Rumor: GEARS OF WAR DEMO COMING OCT 12TH

Gears of War just got all viral on us. People who subscribed to the game's official site received an email this morning with a cryptic message and even more cryptic link.

The message seems to be a bit of coalition propaganda, but a dozen of the words in the paragraph are hyperlinks to the same page. The links all point to a sub-page of the Gears of War site called 48HrsExclusiveAccess. The page first shows a little black and white security video of Marcus Fenix in a prison cell and then goes black. You're give three matches to light and explore a wall on the page. If you click on any of the four messages you find there you get to see four different videos showing backstory and some gameplay.

More interesting is the fact that the dozen words that are hyperlinks in the email form the sentence: Marcus Fenix has been located. You have 48 hours to mobilize.

The question is what does that mean. It could mean that the linked page is only around for 48 hours or, let's hold our breath, that we will be perhaps getting a demo of Gears of War in two days.

Go, rend the site, let us know what you come up with. The full email is on the jump. Brian Crecente

The underlined words all linked to http://www.gearsofwar.com/48hrsexclusiveaccess/

When you put the words together it creates "Marcus Fenix has been located You have 48 hours to mobilize"

I thought it was a pretty awesome teaser site, you should check it out while you still can.

Pretty sure we're talking about the same thing, eh?: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...amp;p=587945544

Man, I hope it is a demo :D

I knew someone must have posted something by now. :p I looked through the threads but didn't check there. Sorry about that.

Yeah, a demo would be sweet. Although part of me thinks it would be better to wait for emergance day and get the full effect. :D

Oh, I don't mind. A separate thread is probably better anyway since this is pretty big news... I was just wondering if we were referring to the same thing. :cool:

Yea, I definitely agree, but you can bet I won't be able to resist trying out the demo if it does come out! :devil:

Yeah they did. I can't see them having changed their minds either, with the game being as hyped as it is it probably wouldn't get them any more sales anyway. It makes more sense for them to put the effort into polishing the game for release, then working on a demo later to try and attract those that didn't buy the game on release.

      Online didn't launch until October of 2013. So no one could play it. Even then there were issues.

    • Google Finance is now out of beta with improved portfolio tracking and a new Android app

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Google Finance is now out of beta with improved portfolio tracking and a new Android app by Karthik Mudaliar Google is taking its redesigned Google Finance experience out of beta and adding several new features, including portfolio tracking, scheduled market briefings, and a dedicated Android app. The company says the updates are beginning to roll out globally this week, while an iOS app is planned for later in 2026. The most notable addition is the new portfolio feature. Instead of entering every investment manually, users can upload a screenshot, CSV file, or PDF containing their holdings. They can also tell Google Finance what they own using natural language, such as the number of shares held in a particular company or fund. Google Finance will then place those investments into a dashboard showing performance, asset allocation, concentration risk, and the holdings responsible for the biggest gains or losses. Existing portfolios created with the older version of Google Finance should appear automatically. The built-in AI research panel can use the portfolio as context when answering questions. For example, users can ask which sectors are underrepresented or how their fixed-income allocation could affect long-term growth. Google says portfolio data will remain private and that uploaded files and images will not be retained. Users will also be able to edit or delete their portfolio information after it has been imported. Google Finance is also getting scheduled tasks. These let users request recurring reports such as a daily summary of overnight cryptocurrency movements or a weekly update about newly announced initial public offerings. There is also a new Google Finance app for Android. It includes watchlists, interactive charts, real-time market data, a live news feed, and the same AI research panel available on the web. Google has been gradually expanding the AI-powered Finance redesign since it first entered testing. In April, the experience was expanded to more than 100 countries, bringing its research tools, advanced charts, and market news to a much larger audience. That was followed by a wider European rollout in May, which added features including live earnings calls, transcripts, and AI-generated summaries. The ability to import an entire portfolio from a screenshot or document should make Google Finance considerably easier to set up. However, Android users will have to wait for feature parity with the web version, and Google has yet to say exactly when the iOS app will arrive.
