Gears of War 3



Description:

Developed by acclaimed studio Epic Games and available only on Xbox 360, Gears of War 3 plunges players into a harrowing tale of hope, survival, and brotherhood that will conclude the current story arc for Gears of War. With the last human city destroyed and the remaining survivors stranded, time is running out for Marcus and his comrades as they fight to save the human race from the jaws of extinction.

The story takes place eighteen months after the events of Gears of War 2 and the loss of the human stronghold of Jacinto. Marcus, Baird, Dom and company continue their fight to save human civilisation, as they battle the Locust and face new threats from within the planet throughout the campaign mode.

Features:

* An enthralling cinematic story that captivates players in an intimately intense action game.

* Five-on-five multiplayer experience as well as four player campaign co-op experience.

* New multiplayer game modes including 'Beast Mode' - offering a new twist to the game where you take on the role of the locust horde and their assorted variations!

* New maps including: Trenches which features an impressive sand storm that reduces your visibility, as well as Overpass, Mercy, Checkout, and Thrashball.

* New weapons including: The Bayonet Charge, The Retro Lancer, The Sawed-off Shotgun, The OneShot - a heavy sniper rifle that shoots through shields or cover for a surprise one shot kill, The Incendiary Grenade, The Digger Launcher and a few subtle tweaks to old favourites Hammerburst and The Classic Lancer. Don't forget that each weapon now has its own execution move!

How to play Gears 3 beta right now:

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=27168720&postcount=1829

Quote:
I revised the instructions for the USB Method, hopefully its easier to understand:

Steps:
1. Download and extract the beta from: http://www.multiupload.com/I2HU90MU5F
2. Plug in your USB memory stick into your Xbox
3. Goto My Xbox > System Settings > Memory > USB Storage Device > Configure Now
4. Wait while the Xbox reformats your memory stick and then plug it into your PC
5. Download USBXTAFGUI_v44 and run it.
6. Goto File > Open First USB Device
7. It should load from your memory stick and under "File System" you should see "Cache Partition" and "Data Partition"
8. The folder structure for the memory stick needs to be the following. Create folders as needed (Note: thats 16 zeroes):

Data Partition > Content > 0000000000000000 > 4D5389B9 (drag extracted beta folder here)

9. Goto File > Close Current Drive
10. Unplug the memory stick from your PC and plug it back into your Xbox.
11. Goto My Xbox > Game Library > Game Demos & Trials and look for Gears of War 3 Beta
12. Load the launcher and it will prompt you to download a 500~ mb update.
13. You're done!

Note: This has been confirmed to work by a number of folks including myself. However, there are no guarantees as to whether this will get you banned or not. Proceed at your own risk!


Works like a charm. It's like demo, but you download 500mb update when you boot it.

Yeah, sure...they will ban you for ''pirating'' a demo, which has no drm. Laughing Laughing

All your stats, unlockable skins will carry over the final version of the game. Smile

Playing 3rd day - no ban so far. And if that happens they ban you only from Gears3, not the whole xbl. Will not buy the game then. Smile

For Halo Reach/Cod beta's also were promised bans - no one actually was. Smile

Haha those guys at epic games really think they are special or cool.

Ban on online retail GoW3? I wasn't planning on buying this piece of trash, but that statement is just sad Laughing Maybe, just maybe, they should look into their own screw ups in their beta/live functionality before banning people who outsmart them Smug

Is this series even any good? Thanks Epic for completely abandoning the PC. Hard to believe you actually made Unreal Tournament.

The SP campaign of GOW2 was good. Very linear but definitely above your average cover shooter.

Nah, this game appeals to the derpy masses who want extreme gore lol wut Graphics still look the same, gameplay wise is looks exactly the same... same shit different box. Oh yeah, they have dedicated servers now, it took them 2 GoW games to figure that one out.

It's designed/lead by this faggot, reason alone to pirate the hell out of this game Rolling Eyes

That description fits GOW1 very well. The game had little to offer apart from gore and a cover system that was still somewhat fresh at the time, the only thing that made GOW1 stand out was the graphics and the lack of competition (meanwhile the market is flooded with cover shooters).

GOW2 looked exactly the same on screenshots, but the level design was a lot more versatile. It had more landmark moments and levels that stand out with altered game mechanics.

I'm only talking about the SP of course, you seem to be more interested in MP.

That pretty much sums up every "AAA" title that has come out in the last 2 years. Insert some war based bullshit or zombie shit and there ya go.
