War. War never changes.
In the year 1945, my great-great grandfather, serving in the army, wondered when he'd get to go home to his wife and the son he'd never seen. He got his wish when the US ended World War II by dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The World awaited Armageddon; instead, something miraculous happened. We began to use atomic energy not as a weapon, but as a nearly limitless source of power.
People enjoyed luxuries once thought the realm of science fiction. Domestic robots, fusion-powered cars, portable computers. But then, in the 21st century, people awoke from the American dream.
Years of consumption lead to shortages of every major resource. The entire world unraveled. Peace became a distant memory. It is now the year 2077. We stand on the brink of total war, and I am afraid. For myself, for my wife, for my infant son - because if my time in the army taught me one thing: it's that war, war never changes.

An ugly CGI mess that does not fit within the continuity of the movies or the original EU now called Legends.
Star Wars The Clone Wars does not fit in legends.

A very beautiful game, where the main goal is for MMO virgins to pronounce the absolute awesomeness of the game in as many internet forums and chatrooms as possible.
What is this instancing you speak of?

Gears of War, a fictional game created by Epic Games, for the Xbox 360, is some-what like Halo, but a tad different. It is based on Sera, not Earth, and the humans are being killed by the Locusts, who are definitely NOT aliens, however, it is unknown where they came from. (I believe that the Locusts are actually humans mutated by imulsion fumes.)
Imulsion, a fictional liquid in Gears. It is located underneath Sera, and seems similar to lava (only yellow), though what exactly it is, is never explained in the game.
Little is known about the Locusts too. All that's really known is that they look half lizard and half human (without tails).
The COGs (of War), also known as the Gears (of War), are the ones fighting the Locusts. Of course, they're human, and they're being wiped out by the Locusts.
The Carmines are a family of four brothers and a mother. In the first Gears of War, Anthony Carmine dies, and in the second, Benjamin Carmine dies. This has led many people to believe that their will be two more Gears games, one for each of the Carmine brothers.
Clay is most likely the next Carmine. His name is mentioned on Ben Carmine's COG tag collectibles.
Apparently it also believed that one of the Carmines will come back and become Super Carmine and glow blue. Yep.
It is unknown what COG stands for in Gears of War...

Historical Event: The Space Race (sub-event of The Cold War); during the years after WW2, this began when "Sputnik" was launched by Russia. Hence, "Star Wars" because the Russians launched a star into the sky to blot out the sun and start an Ice Age (hence "The Cold War").
"Mommy, what is Star Wars?"
"Shut up."

A romantic clash of any sort; dramatic and exaggerated struggle between multiple parties over love affairs and inter-personal attractions within everything from a few individuals, to groups of friends, to complete strangers.
Jake: Man this summer has really been a war of the roses, hasn't it?
Mark: Yeah, Trudy and her friends gave Tommy hell for dating Kristie.
