Gears of War Cliff Bleszkinski dips into Killzone 3

XMNR: Just because Epic Games' Cliff Bleszinski is seen as the face of the Xbox 360 exclusive Gears of War series and the newly released Bulletstorm for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 doesn't mean he won't support the competition. In fact, it's not so much about competition with him as he mentions that he picked up Killzone 3.

More people need to think like this man.

nveenio4813d ago

Of course he plays the competition. It would be bad business (and just plain stupid) not to. Do you think that Sony and Microsoft don't own each others' consoles for studying how to improve their own?

MintBerryCrunch4813d ago

in the end, he knows how to be humble...i know that his competition will do the same when Gears comes out

being a fan of games is one thing, being a fanboy?

well thats a totally different topic

MaxXAttaxX4813d ago

Of course he has to play other games.
Where would his ideas for his own come from?

DaTruth4813d ago

I almost got a job as a developer, but they told me I'd have to stop playing other games! /s

acedoh4813d ago

You don't get in this business because you dislike games. Obviously for these developers it's a passion to do what they do. For most it's really not a war.

anh_duong4813d ago

todays killzone owner is tomorrows gears supporter and vice versa.. why the hell would you want to diss the opposition and alieante pottential future customers..

this is where fanboyism differs to supporting a football club:

people don't often change the club they support

but fanboys can often - and do - become multi-console supporters..

hence to alienate the opposition fanboy is really bad business.. the opposite approach should be taken..

Yes that was a great comment from him. I think PS3 vs 360 rants arent as bad as they used to be

edhe4813d ago

Not sure about that: sure the middleground has mellowed but it's pushed the extremists further out and the insane rants are now a little cuckoo.

Fun though.

TheGuardianFID4813d ago

Classy Cliff, very classy, I have both K3 and BulletStorm, the best of both!!! 8)

TheDivine4813d ago

Wait what? Ps3 folk always hate cliffy. Hes a dick, bla bla bla. He says he bought one ps3 game and yall are on his nuts? You people sell out faster than the new iphones lol. At least stand by what you say and believe. I like cliffy, always have, great games and cool dude.

nycrekid4813d ago

The Divine

I don't know how you took one person's totally innocent comment about having both games and turned it into your retarded rant bro. Seek some help.

BlackTar1874813d ago

The divine paints with 1 GIANNNNTTTTT PAINTBRUSH

TheDivine4813d ago

didnt mean to insult you u might like him and nothing wrong w having both i was just pointing out the hypocracy of people here hating something w/o trying or blindly hating cliffy because he makes gears and then praising him one article later. just how everyone hated valve and now they love them, dont hate talented developers because they make games on another system.

Dee_914813d ago

yea because when 1 ps3 user hates him every ps3 user hate him
i understand your train of thought perfectly

as you can see I just used it

Boody-Bandit4813d ago (Edited 4813d ago )

TheDivine
All you proved is how narrow minded and a complete waste of bandwidth some N4G members can be. Yeah every 360 consumer thinks the sun rises and sets on Cliffy B's backside. /s

On topic: Cliff is a gamer so of course he plays a wide variety of games on different platforms. A lot of developers do the same.

moparful994813d ago

@Divine You are generalizing all ps3 users under that banner... Am I a ps3 lover? Without a doubt but I am not too feeble to appreciate other games.. I've played nearly every exclusive on the 360 because I play a game before passing judgment on it.. NOT whether it has a 360 or ps3 logo on it...

BiggCMan4813d ago

I'm certainly not changing my opinions on him, I don't give a damn that picked up Killzone 3. To this day I will think of him as an arrogant dickhead who doesn't have much skill at creating video games. Now isn't that funny?

Mmmkay4813d ago

i love his so much I'll let him choose his favorite 360 attachment and I'll gently put it up his ass...

Dude4204813d ago

@ BiggCMan

What I don't get is that you think he's a dickhead when he really isn't.

Remember the article that made it look like he was bashing Japanese games? The author was called out as Cliff had to clarify what he was talking about. He loves Japanese games.

There was another article where the author did some selective quoting to make Cliff look bad. What happened? We get the full interview and it turns out that's not what Cliff really meant.

Another article pointed out that Cliff wanted to bring down UC2. Turns out, it was just a joke and everyone had a laugh.

He makes a joke on KZ3 but fanboys still think he's being serious, now we see he supports KZ3.

And you think he's still an arrogant dickhead?

