Gears of War… Golf?

In an effort to prove to a Korean developer that the Unreal Engine 3 could be used to make casual games, Epic Games launched an internal spin-off project: Gears of War Golf!
They took Marcus Fenix from Gear, and put him on the links. After that, says Epic’s Mark Rein, “We got an animator to make a golf swing for Marcus Fenix, and then a programmer took one of the Gears levels and added some mounds and stuff to make a course.”
The game took only a day to make, and utilizes the Gears grenade launcher mechanics to aim and hit the ball. There’s even a fly-by preview of the course. Unfortunately, we’ll never see this one in stores, but it would still be cool to try out once or twice.
Haha..
I would like to see that!
That would be retarded
nice nice
now if only people would come up with this sort of thing more often, life would be a great laugh
