“Match Made in Hell” month continues, as Microsoft Game Studios and “Gears of War” developer Epic Games wake the dead with a celebrity launch event at the famed Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles

To celebrate the upcoming Emergence Day, several lucky gamers will win the chance to play the highly-anticipated Xbox 360 title, “Gears of War,” prior to launch and party with celebrities living and dead at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles on Thursday, Oct. 26 at 12:01 a.m.

Thrown by Microsoft Game Studios in advance of the title’s Nov. 12 release, this exclusive event will be hosted by members of the “Gears of War” development team, including Lead Designer Cliff Bleszinski. In keeping with the bone-chilling theme, developers, industry luminaries and Tinseltown’s hottest young talent will be mixing and mingling in a real mausoleum, at the famous Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles.

This one-of-a-kind venue is a working cemetery that's the final resting place of some of Hollywood's greatest stars, making it the perfect locale to welcome this horrific game to the Xbox 360.
