Anya and Dom will die, and upon saving the world Marcus Fenix will be alone.  It's predictable.

" Hey, Epic! You're supposed to show lots of ridiculous action and explosions. This is Gears of War, please don't pretend you're some kind of subtle character drama. "
They are setting up the world your playing in since everythings gone to shit whit the last human city destroyed(you thought you saved it in GOW2, Ha! think again). It has nothing to do whit it being an character drama or anything like that. They are setting up the hopeless situation your in when picking up GOW3. You seem to mistake that just because someone is doing an action game they automaticaly have to be explotions and boobs. Also, this was first shown on national TV. What kind of trailer would fit better on TV? One whit gore, guts and explotions or this. Think a bit before you open your... keyboard? "
That is my point, that they are "setting up the story." Epic is terrible at storytelling. If a game is going to integrate story and characters, they need to be good.

I don't think the COGS and Locust are teaming it up. If you pay close attention during the last few scenes you will see that the squad is shooting at the new enemy and the Locust.
 
PS: I hope they didn't kill off Baird I liked him.

i highly doubt that woman could hold up a gun/ chainsaw'ish device of that size considering what appears to be an extreme lack of arm muscle! not a bicep in sight

Looks lame 
 
First Gears was great, the second sucked balls and Cliffy will probably butcher the third with his ego.

First two games were fairly average if you ask me. Not very excited for this one.

I feel the same way. This trailer and the "Last Day" trailer for Gears of War 2 (it's on Giant Bomb and it's better than this one, check it out) are miles beyond the actual Gears storyline. It's a shame that these things get everyone so hyped up to play the games and then the real story is horrible.

I disagree. I doubt she has fought as long or as hard as the dudes, besides she was well protected in the first two games.

I thought this was some Bill Callahan song I'd never heard. Then I realized it's Mark Kozelek. Weird.
