Gears of War 3: community play session video

You killed us hard for two hours - here's some footage of it

Yesterday we hopped into the Gears of War 3 beta for the first time and invited you come along. The results were two hours of curb stomps, boomshots and a freakish amount of one-hit-kill shotgun assaults. We recorded a good chunk of the event, so have a watch - if you played with us, it's possible your tag is in here somewhere!

Immense thanks to everyone who played and watched the stream, and for those who couldn't find a way into our matches, don't worry - we'll have many more sessions like this throughout the summer. BTW, the Gears 3 beta ends on May 15, with the full game set to launch on September 20.
