Gears of War Realm

In anticipation of the upcoming release of Gears of War, the Xbox folks have updated the game’s official website GearsOfWar.com. The website now features some really slick interactivity, with what is sure to be many hidden puzzles and clues related to the game’s universe.

Here is what Microsoft’s press release had to say about the new website:

With the threat of Emergence Day on the horizon, Microsoft Game Studios released a new “Gears of War” site that allows gamers inside the mind of its lead character, Marcus Fenix. The site, which can be found at http://www.gearsofwar.com/, immerses gamers through a series of disturbing flashback videos that foretell various aspects of the game’s storyline and highlight the uniquely destroyed beauty of the games environment.

Visitors to the site can also pre-order “Gears of War,” visit the community forums, share the site with a friend, or register to join the Xbox community for exclusive updates.
