Hardcore gamers should grab their diaries and mark down 20 September as the day Gears of War 3 is released.

The hugely successful franchise was originally penned in for release this April, but Microsoft later said it had to be pushed back.

The story continues 18 months after GoW 2, with familiar characters continuing to battle the Locust in a bid to save mankind.

As well as a bunch of fresh maps and weapons to look forward too, we've been promised a five-on-five multiplayer experience and four player campaign mode. Brrring it on. ®
