Rumor: Gears of War 3 Info?

As you should all know it has been confirmed that Cliff Bleszinski, the well-known name associated with Epic Studios and all things Gears of War, will be on The Late Show to discuss the next game Epic is working on. Unfortunately Cliff’s appearance has been delayed in favor of getting Justin Bieber on the show (terrible, I kn0w). However he’ll still be appearing sometime next week, which means there’s already been some rumors swimming around about what Cliff could be announcing.

Or rather the same source that told the world that Cliff would be on the show at all, is also leaking Gears of War rumors. Here’s what’s being talked about:

• Tentacle-built Locust that can circumvent a player’s cover spot
• “Heavy duty mech suits”
• Underwater gameplay (what?)
• Jungle landscapes
• Large city environment

A few of these rumors stem from Epic’s presentation on Unreal Engine 3’s new capabilities. As we all know the year prior to Gears of War 2’s launch, Epic showed a gigantic meatcube to the audience. When the game came out, we saw the Worm level. It seems plausible to connect what they show during a tech demo and what would be in the final game.

There’s no confirmation to these rumors (seeing as how the game isn’t even announced yet) so we’ll have to wait for The Late Show to come on and see what’s up.
