  • Gears Of War Erector Sets Let You Build Sera’s Defense

    Gears of War and Erector have joined forces to bring four sets exclusively to Toys R Us stores ranging in price from 20-50 dollars. Shown above is the King Raven helicopter which comprises over 300 pieces and four figures. The other three sets are the Centaur Tank, Armadillo APC and a Battle Set which can be seen below.

    I think it’s time to re-discover my kid side when Lincoln Logs and building model Millenium Falcons were the spice of life.

  • Gears Of War: Judgment VGA Trailer

    While founders of Epic may be leaving left and right Gears of War: Judgment is still roadie running its way to release. The new trailer shows Baird and his group being put on trial for events that should take place in the game 30 days after E-Day. Developer People Can Fly have a lot to live up to gameplay wise but from what has been shown they seem to be keeping everything strictly Gears. If it’s not broke…

    Take a look at the trailer below.

  • Grand Theft Auto 5 Release Confirmed.

    Rockstar’s Next GTA Title Takes On A Crowded Spring.

    The early 2013 game landscape just got a lot more crowded with Rockstar’s official announcement today that Grand Theft Auto 5 would be released in the spring.

    This is certainly huge news for game fans that have been waiting almost five years for the followup to the popular game series. Almost certainly other game companies are waiting for a solid release date to see if any adjustments need to be made to their own game releases.

    There are a host of big name games releasing early next year like Tomb Raider, Gears of War and The Last of Us but almost any game should avoid being released on or near GTA’s release because they are among the biggest you see in gaming.

    Rockstar has said that they will open the floodgates on Grand Theft Auto 5 starting next month and that pre-orders on the game begin November 5th.

  • Take A Look At The Tomb Raider Box Art

    The first quarter of next year is loaded with a list of great games. So much so that it almost rivals this holiday season in terms of big titles. One of the biggest is Crystal Dynamics reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise. Bringing Laura Coft back in the past and showing gamers how she became the heroine we fell in love with on the original Playstation, this new Tomb Raider has wowed at every turn and is set to be released on March 5th, 2013.

    Today Square released the official box art for the game which shows our hero on the shipwrecked island from the previews. What do you think? Have you decided already to pre-order the game or is it getting lost with the likes of Bioshock and Gears of War coming out next year?

  • Gears Of War Movie Not Dead Yet

    Could We See Delta Squad On The Big Screen After All?

    You would think that bringing Gears of War to theaters would be a no brainer but the movie has been in house at New Line since 2007 and has not moved past the development phase. Things looked bright in 2010 when director Len Wiseman was brought on to direct a feature film version of Marcus Fenix and Delta Squad’s fight against the Locust but again the movie was put aside for New Line to focus on production of The Hobbit (and who can really blame them for that since The Hobbit will be a cash printing machine).

    Now the folks over at Creative Artists Agency are shopping the property around to other studios in hope that fans can finally get a big screen version of the best-selling video game. With Gears of War: Judgement due out next March and the Gears trilogy grossing over 1 billion dollars they still see the potential for a movie but that has yet to help Halo get off the ground either.

    I would rather have no Gears movie at all than get a half-assed version just to take advantage of a property. Like with Halo there can be no “scaled down” budget for a movie this size especially if you are going to keep the look and feel of the movie true to the Gears universe.

    So let the speculation begin again!! Who would be the best choice to direct or star in a Gears of War movie? Let us know what you think.
