Yesterday, Jimmy Fallon announced that Epic Games will be revealing their next title on Late Night. Today, Cliff Bleszinki hints at what to expect from the announcement.
The recently re-launched video game magazine, Electronic Gaming Monthly, will apparently feature the third installment of the Gears of War series in the next issue.
"Could the Gears of War franchise finally be getting its first playable female character? …maybe. It’s the weekend, “real” news doesn’t happen.
Speaking with 1 vs. 100 LIVE host Chris Cashman during the August 1st live game, Epic Games’ Cliff Bleszinski, better known to gamers as “Cliffy B”, “The Cliffster” and “Captain Snugglepuff”* was asked if gamers could ever expect to play as a female character in a Gears of War game.

Images surfaced today of a round of Gears of War 2 being played on a somewhat different map than what came with the disc. The level seems to feature a large amount of imulsion which appears to be running through a ruined city.

We'll have to wait and see.
A rumor about Gears of War 2 has come out, that people who buy the game will get a special code that will let them unlock five multiplayer maps, called Gridlock, Subway, Canals, Mansion, and Tyro Station. Another rumor has come out that those who attend the midnight release events, will get a special gold plated Hammerburst.
Also, new screenshots for the game have come out. I've not attached any because none of the images are being recognized as pictures. Go to the source to see them all.
