So. I realize that recently, I've questioned why in the world anyone would want to watch leaked footage of Gears 3 gameplay, or indeed, any game. But that's just me. And besides, this video isn't gameplay, it's just the opening cinematic to next month's big 360 exclusive Gears of War 3.
"Previously, on Gears of War: Locusts! Explosions! Jacinto! Anya is hot! Dom is tortured! Marcus is a little bit of both! Then we all moved onto boats!"
The cinematic ends just in time to make me really want to start playing Gears of War 3. What will happen next? My guess: They all sail away for a nice vacation, and everything works out awesome.
