[citation][nom]Kronus[/nom]i just zoomed up on the first picture of the old lancers in a chain gun looking thing, looks awesome i just hope 2 things for this game, number 1 that they finish the storyline and actually explain whats going on there was to many holes and not enough story for the first 2 games. number 2 of course theres a beta to fix all the glitches straight out the gate so to speak.[/citation] If you read the books, you can understand everything about the story. The books are really entertaining and explain absolutely everything. The first book, aspho fields, explains their lives before e-day and the pendulum wars, and why marcus and dom are war heroes, and also explains the gap between the first two games. The second book, jacintos remnant, explains what happened after e-day, why the stranded re stranded and the hammer deployment, it also explains what happened after GOW2. The third game wont answer all of the questions, just maybe some answers about the locust invasion and the lambent, but most of the questions will be answered in the third book, anvil gate, that book would likely explain what happenned after the hammer deployment, marcuses jail time, and what happened befor GOW3.
I recommend the books because they tie up the details from the game, and are really cool.
