Is the picture of Marcus supposed to be when he was younger because he looks different.

So there was a knife bayonet instead of a chainsaw in the beginning? I guess this is four years before the first game.

This was probably more like 15 years ago, or even longer than that

Looks like a fake cover to me. You can see Carmine and Dom, It's the same as the cover of Gears of War, just a different background etc.
If this is real, I'm dissapointed they haven't made a awesome new cover.

Yeah if this is the real cover it would really bug me because it's very similar to the game's cover. Not background wise or anything like that just the way the characters and weapons are placed.

I hope we find out how/when they decided to attach the chainsaw. I bet there's a cool story behind it, maybe Adam Fenix developed it? He was a military scientist after all right?

that's a bit uncreative, just look at Dom and the other COG ( i doubt it's Carmine) exact same position as GoW boxart. these guys need a sense of deja vu.

Its not going to be Carmine. He was only young when he got killed, he was probably a kid at this time in the Pendulum Wars.

Thats not carmine.
Carmines like 18.
This takes place at least 14 or more years before gears of war.
Carmines a little kid.

This is the real cover, unfortunately.
It's incredibly similar to the game's cover.
I'd also like to point out that that is not a lancer; the baynoette is probably different for that reason alone. It's a bit heavier and higher calibur than a lancer, at least from a glance. I'd like to gouge someone with it, though...
Alas, from what I've read the book is about as good as the cover. Generic and uncreative. That being said, it was the wee section uploaded by OXM.
Ah, and Marcus isn't scarred half to hell. I put this between 4 and 10 years prior to the first game.

alright, just to clear things up: the pendelum wars ended right before the locust war began. the locust war had been going on for ten years before marcus got imprisoned. He was sentenced to 40 years in jail, but was only there for 4 becuz Dom rescues him at the beginning of the game, 14 years after E-day.
Yes that cover is way to similar to the game, i mean, WTF?! i like the background tho.

At the end of the day it is only the cover, its the content that matters. Although it was a bit lazy using the same cover basically.
