It is ok , others will.

There is an aura of arrogance that radiates from this guy

So there is a god after all...

Ok. You're such a prick...

Goodbye then, Cliffy.

Hey Cliffy, just stop making games period.

I look forward to the day when "disc-based" is removed from that sentence.

No disc based games? Didn't Microsoft have a similar idea before the XBone launch? Can't say that line of thinking got them anywhere...

Cliffy is a clown who hates used games, hence this dumba$$ assertion. Screw trying to create a game that people won't want to trade in, screw creating compelling and new experiences and extra, substantial content afterwards that will keep gamers interested....no, much better to act like a spoiled little twerp and try to railroad the industry down a path that doesn't benefit consumers. A path where people are stuck with rubbish games and can get nothing back for them, a path where refunds are not granted when games aren't fit for purpose and people are threatened with blacklisting if they perform a charge back to get their money back.
Cliffy B has made some good games, but his attitude absolutely stinks...it's a poisonous attitude where customers are treated as enemies to be conquered and duped, rather than courted and treated well with complete games that pack in lots of content. He's one of the bad ones I'm afraid.

I hope he never makes another game. Period.

We already have boatloads of generic grey and brown shooters starring meat-heads with personalities like sandpaper. If I ever see another game like that again, it will be too soon.

Please, Cliffy. Stop inflicting your awful ugly shooters on us!

Good to see a lot of people in the article rightly calling cliffy out on this pathetic stance of his.

"I don't want Gears to be my defining legacy,"

Uh cliffy, that will be your ONLY legacy. The only reason people even know who you are is because of Gears.

Yes gears was good and we thank you for it, but please stop talking, you're embarrassing yourself.

Most people dont like him because its become popular to hate him. Hes very open and direct these are qualities that are not the norm for the gaming industry.

Wow. You guys just tore him apart in here. Why is that?

Just make a good game...
Who gives a damn about legacies

never was a fan of cliffy games even i bought all gears of war everytime i m dispointed

Seriously, though, who cares if something's on physical media or not? Just make a good game and people will buy it. Cliffy B has this notion that there's only one way to be progressive in the industry and everything else is "old guard."

That kind of attitude leads to always-online and multiple layers of DRM before anyone is ready for them.

Cliffy, can you make Jazz Jackrabbit 3 already?
It's nearly two decades due.

Thanks, pumpkin.

Given how much it costs to make games and how long that takes, getting the games into the most gamers hands is not only best for all gamers, but studios and the industry.

"lead designer on the first three installments of the Gears of War franchise"

Any developer of a game old or new would be happy it's going to make more money.

August 26:
Gears of War on PlayStation
Helldivers 2 on Xbox
What a day to be a gamer!

Cliffy doing his best to be relevant and cool again.... sorry you Madde dumb decisions bro.

Yet, he was the one who bragged about it being exclusive, because he didn't like the PS3/Controller. Remember he used to attack people for asking if the game was coming to other platforms.

This guy is such a dork.

Hasn't been Xbox exclusive for a decade

Never thought I lived long enough to see this
