Has GEARS OF WAR 3 Leaked Early?

Rumours say an early build of the game has been made available almost three months before it's retail release.

Rumors are circulating up that the highly anticipated September release of Gears of War 3 has been leaked early. A poster on the website NeoGAF said;
€œHeads up guys, a work in progress version of Gears of War 3 has been leaked. It apparently has the full single-player and all the multiplayer options. Buggy as hell, but it seems like it's all there.€
According to the poster, most of the single player gameplay is present as is the multiplayer options. In addition, because the gameplay is said to be buggy the assumption is that it's probably an early build of the game. These unfortunate leaks are sadly becoming common occurrences among big time game releases. Gears of War 3 is just the latest big name game this year that has been leaked after Crysis 2 and Killzone 3 suffered the same fate before their release dates as well. Also, I believe that this leak was done much sooner than Killzone 3 and Crysis 2, there is still almost three months before Gears of War 3 is released. The game is scheduled to ship Tuesday, September 20 in the U.S. This news is extremely disappointing for all the people at Epic who work so hard on this game and to have it stolen from them is must be terrible. If you€™re a fan of the series and don€™t want to be spoiled be careful where you read and watch videos, spoilers are going to start showing up.
