Rumor: Gears page hints GOW2 release as Nov 9

Alright kiddies time for some sleuthing courtesy of the Gears of War Official Forums. The Gears site has a new splash page up (above) and in Marcus’ hand are some Dog (Cog?) Tags. Immediately upon discovery, there was the speculation that this meant death and loss would play some bigger part in the game’s story. But then someone decided to take a closer look at the number sequence visible on the tag: 033-116-117-126-071.

Seemingly random right? Nope. Match those numbers with one of these ASCII tables, and you’ll get yourself the following letter string: “ESC N O V 9″. We’d love to believe that this was simply thrown in there to mess with the community, but it seems to be too much of a coincidence to be something wholly meaningless. Is this an early “word” on the release date? We sure hope so.

Hit the break for a closer look at the tags.

[Thanks Laron Alexander]
