The promised footage of Gears of War 3 to be shown at the VGA’s tonight has apparently been chainsawed out of the schedule, according to a report by Mirosoft’s Major Nelson. Here’s what the report had to say:
"I have just learned of a decision to postpone our planned Gears of War news from Epic Games for the Spike Video Game Awards this weekend. I wanted to share this with you and let you know that while these are never easy decisions, we can tell you that what we have to share for the franchise in 2011 will definitely be worth the wait and we look forward to working with our partner at Spike on sharing this world premier news when it is ready."
This announcement comes shortly after assurances by Epic Games’ Cliffy B that the new footage would be, and I quote, "awesome". Well guess what? Lame.
Holiday 2011 now seems that much further away.
