By now, you’ve probably seen the somewhat tainted “Ashes to Ashes” trailer for Epic Games’ Gears of War 3 that appeared last night on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (“tainted” since the big reveal was spoiled last week thanks to a promotions error on Xbox Live). Epic’s Cliff Bleszinski was on hand to pull back the curtain on the, as Bleszinski called it, “worst kept secret in the video game industry.”
The trailer wasn’t quite as affecting as the Gears of War “Mad World” trailer (still one of the best ever, by the way), but it definitely had plenty of discussion-worthy elements (giant tentacle Lambent beasts, female Gears, double-barrel shotguns, the fact that it’s coming out April 2011, etc.). So have at it.
