The Gears of War film has been in limbo for quite some time now. Len Wiseman, the director of Underworld and Die Hard 4.0 was attached to direct, but then bailed after budget cuts – originally cited to exceed $100 Million – scaled the project down to “a simple, straight-ahead invasion story,” instead of the “sprawling, multi-generational epic” it was …

Some sad news coming out of Comic Con over the weekend. Apparently Len Wiseman, the films director, feels that The Rock is tarnished by that abysmal excuse of a movie, Doom, and therefore won’t be involved in the Gears of War movie. This makes me sad as if you asked me to name a muscle bound meathead who would fit …

The story that the Gears of War movie is “looking good” is doing the rounds on the internet, but on closer inspection, I realised that it’s not the movie itself that is looking good, only the basic script and budget proposals and so on. The movie itself is not anywhere near the beginning of production yet as no budget has …

Len Wiseman, Creator of the Underworld films, gets to wake up every morning next to Kate Beckinsale. I hate him. As we’ve reported, he will also be helming the Gears of War movie, which depending on the outcome, may make me hate him even more. In a recent interview with Bloody Disgusting, Kate Beckinsale’s husband revealed that his scope for …

This rather funny music video was created because, as most of you know, CliffyB (Cliff Bleszkinski, whatever) really likes giving his opinion on things and at the same time, the media really likes reporting about them. Well it seems like these guys have had quite enough of Cliff's ramblings and have decided to write a song about it. It's pretty funny stuff and it does make one wonder why in the hell we do see so many articles about CliffyB's opinions. Yes he made a great game but as the song says, that doesn't make him a guru.

The Sci-Fi channel is going to be airing a Gears of War 2 documentary about Delta Squad this Friday. The preview is looking really great and seems to go quite in depth on a lot of the characters and the roles that they play in the game. They also discuss the locust attack as well as the entire story in general.

Only 4 sleepies left until Gears of War 2 hits the shelves and indeed most of our disc drivers. To help ease the pain of the wait, or for that matter, possibly make it worse, we have a montage of a lot of the multiplayer maps, courtesy of IGN. The wait is almost finally over for the sequel to Microsoft's big hit of 2006. The only thing easing my pain at the moment is the barrage of big titles that came out this previous weekend.

This latest developer diary from Epic doesn't really focus on anything specific but rather talks about a lot of the different aspects that make up the game. They also discuss the fans and the media as well as what they are doing to try improve the game as well as attract new audiences. Just a week and a bit left till the destruction begins and these videos aren't helping to make the wait go quicker.
