I really hope so!!
Microsoft will launch Gears Of War 3 in early April 2011, a trusted US publishing source has told Edge.

The first teaser trailer for the third person shooter is expected to debut next month on April 8, exactly one year ahead of the game’s pencilled in release date. A full reveal is due at E3 in June.

While it hasn’t been officially announced yet, Gears Of War 3 is currently in development at series creator Epic Games. It will continue the story set out in the first two games, which centres on humankind's battle for survival against the nightmarish Locust Horde.

Gears Of War debuted on Xbox 360 in 2006 and on PC a year later. A follow up was released for Microsoft’s home console in 2008.

We understand that the game could be completed as early as this year, but that Microsoft is keen to release it during a different window to Halo: Reach – rumoured to be launching in September 2010 – and Natal, which is set to arrive this holiday.

“Microsoft’s keen to avoid a clash with Halo: Reach and wants Natal to own Christmas. That’s why we won’t be seeing Gears Of War 3 until next year, but expect a major marketing push ahead of its release,” said our source.

Epic vice president Mark Rein said this week that the developer won’t be releasing a game this year as it has chosen to focus on supporting titles made by customers of its Unreal Engine.

I guess we will see?
Unreal Engine 3 and Gears of War series developer Epic Games is looking to maintain their “visual leadership,” design director Cliff Bleszinski said at the Game Developers Conference last week.

“…the bar continues to rise,” he said in a chat conducted at the event. “We got ahead of everybody with Gears 1, [with] Gears 2 we kept that, and with future products we want to definitely maintain our visual leadership”.

Epic used the GDC venue to show off improvements made to their popular game engine. “When you see what we’re doing with this [the image above is from the presentation], it’s going to blow your mind,” VP Mark Rein promised.

Speaking of the Gears of War series in general, Bleszinski feels the series “still has a lot of growth.”

“I think Gears is a huge and wonderful franchise that’s been very successful for us. But I think we can always try harder. I think we can always have better online mutiplayer. I think we can make a game that’s sticker and sticks in players’ heads more. I think we can tell stories even better,” he said, clearly hinting at the unconfirmed Gears of War 3.

Furthermore: “.. we’re perfectionists and we always want to try harder … maybe there’ll be some announcements in the future that’ll kind of tease into some of that stuff.”

I could say that about a lot of franchises out there that are not half as good as Gears, yet still pump out the same crap time after time, Gears Rocks!, well the SP and Horde do anyway. :)

Well, it was planned as a trilogy all along, wasn't it? No doubt it'll continue after Gears 3, but i guess after that it'll be like the star wars movies or something. Episodes 1, 2 and 3 are all there, you just try to ignore them and remember the good times instead :P

I mean, no matter how many shitty sequels come out, the first two games will still be good. I'm not too worried about the franchise per se as much as a talented team just making the same game over and over when they could be making fresh experiences.

Thing is though, mechanically Gears rapes other games frequently. Most games that derive their mechanics from Gears still struggle to meet even the first game's standards in terms of that awesome gameplay cycle it has going for it.

I'm not a fan of brown, I'm not a fan of barking space marines, I think the Locust are pretty boring (though 2 throws some more interesting "culture" stuff in there for sure) but it all comes around to gameplay in the end. Gears 2 made some pretty amazing strides with the gameplay of Gears, opening it up to a 360 degree shooter by creating locales and situations where the same cover is constantly "redefined" and designing gameplay elements like the meat shields in such a way that moving from cover to cover under active short range pressure is possible, something I thought for sure would break the game.

It's just obvious that Cliffy B and the team working on Gears are extremely clever, and as long as they can make significant improvements to the Gears formula in a way that furthers it as a game, I couldn't possibly care less about the elements they kinda spray on top once it's done, including justifying more games *in the story*.

Well that's fine if that is your opinion, but you didn't post that thinking it's a fact right? I'd say Gears has made so many fans for a good reason, a lot of people really loved that game. I personally enjoyed it a lot at first, but am not really a huge fan by any means, except for the excellent horde mode which I do love to death with the right friends.

I can see why someone would say Gears is certainly one of the best new franchises to come out of this generation. Uncharted and Mass Effect are both amazing as well though no doubt. As for the other two, surprise for sure but if that's your opinion that's perfectly fine.
