Gears 2 in November, Ninja Gaiden 2 on June 3

In a double dose of release date news, the Game Developer's Conference has brought us two announcements sure to please fans of bloody dismemberment Gears of War and Ninja Gaiden.

At the Microsoft keynote today, Epic Games' CliffyB announced that Microsoft Games Studios and Epic are (unsurprisingly) working on a sequel to the popular Gears of War Xbox 360 game. According to a chinsaw-weilding CliffyB, the game will release November 2008 on the Xbox 360. (Trailer and CliffyB announcement video embedded below) Additionally, Tomonobu Itagaki, also speaking at the Microsoft keynote, revealed a June 3 North American release (and an early June worldwide release) for the Xbox 360-exclusive Ninja Gaiden 2.
