Gears of War 3 isn't just content to sell you weapon skins for 3600 MS Points -- it's getting some story-based content as well. Epic's Cliff "Passive Aggressive" Bleszinski has promised "unique" story-based DLC that won't star previous protagonists -- taking a page from Grand Theft Auto IV.
"We've confirmed we'll be doing campaign DLC," he said. "One thing I can tell you is that you're not going to see Marcus or Dom or Cole in it. I believe that DLC should be unique and cool, like Lost and the Damned, Gay Tony, Mad Moxie's Underdome Riot.
"All those kind of things. DLC's the place where you play and have fun. So that's one thing that's an indication of where things may be going in the future."
Both Grand Theft Auto IV and Borderlands had some pretty well-received downloadable content, so it'll be interesting to see what Epic can cook up.

U still mad bro?
typical Cliff, don't let me go all unreal on your ass, chubby boy
punk ass...
WHAT SORT OF BIZZARO WORLD DID I STEP INTO!!!
I sure hope not.
Oh thank goodness...I thought it was the apocalypse for a second there.
I wish more dev's would do this.
I'm confused - are you interested or is this not getting that boner up?
I just about demolished my keyboard when I read that and spewed my morning coffee laughing. I hope that shit makes it onto the next Comments of the Week; moreover, I hope I live to actually see that DLC pack released.
Side lesson: never laugh while you've got a mouthful of hot coffee. Your sinuses will hate you forever for the scalding sensation. Worse than carbonation or alcohol.
Moxxi wasn't my favorite, but claptrap's robolution was much worse.
Thanks, I hope I don't owe you a new keybord?
I would play this too, imagine the backstory :
The Cogs (yes cogs) are rioting in the streets of Sera demanding better gay rights, but the evil Locust will have none of it!
Cliffy make it happen.
Ok
"Gay Tony-"
Ok...
"Mad Moxie's Underdome Riot."
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I was kinda expecting to see some Delta team DLC.
