Bad news for those anticipating a bit of wall-covering Gears of War action before its November 17 release date - there will be no demo before the shooter hits the shops, and perhaps not even afterwards, says Epic VP Mark Rein.
Responding to an Xbox.com image that misleadingly flagged a Gears of War demo, Rein posted the following message on the official Gears forum:
"It just isn't true. There is no demo coming out before the game ships and I have no idea if we'll do one after the game ships or not. Right now there are no plans to do one as I said earlier in this thread. I have asked Microsoft to take that image down."
There you have it then, straight from the horse's mouth. You're going to have to wait for the final product to hit the shops before you sample Gears' Locust-chainsawing goodness.
