Gears of War 3 Delayed Till Holidays 2011
That’s the sound of many, many Xbox 360 gamers shouting unintelligible nonsense upon hearing the news that Gears of War 3 has been delayed from April, 2011 to the holiday season of 2011. Oh dear.
The game, which was scheduled for release on April 5, 2011, has been pushed back. Yes, you just read that in the headline and in the first paragraph. Redundant!
But why? Not really sure. Microsoft said, “The teams at Microsoft Game Studios and Epic Games have done great work thus far readying the title for release in the Spring of 2011. However, we’ve elected to move the launch of Gears of War 3 until Fall 2011 to make it the marquee title for the holiday season.”
“Elected”? That could be that Microsoft wanted a guaranteed hit for the holidays at the expenses of the springtime months (when no games come out anyway), so it moved it back a few months.
Or, the game needed a bit more work.
Either way, you’ll be playing it when everyone is saying “happy holidays!” to each other, like we’re all pre-programmed Sims.
Just a reminder: the Xbox 360 came out in November, 2005, so the little Microsoft box is getting up there in age.

Unboxing Live 059: Xbox 360 S
Microsoft announced the new Xbox 360 S last week at E3, and we were able to get our hands on one soon after to give you a look at all the goodness. As a refresher, the newly redesigned Xbox 360 is 35% thinner than the original, and features a glossy black exterior. It ships with a 250GB hard drive that’s been redesigned to fit into the new shape of the console, and it drops the memory card slots. Even better, it comes with built-in 802.11g/n Wi-Fi, so there is no need for any sort of external dongle accessory anymore. Hit the video for all the rest, but just know that you can pick up the new Xbox 360 now for $299.
