the scene where he pet the cougars nose before going out on the field really got to me, because if you ever played sports you know the little thing you do before the game to give you luck, just hit me.
absolutely one of the best emotional moments in gaming. not some forced horseshit. by now in the series you grew to love cole. he was the tough guy, the showman. but you never really got to connect with what he lost. then this scene came out of nowhere. and suddenly you realise he wasnt just some meathead douchebag. he really was someone important in his world. fuck the locust.
I actually loved this part the most, it gave us a better look into Cole's backstory, made him more of a human being. In fact, I was hoping that we got to play as Baird, Dom, Dizzy, Hoffman, or newcomers like Clay and Sam, so we get a better look at them as actual 3 dimensional characters. GoW3 was alright, but this aspect probably would have made it better in the story department. I am not sure why they stopped with Cole though.
I love this scene. I played Football 7 years ... last year I had to end my time because of inyuries. This scene remind me how awesome american football is. - greetz from germany -
I remember this exact moment when I was playing with my brother and I was at pretty young age and my heart was racing at this scene ohh those days of me being 2nd player
Epic somehow made a meathead football jock in to a character we can root for and sympathize with.

He reminds me do much of Flash Gordon. Why? Because in the 1980's movie version of "Flash Gordon", Gordon was a football player who saved the world from the impending tyrany of Emperor Ming from the planet Mongo. And there was this one scene where Gordon fought a few of Ming's soldiers by making it look like a football game.
@rmefail that is how you know its a great game im a game designer and it just amazing when people catch your vision not many things can do that i say creating games is a art and should be epic made you care about them they work hard and achieve there goal to "you" the player it just makes game designers like me when people do that just fell great and love there job even more.
They should make a Thrashball video game with all the Gears of War characters including the ones from the previous games, you could get Marcus's father, Queen Mira hell you could get RAAM! And their overall would be 87, 90 but Cole would be 100 why cause he's the "COLE TRAIN" BABY!!!!!!
when baird says your right about the smells lingering forever if i was cole i would be like BITCH!! CHAINSAW TIME!!!! and cut him in half Thumbs up if you agree
You know, its these tiny (non-violent) moments that makes video game characters so...human. With one quote or action, you can flesh out someone from an emotionless goon to something...human. Or maybe I'm just high, I dunno.
At first, I thought the Cole Train was just a funny guy. Though he has a football type of voice, I thought he was just an ordinary black, cool dude. But then, watching this scene, I was right on the football voice. This dude, the Cole Train, has got to be one of the most awesome dudes I have ever seen in Video Game history. I'll tell ya, I would put him in my Fantasy Football Team! XD
Am i the only one who thought he was gunna get sniped when he was standing there at the top of the stair case kissing to the audience... thats what games do, have epic moments like this.. then kill the person off.
Top 5 favorite characters: 1) Carmine(any brother) 2) Marcus Fenix 3) Dom 4) Cole 5) Anya I would put Baird on that list, cause I love how he's a douche and adds up more humor to the series but it's a top 5 lol
@Wayf3reHD Its not really football its Thrashball. Very similar to football just the more brutal Serra version. This has been Josh welcoming you to the word of Nerd facts.
@rmefail What do you expect when it's got such an epic story aswell as amazing characters, you definatly get pulled into it all, and it's been one hell of a journey
You know what i feel like playing Madden NFL 12 right now and create a new player, you know who that is the "COLE TRAIN" Baby!!!! just think about it Cole on NFL 12 he'll rip 'em apart.
Man, when this game first came out I shed a single, manly tear for Cole
I shed a lot more tears for Dom and Marcus.
If you have ever played football in your life and go back to an old locker where you used to play, this same exact type of flashback happens.
Explosions too? 0-0
That would bring a tear in my eye
What, explosions?
Chichopuente Man rugby was fun. I'd do it again if I could
The moment when you realize that even someone as upbeat as cole had to leave behind his life and everything he loved for a war nobody saw coming
the scene where he pet the cougars nose before going out on the field really got to me, because if you ever played sports you know the little thing you do before the game to give you luck, just hit me.

