Gears of War 3 Release Date

Gears of War 3 has been given a final release date as Microsoft announces that Epic's saga will be concluding on September 20. 

Originally slated for release this Spring, Gears of War 3 was hit with a delay that pushed it back to later in the year. It'll mark the end of a trilogy that kick-started the HD console generation back in 2006. A look late last year at the multiplayer features suggested it will be a fitting finale. 

More details on Gears of War 3 are expected to hit at a Microsoft event being held in San Francisco today, and some quarters are expecting it to be Kinect-related. Check back on IGN for more info on what promises to be one of 2011's biggest blockbusters.
