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.

    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size

      Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
