Update: Thanks to Matt Banks over at Loot Ninja who supplied a scan of an actual promotional flyer, we have confirmed that the Gamestop GoW2 event will in fact be going down this Friday, July 25th. See you at Gamestop!

Both Gamernode (with their insider’s email) and The Wire are reporting that this Friday, July 25th after closing, Gamestop stores nationwide will be hosting Gears of War 2 “After Dark” events. At the events – which are stated to be similar to the original GoW After Dark events held back in October 2006 – they will be airing an exclusive video clip where Cliff Bleszinski introduces some never before seen Gears of War 2 footage. We’re also hearing that following the exclusive video, each store will be holding a quick 1v1 Gears of War tournament where winners will be awarded Microsoft points for their fragging efforts.

Sadly, we’ve yet to find mention of the rumored Friday After Dark events on Gamestop.com so, for the time being, we’ll plop a fat rumor tag on this news and patiently await word from Gamestop regarding the rumor. Our fingers are double crossed in hopes that we have a Gears 2 event to attend later this week.
