Gears of War 3 goes behind the scenes to discuss the end

When Gears of War 3 hits this September, it will mark the end of an era. The franchise has become one of the most important and recognizable games of this generation of consoles, and after several years as one of the Xbox 360’s flagship exclusive titles, the trilogy comes to a conclusion. There may or may not still be further GoW games in the future, but the primary story of Marcus Fenix and his now shattered society will reach its finale.

In the video below, the developers at Epic Games talk a bit about the world that players will enter when they play GoW3. It is a society that has already collapsed, and the survivors are simply those that are too stubborn to die. There is no military, and the governments of the world have fallen. All that is left is a handful of former COGs that embark on one last, desperate mission.

Check out the video below, and look for Gears of War 3 as an Xbox 360 exclusive on September 20.

The best Power Armor in Fallout 4 and where to find each set
Fallout 4 key art featuring the power armor suit hung up in an armory.

From the very first Fallout game, the Power Armor has been every wastelander's dream to pilot. This hulking suit of armor can make your normally squishy Vault Dweller nigh unkillable in Fallout 4. But there's more than just one type of Power Armor, and each one has different stats and requirements to wear. Not only that, but some you might find one piece at a time and need to build yourself, while others can be found as a complete set. If you want to make even a Deathclaw think twice about attacking you, only the best Power Armor will do. Here are the best suits in Fallout 4 and where to find them.
Raider Power Armor

This is the only Power Armor in Fallout 4 that even a base-level player can wear right off the bat. While that's great, it does mean it's the weakest option out there. The best stats you can get with it are 500 damage resistance, 250 energy resistance, and 1,050 radiation resistance for a total rating of 1,800. It's great for the early game if you can snag one, but is quickly outclassed by everything else on this list. A guaranteed spawn for this armor is in the cave right beside Skylanes Flight 1665 on your map.
