Gears Of War 3 Beta Starts Next Week! New Footage! UPDATE....

A game I am furiously anticipating in the coming weeks is the Gears Of War 3 Beta. Gears is pretty much my favourite video game series right now and I just cant get enough of it, the games, the comics and the novels (yes there are books!) is just all amazing. 

So its obvious that next week, the launch of the Gears 3 Beta to Bulletstorm players, will be all that I am playing. Considering that I will have 2 straight weeks off I am going to do nothing but play this beta and try to get all the unlockables for the full game. That would include Thrash Ball Cole, Golden Plancer and all the flaming weapons such as the Lancer above. 

But for those of you who are joining me and are still pondering on whether to join in, check out these video below to show off the raw gameplay of Gears Of War 3 Beta.

Expect video's from myself and possibly some commentary to go along it to talk about some of the new features and what I think about them.

Only a few more days!!!

Update:

So just after I posted this a video arisen with Epic Games explaining why they have a beta and what they expect from it. The video pretty much explains what the developers are hoping to achieve and how they are taken full advantage of the delay implemented to them by Microsoft. The Beta gives them an advantage most games don't get the opportunity to do, unlike Gears Of War 2 the next instalment Gears Of War 3 will have the full advantage to try out the new dedicated servers and to look for glitches so that they don't appear in the full game coming out in September 20 this year.
