Gears of War 3: Emergence Day Prequel?

Gears of War questions at New York Comic Con spark rumors that gears may grind in an Emergence Day prequel.

The future of Gears of War was discussed over a Q&A panel at this year's New York Comic Con with such Gears talent as Joshua Ortega, Gears of War 2 writer, and Carlos Ferro, the voice of Dominic Santiago, answering questions from fans. One curious fan asked (via IGN) if there are plans to do a prequel that deal with the events of Emergency Day, the day the Locust rose from under the planet Sera and attacked the human race?

"You will not be disappointed in the next ten years," Ortega replied. "It's a ten-year plan. Gears is long-term. The lancer is the new lightsaber."

In regards to another question about additional Gears of War 2 downloadable content in the future, Ortega said, "Keep watching. You won't be disappointed."

Hmm.. should be interesting.. Maybe they'll be able to develop their characters a little more with this move..

Don't really know how to feel on this one. Gears is my favorite game on 360 by far but I hate prequels, I rather know more about the story at hand. Oh well as long as I get to shoot something every 5 seconds I'll be happy.

The Lancer is the new Lightsaber. Quite a bold statement, but I believe it. Gears 2 is rapidly becoming more and more popular as the years pass.

you know just like every other player out there I had the notion that this would be a trilogy. Alas, how stupid and premature those ideas were. Its a cash cow, and they're gonna milk it like maddnesss

The Lancer is the new Lightsaber.....not in a million years. Put your feet on the groun man, do not compare Gears of wars with the iconic popularity of a Star Wars elements... that movie was from the 70's man! haha I dont think 30 years from now people will be engaged in Gears of wars.

Damn, 10-year plan... How many games can you honestly make out of one? I can't say that I wouldn't get another Gears game.

But if they try to make a ton of Gears games they will lose there golden days and people will become board with it.

lol, gears is the new star wars? you actually have to be able to tell a story more complicated than what a 5 year old can come up with to make it feasible.

They will finish the trilogy and then release Gears 0 followed by the pendulum wars.

It's the logical way imo.
