As promised during Microsoft's keynote, the inside look at the production of Gears of War is airing on MTV's more music oriented (but, but, but) sister site MTV2 tonight. Sure, we all remember the disappointment of the Xbox 360's MTV debut, but Gears of War: The Race to E3 has the right idea. According to the media alert, production is being handled by LivePlanet (the Project Greenlight guys) and Geoff Keighley (who actually knows a thing or two about games), so you can start setting your expectations unreasonably high now. The show airs tonight at 10PM Eastern/Pacific on MTV2. Don't worry about missing it, it'll air again and again and again.
Check out an additional clip from the show of CliffyB meeting world's richest gamer, Bill Gates (embedded after the break.) Apparently Bill likes the chainsaw/gun combo.

"Geoff Keighley (who actually knows a thing or two about games)"
I CAN'T STAND that guy. He came across as such an arrogant ass when he was on G4TV.com. In addition to that he bashed Nintendo left and right and sounded like your typical anti-Nintendo goofball. His arguments in the DS vs. PSP segments on the show were pretty pathatic too.
/end rant
As for the special...it kind of sucks that it is only a half hour (according to my DISHnetwork guide). Is it only a half hour or is my guide fubar?

Damn, after seeing this show I'm pretty skeptical about an 06 release. It looked like they didn't have much playable content. Right up until E3 they're arguing about the AI, Chainsaw, gameplay etc. I was under the Impression the game was much farther along in production.
