Oddly enough, I just can't bring myself to care about this game.

Asthmatics wouldn't like the dangerous levels of dust in the air. Just saying. Not healthy!

Cool. Unfortunately for most, it'll be hard to really care as much about it if they haven't read the books.

I agree. I can't wait either, but notice that two of the people who were criticising are blue for Playstation, which were the harsher comments as well! ;)
 
I'm not saying this game is for everyone as there are people on Xbox who dislike the game too, but just pointing it out.  :)

Gears is the GREATEST! I wanna spend more time with these characters even though there's not much there, just because shotgunning dudes in these games is so fucking bodacious.

FUCK the haters, this is one o the best games goin right now!

I think Anya's voice acting could've used some more emotion in this, she delivered it all pretty straight considering the context :/

Cannot wait, one of the best series to come out this generation. 
 
Gears 1 was the the first real next gen game for me, like Devil May Cry last gen it was the game that made me go "wow" for the first time on my new console, Gears is allot of fun and I enjoyed the MP allot in 1 never played much in 2 due to a big back log of other great games but hoarde mode was great, Gears 3 seems to be adding more enjoyable content to an already great game. 
 
It's funny to read all the "couldnt care less" "over rated game" comments, its the same with COD, when gears 1 hit it was mainly praise from the commentors same with cod but then it became popular and the hate started, oh well each to their own.

@NTM: meh, I don't think so. Nothing really extraordinary happens in them and if EPIC thought it was important it would come up in the game.

Thank you for "Bodacious", a great word that doesn't get enough use and respect.

The game looks cool, but that intro is pretty boring. I don't care for Anya's voice, and the whole thing is a bit too serious for a game in which you saw people in half with a chainsaw gun.

this intro is disappointing.  if this really is the intro for the game, it doesn't feel very GoW-ish.

Anyone else find it funny that during that entire video she is talking about how time is up, no time to waste, all is about to end, yet she has time to sit there doing arts and crafts to decorate her gun? Must be some kind of subtle joke about finally letting ladies into the fight or something.

I would guess it's because they aren't there and any info they would report would be second hand so you may as well just go to the places that are reporting it. Giantbomb has never been a news site first.

Goddammit, the only reason I even play Gears is so I can go onto the forums for it, and read other peoples reasons for not liking it!
