Gears of War Featured in Lost Planet 2?

Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago...? In a Lost Planet game? Someone tell me how the FUCK that makes any sense. My only guess is that they're just supposed to be unlockable characters, but if they are then this whole cross company character swapping needs to stop. Capcom, come up with some more original characters... You're good at it. I promise. Click the title for a link to IGN for more info. I'm still not so sure that this isn't just a joke...
