance of you winning. Then you play Gears and there's none of that. Instead it's an awesome party of loud guns, gibs and "Woo! Yeah baby!"
 
I really hope they get the feel of this trailer into the final game.
 
Also CliffyB's twitter states:
The song from the trailer is called "Heron Blue" by the band "Sun Kil Moon."

Dom's sick beard makes up for anything bad...like Anya. I feel like that character has looked different constantly.

Epic really does know how to make trailers. They really do.  
 
Although does the beginning of this trailer remind anyone of the Mad World trailer?

looks like they are going to establish Dom as the important character of the series, which would be great if they did.  I don't get how people can hate on the Gears trailers for the haunting, mellow music they use. i always thing those types of commercials are way fucking better than playing Korn or some crappy heavy metal riffs and just blowing stuff up.

I'm not really seeing the whle "it's Dom with a beard!" thing, it doesn't look much like him to me. Then again, all the other character designs have changed, so who knows. Still, I reckon thats Adam Fenix, and its about time we finally got a clear-cut low down on that guy.
