Gears of War 2 Trailer - Rendezvous E3 2008

Gears of War 2 Trailer from E3 2008.
I have a Rendezvous with Death
by Alan Seeger:

I have a rendezvous with Death
At some disputed barricade,
When Spring comes back with rustling shade
And apple-blossoms fill the air
I have a rendezvous with Death
When Spring brings back blue days and fair.

It may be he shall take my hand
And lead me into his dark land
And close my eyes and quench my breath
It may be I shall pass him still.
I have a rendezvous with Death
On some scarred slope of battered hill,
When Spring comes round again this year
And the first meadow-flowers appear.

God knows 'twere better to be deep
Pillowed in silk and scented down,
Where Love throbs out in blissful sleep,
Pulse nigh to pulse, and breath to breath,
Where hushed awakenings are dear...
But I've a rendezvous with Death
At midnight in some flaming town,
When Spring trips north again this year,
And I to my pledged word am true,
I shall not fail that rendezvous.

I have a Rendezvous with Death

The narration is from a poem by Alan Seeger, an American poet during the early 20th century.

[ParasiteArtist]

Yup; also, the complete poem is in description.

[Luftwaffel]

Amazing voice acting, I'd love to know who that is. it also helps that the poem kicks ass, and even though they splcied it up, it still works perfectly, if not better. Well done.

Goosebump-inducing super trailer!

[stoneshatter12]

only one thing would make this cooler, is at the end of the vid, like when the cam goies down aafter the blood splatter on the screen, would be to see a locust arm fall to the floor :D
