Gears of War 3 adds 'Fenix Rising' map pack on Jan. 17

4.7
The "Fenix Rising" map pack for Gears of War 3 will decorate players who are already well-versed in rolling shotguns. The new add-on, due on January 17, 2012, for 800 MSP ($10), adds five new maps, four character skins and "Re-up," the Gears version of Call of Duty's "Prestige." Here, it allows players to rank through level 100 multiple times for "exclusive emblems and weapon skins."

The Re-up can be done three times to unlock the following weapon skins:


  • Re-Up Plasma – Animated flowing plasma in gold.
  • Re-Up Omen – Shiny, red Omen.
  • Re-Up Electric – Animated, golden electric shocks.


    "Fenix Rising" is the third of four packs bundled with the $30 Gears Season Pass. The "underdeveloped" campaign DLC, RAAM's Shadow, was the most recent release, coming after the co-op focused "Horde Command Pack."

    iAmMasterF hahahaha gears of war 3 multiplayer is EMPTY. no one plays on it because it's incredibly n00b friendly, i mean it changes it's core gameplay to be n00b friendly. at least cod doesn't do that.

    so by making players 'prestige' gives them a more of a reason to play the game, even tho they don't enjoy it.


    Your just mad cause you can't play the game.. :D

    CoD is completely noob friendly. All you ever needed to do is spray and you get an easy kill. Gears you actually need to hit your shots and be tactical and work as a team. CoD anyone can be good just by holding down the trigger.

    OT: I'm gonna re-up as much as I can!

    Wtf,you are a textbook definition of fail. Gears= Empty? Are you crazy kid? "At least cod doesn't do that" Uhhh have you heard of deathstreaks bro?That is designed for noobs who suck. Anyone can hop on CoD and do well with only a couple of games practice. You cannot do that in ANY Gears game.I can't believe you just compared Gears to Cod(the most noob friendly shooter to hit console, plus the Guy behind the game even said it is noob friendly) Thinking before you post shouldn't be THAT HARD.

    Just because one person doesn't play it, (YOU) doesn't mean everyone is going to follow you. It is not empty. And people don't always want a COD or a COD remake.
    Yes they are making a prestige like system but that doesn't change gameplay at all.
