No Gears Of War At VGAs

Xbox 360 spokesperson Major Nelson has just posted some disappointing news on his blog. It appears the planned Gears Of War reveal has now been postponed.

“I have just learned of a decision to postpone our planned Gears of War news from Epic Games for the Spike Video Game Awards this weekend.  I wanted to share this with you and let you know that while these are never easy decisions, we can tell you that what we have to share for the franchise in 2011 will definitely be worth the wait and we look forward to working with our partner at Spike on sharing this world premier news when it is ready.”

This could be a Major (aha!) blow for Microsoft,  losing a chance to promote one of the largest Xbox 360 franchises will mean more column space tomorrow morning for Resistance and Uncharted.
