Any news on the Urban skins craig?

No info on the Epic Forums, i'm guessing we'll have to unlock them like we did in the Beta, play a certain amount of a specific gametype.

There are some green liquid skins that Epic have said can only be got by taking part in a Microsoft promotion and that they will be free, no word on what the promotion is yet though, lots of people saying it might involve Xbox Live Rewards.

Pre order my copy at Game , hope to get it at midnight on release. I all I need to do now to find a way of getting from 71 to 100 in gears 2.

[nCogNeato]

Nice find, Crak.   

[GamerMan316]

Might want to avoid the Epic forums until the mods come along, loads of idiots are posting Gears 3 spoilers all over the bloody place, be warned!

[Windedprism]

Why would you need all those skins?!

Spoilers not good!

Burn them all.

[GamerMan316]

Gears 3 reviews are everywhere online now, not reading any but it's getting some very high scores as expected, some good scores too and probably a few average scores though I haven't seen those yet.

We should also get a price for the bulk pack of weapon skins in the next couple of days.

Did this go gold yet? 

[hoosierjoe]

Oh yeah... probably weeks ago.

[Jurassic Parky]

Can't wait! Got every setup now for the midnight release, X41's are all setup, Monster Energy's are in the fridge. Just wanna get a couple of games rinsed before Monday night so I can trade them in.

[Jaynestown]

Oh good idea, must get some energy drinks before Monday night.

Thank god they changed Trenches, looks a hell of a lot better
