Microsoft and Epic Games recently announced success with their Fate of Carmine campaign. The up or down vote over whether the next Carmine character in Gears of War 3 would die has raised $150,000 in donations since July.
Players could vote by buying Xbox Live shirts for their avatars or real-life shirts for themselves reading Carmine Must Die or Save Carmine for a few Microsoft points and $20 respectively. While the votes have been totaled, people will have to wait until Gears of War 3 releases to find out the results.
