What you’re seeing isn’t an official trailer for Epic’sGears of War 3, but you’d be hard pressed to tell.
Created byThe Duo Group(in collaboration with a who slew of other folks), it’s set to Johnny Cash’s haunting cover of Nine Inch Nail’s “Hurt.” It follows in the footsteps of previous (and official)Gearspromotional clips — COG soldiers with their backs to a wall, facing unassailable odds against incoming Locust (and now Lambent) forces, and a depressing music bed. It’s almost getting to the point where it’s “paint by numbers,” but damned if it doesn’t work every time, so I don’t see any reason to stop.
