No Epic Games Coming Out This Year

 Many people were expecting a Gear of War 3 announcement last week at GDC, considering the first two games had their debut at previous GDCs, but this year its a bit different.
We actually got some news from from Epic Games VP Mark Rein, that was the complete opposite at GDC this year.
 "We don't have any games coming out in 2010, so from a games standpoint, it's more about our customers' games, right? Already this year we've seen some pretty great games this year-- Mass Effect 2, Bioshock 2, and Arkham Asylum's coming out in 3D, the GOTY version, so that'll be kinda cool."
Even though Epic isn't releasing anything from their studio directly this year, you can be sure that they are hard at work on Gears of War 3, and of course their Unreal Engine.
Personally I thought that Gears of War 2 was pretty lacking in overall gameplay, and so I think its for the better that Epic isn't going to rush out Gears 3 this year. Then again, I'm sure Microsoft wants to give Halo: Reach as big of a spotlight as possible this year, and so we might see many other major releases getting pushed back a bit this year.
