Previous Gears games, Unreal Tournament 3, Shadow Complex, the upcoming Bulletstorm... It's the usual current-gen suspects. I'd be willing to bet that we're looking at new character and weapon skins for multiplayer (particularly given that Gears' Marcus and Dom made an appearance as reskins in Lost Planet 2), but hopefully there'll be something a bit more imaginative on offer too. A 2D Gears level for Shadow Complex players? A "tether Locust and kick them at Dom's bayonet" minigame for Bulletstorm players? Basically, no chance. But we can but dream.

What do you reckon this little lot will entail? And what are you hoping for? However crazy, all ideas are welcomed.