*facepalm*

BkaY4813d ago

off topic : is that you Killuminati_NZ ?

ontopic: "There was another article where the author did some selective quoting to make Cliff look bad. What happened? We get the full interview and it turns out that's not what Cliff really meant."<<<<&l t;<--------this

ppl paint him a dickhead by using his one quote... way out of proportion.... dont turn game industry to film industry... For Fuk Sake

Newsflash, all game developers do. they don't play games just because it's not on their development console. Cliffy B isn't special.

Jaffe plays Gears, Halo, and Mario Galaxy! OMG!!!

What's that thing on the box art above the Socom 4 beta dog tags?

TheLastGuardian4813d ago

As if this game didn't already have enough logos on the box art.

TheGameFoxJTV4813d ago

But, But, what about the 360!? He's a traitor. HE MUST BURN IN HELL. Or not.

I wish more consumers would take on the attitudes of the companies. None of them are dumb enough to actually prefer one console over another. Only people who just love to fall in line and bend over to others can truely be called fanboys. If that applies to you, disagree all you want. 'Cause at the end of the day, only the fanboys lose. Everyone else enjoys gaming while they bitch and moan.

blumatt4813d ago (Edited 4813d ago )

Well said, man. Well said. While, I do strongly support PS3 exclusives, there are tons of great third party titles out there that are good too. That's what it's all about: The games. (<-in the words of Kevin Butler. haha)

Yeah Baby!

There you go free advertisement for Killzone 3.

I hope he will also play Uncharted 3.

Christopher4813d ago

Most developers already support games. It's a large portion of the online community that seems to be unable to do the same.

um what? If anything this makes him sound like a 360fanboy trying to hit on PS3fanboys. (though his comment history shows he is neither)

Cliff says the strangest thing, thats all i have against him, other wise yes he does seem like a great person.

but he does come off as the dane cook of the industry.... some think he's a genius others think he's just good.... seems like a ok guy

btk4814d ago

He is appreciating the work that other devs put into games like KZ3 and would like to enjoy (and study) good games. I would not complain if they bring Gears of War to PS3, o Halo for that matter. A good game is a good game, regardless if it is on a ZX Spectrum, Wii, PS3 or your iPhone.

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor354d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar354d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg354d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz149354d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance1138354d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim354d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC354d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance1138354d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle354d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix76354d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger354d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca354d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy354d ago (Edited 354d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal354d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright354d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1105d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1105d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1105d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1105d ago

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

1105d ago
Vegamyster1105d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1105d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1105d ago (Edited 1105d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

MadLad1104d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1105d ago

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip

Top 10 PS3 Games We Hope Come Back On PS5

While Xbox has committed to backwards compatibility spanning four generations, PlayStation has continued their stance that the feature isn't important. Well, it is! I'm hoping these PlayStation 3 classics that skipped the PS4 entirely show up again on the PS5 for everyone to enjoy.

Knightofelemia1283d ago

Resistance, Dead Space franchise, Splatterhouse, Lollipop Chainsaw, Brutal Legends, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved Journey to the West, Mass Effect franchise. Also wouldn't mind seeing a new Wild Arms game remake or HD remaster, the Xenosaga trilogy, a new Parasite Eve, a new Dino Crisis just too many games to list that are forgotten and left in the dark now adays.

Sciurus_vulgaris1283d ago

The PS3 is difficult to emulate. PS3 backwards compatibility on PS5 would require translation from PowerPC to x86. Additionally the PS5 likely would have to mimic the PS3’s GPU and CPU.

This is what pops up on my web browser. So I can't even read the site. So, forget that. They don't need my data.

But let's get something straight. OG Xbox had around 1,001 games. How many are BC on Series X? **39** THIRTY NINE. Come on! That's wack BC. You can't tell me that's a complete list. Talking about commitment. Game preservation. Ridiculous. Covers nothing.

How many games released on Xbox 360? Around 2085. How many are BC?
568. That's it. Around 1,517 are **MISSING** Stop playing. Tired of that nonsense.

Anyway, the only games I really want from PS3 that would be awesome are Motorstorm and MGS4. I'll take BC. I'll take a remaster. I'll take a remake. If not those, then Killzone 2. And in VR, maybe Sports Champions, House of the Dead Overkill and the Time Crisis games.

That's all I need. But we've gone over BC again and again in every possible way. It wasn't that important because Sony sold 115 million consoles without it. That's proof enough with no outcry. And PS5 has damn near all 4,000+ PS4 games BC. It's not PS1,PS2 and PS3. But that's plenty. I'll take more but you get what you get.
