Watch this amazing, fan-made Gears of War 3 trailer

Unofficial video is almost indistinguishable from official

Sad song? Check. Sad soldiers? Check. Sad, slow-motion gunfire against sadly impossible odds?
Check and check.

Seriously, if there hadn't been a large disclaimer visible during the first few frames, we might have easily mistaken this fan-directed Gears of War 3 trailer for the real thing. The Duo Group has done that impressive of a job mimicking Epic's established style. And Cole Train in the starring role? Hire these guys!

    Looks on par with the actual trailer. The only part that kills it is the dead face on Cole when he looks at his hands - he could have really used some facial animation there.

    When the first GoW3 ad came out, someone said on the YouTube comments that someone should try the same thing with "Hurt." It seems that I'm not the only one to have read that comment.

    A damn fine trailer, but I thought it was a little heavy handed when the music goes "what have I become" and Cole looks at his hands. Same thing right after when it goes "everyone I know/goes away in the end" and that COG redshirt gets his shit rocked.

    Didn't think the song went that well with it personally, felt like I just had the song running on itunes whilst watching the video on mute.

    If they had facial animation, this could have been completely perfect. Even without them, this is DAMN impressive. Hire them, please.

    WOW! Holy Shit that was fucking bad ass!! As a Gears fan, that trailer gave me goosebumps! Perfect song to have the Johnny Cash version instead of the NIN. Fan work rocks!

    Johnny Cash's cover of hurt is perfect for a gears trailer. the is pretty legit for a fan made trailer.
