Gears of War 2 launch date hinted with a dog tag |
Ó
Still wondering when Epic Games will finally unleash Gears of War 2 for the Xbox 360? A strong case has been made via the forums when someone posted a nice theory on it based from the new splash page on the game's community site. Using seemingly random numbers from the dog tag displayed above, a code was deciphered to make sense out of the obscure.
When cross-referenced to an ASCII code table, the dog tag numbers that read "033-116-117-126-071" could be translated into "ESC N O V 9". That would make a lot of sense as it falls right into the game's release window.
Pretty clever, eh? It's a nice way to create some buzz in the community, too. We'll keep you updated for more on Gears of War 2 as soon as more word comes out.

for anybody trying to decode it themselves, each number is in octal, not dec or hex or bin
it would make sense since each gear in the artwork has 8 cogs/teeth
QJ, it looks like you've got a typo in the title:
"Gears of War 2 launch date hinted with a DOG tag" ?
