Where's Dom at
Earlier this month, Ice-T let it slip via a Ustream session that he was playing a role in Epic Games' third installment of the hugely popular Gears of War trilogy. Last night in Los Angeles at a party during E3, Cliff Bleszinki and crew was on hand along with Ice-T and his wife Coco to formerly announce that the rapper turned actor would indeed be dawning his voice to a character named Griffin.
Cliff then went on to mention on his own Twitter page that, Ice wont stop telling everyone about his role in Griffin in Gears 3.
Although Ice-T hasnt been able to keep his notorious mouth shut about his involvement in the game, not much has been said regarding the character hes lending his voice to. You can bet that whatever Griffins story is, hell play a major role in Gears of War 3 since Epic put the effort into recruiting the likes of Ice-T to portray him. Its probably a safe bet hell turn out to be a rough and tough individual with plenty of swagger and an itchy trigger finger with his sights set on laying waste to a few Locust.
Do you think Ice-T will embark on a successful run as a voice actor in Epics Gears of War 3? Be sure to chime in and share your thoughts on the developers decision to introduce one of the games new characters through the recognized voice of Ice-T

Pretty much. If there isn't much to complain about, then there is no point in talking about it._dementia said:GAF usually doesn't like things that are popular

Either that or most Gears fans are busy playing Gears of War 2 now that's it's 6x XP this week.
Sir Garbageman said:Gears of War 2's horrible, horrible multiplayer's fault. I'm kind of on the fence for that exact reason, but a few of my hardcore gamer buds who would be in the market for this game have vowed to not buy it because of how awful GoW2 was. Anecdotal evidence, but there you go.
JB1981 said:The multiplayer is pretty much fine now, but I can see how you felt burned.
PXG: how could you play Gears 1? I tried the other day, its horrendous.
Ramirez said:After Gears 2 MP disaster, they have a long way to go to get me hyped.

http://buttonmasher.co.nz/blog/2010/06/18/gears-of-war-3-hands-on-with-cliffyb/And if that headline isnt the newest porn title off the press here in Hollywood, Ill be disappointed in you, Uwe Boll.
Good ol CliffyB was available to give us a personal demonstration of the stage demo of Gears of War 3. The first thing to know about CliffyB is that he thinks hes hilarious. In fact, he often is, but like any self-styled comedian, hell throw out jokes at any random point during a given conversation. Our favorite line of the day came as I asked a seemingly innocuous query:
So, at any point in the title, will you be teaming up with the Locust to take out a mutated Lambent?
No, man, that would be gay.
Well said?
He stated that theyre very hesitant this time around vehicular combat, saying theyve received generally negative feedback on those sections in the past. Some new executions abound, as well as what he called a bag tag, affixing a grenade to an enemy and them pushing him into enemy lines, taking out several in the process.
The latest version of the Unreal 3 Engine is in play, boasting some new shadow/lighting effects (most notable in the Hammer of Dawn sequence). As usual, Gears of War 3 seeks to expand to ratcheting up the visuals and viscerals. Bring it on, Cliffy.

All the released DLC is 800 points.Liara T'Soni said:Was also burned by Gears 2 MP. I spent more time trying to find a game as I did playing.
I'd pop it in to see what I've been missing but I'd probably need to buy like 15 map packs...:lol
Edit : Half to admit that some of those new locust and weapons do look cool though.
-PXG- said:Either
1) You play with people with shitty connections
2) You have a shitty connection
3) Play with people who only do lame ass shotty/ sniper battles
4) You suck at the game
Gears 1 is great. Fast paced, arcadey and requires (more) skill than the sequel. Gears 2 is solid now, but there is still some bullshit that is just intolerable in that game.
I'm getting slightly hyped for Gears 3. I like what I see so far. I just hope the MP is more balanced this time around.
Gears, for me, is just one of those games Im just going to buy. I know Im going to get it, my friends and I are going to play the hell out of it and have fun but at the same time its hard to get excited about. I wasnt home to watch the conference but when I asked a friend of mine how Gears looked he said:JB1981 said:Seems to be a curious lack of excitement for this game on GAF. Weird.
Halo vehicles missions are totally different than COD. One is good and one isn't.WrikaWrek said:The vehicle sections in Gears just weren't well done.
They should take a look at Halo and COD and try to do something along those lines, unfortunately they do them really shitty and slow and not exciting at all.
Half of the gears 1 maps were slightly tighter due to 4 on 4, especially Raven Down, one of the best maps in gears 1.Chinner said:i haven't tried AU6, but it does appear to have fixed everything. Still, I prefer the maps of GOW1, theres just something about them which I feel GOW2 misses completely.
Same here :lolchandoog said:oh fuck .. i just google imaged Coco
DAYUM !! :lol
