We're usually pretty skeptical about rumored release dates as developers and publishers often keep that card close to their chests -- however, we can't help but put our complete faith in a man with a name as awesome as Lester "Mighty Rasta" Speight. Yes, Mr. Rasta, who voiced Gears of War's "Cole Train", recently made an appearance at the TriForce panel at Wizard World to shoot the breeze about the company's line of GoW-related replicas. When asked about the sequel's release date, the TriForce crew remained tight lipped, though Rasta suggested asking him again on November 16.
DS and Wii Fanboy's David Hinkle was at the panel to witness the football player-turned-actor's Q+A session, and hopes to further press Mr. Rasta to discover the accuracy of his claims. Given that it falls in the game's suggested November release window, we wouldn't be surprised if Speight's date was legit.

This date is probably true. November has way too many games coming out for me, namely Left 4 Dead.

Gears of War came out on Wednesday, November 8th. I know because it was my Birthday. "Emergence Day" was a Sunday but that wasn't the release date.
It's possble MS could release it on a Sunday (Nintendo does Sunday releases all the time), it's just not likely.
@Neebs, Left 4 Dead was already delayed from August to November so I doubt it'll be delayed any further than that.

You may remember Lester from the very funny Terry Tate, Office Linebacker commercials that ran a few years ago.