This is my favorite part of the game.

1:27 to 1:30 got my feelings so much when e was walking to the stairs
Yeah, this was really touchinig. What's great about Gears of War is how human the characters are, you can really relate to how they feel.
Cole Train doesn't go woo-woo... it goes WOOOO!!!
I cried a little :,)
Gears of war is just the best game ever, period
I shed a tear at this moment it was awesome
wish cole was realy a football player
Wow, I feel bad for watching all these heartfelt seens instead of getting my x-box fixed and playing them, but I can't stop watching them!

I love Cole, he's awesome, would have been cool if they somehow added a Thrashball game-type to Gears of War.
Man I miss games like this. Maybe it’s just nostalgia. However , I felt very invested in games from this era of gow 1-3 . More so than games from now.
Yeah, felt like gaming was in its prime
They should make a Thrashball video game with all the Gears of War characters including the ones from the previous games, you could get Marcus's father, Queen Mira hell you could get RAAM! And their overall would be 87, 90 but Cole would be 100 why cause he's the "COLE TRAIN" BABY!!!!!!
What is the name of the sound track that starts at 1:00 and ends at 1:40? It's so goddamn perfect for this moment in the game.
forgottenchallenge Hanover's favorite son
No other game is gonna have a epic
emotional story line. Like wid maria and dom. GEARS OF WAR 3
my favorite gears of war 3 scene!
when baird says your right about the smells lingering forever if i was cole i would be like BITCH!! CHAINSAW TIME!!!! and cut him in half Thumbs up if you agree
Loved the objective..." score a point for The Cougars!"
One of my favorite parts in the game
I can relate to this scene because of being a football player..the feeling is monumental..
Best moment Ever....
No seriously I liked this moment though lol
You know, its these tiny (non-violent) moments that makes video game characters so...human. With one quote or action, you can flesh out someone from an emotionless goon to something...human. Or maybe I'm just high, I dunno.
1:27 is where I get goosebumps.
At first, I thought the Cole Train was just a funny guy. Though he has a football type of voice, I thought he was just an ordinary black, cool dude.
But then, watching this scene, I was right on the football voice.
This dude, the Cole Train, has got to be one of the most awesome dudes I have ever seen in Video Game history.
I'll tell ya, I would put him in my Fantasy Football Team! XD
correction thrashball not football
Am i the only one who thought he was gunna get sniped when he was standing there at the top of the stair case kissing to the audience... thats what games do, have epic moments like this.. then kill the person off.
Top 5 favorite characters:
1) Carmine(any brother)
2) Marcus Fenix
3) Dom
4) Cole
5) Anya
I would put Baird on that list, cause I love how he's a douche and adds up more humor to the series but it's a top 5 lol
@TheMegaBoy100 Im a Ps3 Gamer, and i love this game actually ;)
And you should Play Uncharted 3 one's it comes out.
So nope!, no fanboy there!.
“You ever gonna let anyone else have that ball?”
Ball is life
Why would you compare this to MW3? Why is there always someone that has to make a CoD comparison, rather don't mention that crap at all
Not going to lie I almost cried a little when I first saw this and I'm not even a sport fan.
@Wayf3reHD Its not really football its Thrashball. Very similar to football just the more brutal Serra version. This has been Josh welcoming you to the word of Nerd facts.
-Cole Train! Whoo whoo!
- :| Cole Train dont make "Whoo whoo" its WHOOOO!!! >:D

Epic Games should make a thrashball xbox live arcade game.
RIP Dom
Hey Warf3rehd, its Thrashball, not football. Just saying...in the description...

That ball would be difficult to hold due to the contact
If the level ended at 3:30, I would have laughed so hard but then felt sad later
