Facebook is being employed to broaden the influence of Epic Games' new and final installment of its trilogy, Gears of War 3. By "liking" Gears of War 3 on Facebook, you are given a "code" to unlock a unique character named "Griffin," that you can play as in the game. Also notable, his downloadable character is voiced by none other than famous rapper Ice Cube. If gaming companies do this more often, which I suspect they will, video games in general will start to be played by more people on more systems worldwide; yes, even more so than now. Currently, there are several products competing for your home entertainment space: Xbox 360, Playstaion 3, Nintendo Wii, an internet capable Blu-Ray player, a Computer, Boxy Box etc. With such an amount of free advertising being paired up with the gaming industry, these companies will no doubt "take it to the next level." %^D
