Gears of War 3 launching September 20, beta when?

Speaking of Gears of War 3, Microsoft and Epic Games have finally agreed upon a release date for the title.  September 20 is the lucky date so start saving your pennies to put an end to the Locust Horde.

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.

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!

Let’s go!  I anticipate the beta for Gears of War 3 will begin around April this year.

    I imagine The OneShot is going to have limited ammo. No matter though I think it’s gonna be sweet. Can’t wait to play it.
