The day that the Gears world will supposedly be unearthed in an entirely different way thanks to a much deeper storyline.

(via Xboxer) - I'm looking forward to seeing more of the new Quantum of Solace game from Treyarch. The graphics are looking great, unsurprising given that it's being powered by the same engine that powered Call of Duty 4.
