@ape007 lol oh thats the laugh of the day, hope you was being funny. best game ever, my stomach hurts after reading that bubbles +

Yes Element, he is responsible.

Like the Captain of the Titanic, it doesn't matter is he was holding the wheel. It's his responsibility and he owns it.

Of course it never happened because so many sites gave the game 90+ scores and ignored the glaring issues. Look at the number of reviews that didn't say one peep about the problems.

Here's your check.

Other games were lambasted for not having co-op, but Gears received a pass on a completely broken multiplayer that took fornever to patch.

You're right; he has nothing to do with the networking......obviously he has MUCH more credibility in this region than we're giving him.

@ morganfell

I see your up to your regular 360 bashing douche.

like all the fanboys on this site you place cliff as the lone developer of epic games all by himself.

what about Mike Capps the president? Rod Fergusson the senior producer? Lee Perry the gameplay designer? technical director Joe Graf? or Tim Sweeney technical director, the guy responsible for the gears3 multiplayer code?

no forget those people, you blame cliff because he's the one on camera promoting the game.

I fail to see your point. What do scores have to do with optical formats? Half Life is better rated than all the games you posted and it is is a previous gen game...as for multiplats looking worse on the ps3 this has to do with the devs not the format. Besides you fail to mention that ps3 exclusive are some of the most stunning console games and there are many multiplats looking better on ps3 (LA Noire,Final fantasy,Brink,etc) and the best part is they are on 1-get this-1 disk only. So explain to my obviously poor judgement how exactly IS blu-ray holding back Sony? The comparison you chose to do is a double edged sword and if don't look at it from both sides...you will get cut...

the comedian, Hl2 is from past generations, it could fit easily on dvd, im talking about the importance of blu-ray in current generation of gaming

not important in a MAJOR WAY

The fact that you took one of the highest rated games of Xbox and slightly lower rated games of PS3 is complete bs. AND TBH, they both wreck in terms of graphics and its not about graphics. Its about content which is why DVD is worse and holding back the PS3 owners.

Gameplay > Graphics
and Content is a major part of the gameplay.

Not important? Well let's take a closer look at that statement. First and foremost do you know how much content has been cut from various multiplatform games only to be added as dlc afterwards? There have been multiple "stealth" occasions of that. Good examples would be large games like fallout 3.Do you honestly think that all the dlc packages where created afterwards? At first you had developers at bethesda saying they were worried as to how they were going to fit the game on 1 disk due to its immense size...close to launch and somehow they miraculously come out to say they did. I'll take an educated guess here and say they made it at the cost of content. And then you have the games whose content was not cut. FF,LA Noire,DS2 which were just as good if not better on blu-ray and at the convenience of a single disk. Storage space was not to much of a foreseeable problem when this gen started that is why I can see where you are coming from. But you have to understand where I'm coming from and see that blu-ray is needed from this gen onwards if we are to see any sort of substantial improvement in the next gen. And why are we going that far? Rage is coming out sooner or later and by the looks of it the best console version (I'm saying console PC elitists) will most probably be on ps3 and many games are soon to follow from the pattern that has surfaced over the past couple of years.
Edit:a couple grammar errors fixed

''blu-ray is holding back sony I guess ''

Look what the desperation is making you to say.

@the comedian. Rage was cut by a third(in game maparea) purely because of DVD9 on 360 and not all 360s having a HDD

@Qwertyz's daft-"make more discs":it's indicative of a naivety about the issue from 360only gamers who don't want to believe they have suffered(let alone C and PS3 gamers) because MS were cheap and went with DVD9 rather than sticking HDDVD in at launch(and avoiding that rip off add on)when we all have, cotinue to do so and it gets worse every year. FF13 WAS both cut in size and quality,imho, because SE coudn't swallow the inevitable losses they'd have taken had it been the full game and not cut and compressed to within an inch of making it look and sound like a PS2 game which ran badly anyway. PS3 gamers had content cut which will now fin it's way onto FF13-2-no one else wonder how that game's arrivig PRE Versus?It's cos 99% of it was n the cutting room floor ready to press. Whatever, FF13 would have needed 8/9 discs to both be the full experience AND run like SEwanted(or just like the PS3 version we eventally got)and with MS's ?OTTroyalty chargeas for an issue THEYcreated that's just unfair-o TEIR gamers and even worse on PC and PS3gamers whoshould have got te full game.

Fact is we don'tknow juus what other games like LAN were cut to bits because of this issue, how many games not able to risk a second or third disc because of their budgets not covering the risk of royalties(over two) or the plain costs of producing extra discs, their pressing, storage and haulage and packaging all adds up-have been made in lacklustre or shortened form to get round DVD? To work around MS insisting Core models could play ALL 360games until it was THEM and 4Gig Slims being unable to play co-opon Reach-the game designed to push THAT design change FFS?

No, and Ape is a top boy but very wrong on this point to my mind(he's a gamer, a real gamer, but in this instance he believes what MS says a bit too much for me-sorry mate,you knows I love ya!). Sure,some Sony fantarts willmake the number of affected games WAY over inflated but the games ARE there. I feel Crysis would have been both bigger and better were it not for DVD9 on 360 and the desire for parity on console and ot too big a gap to PC and I believe this has happened with a decent number of multiplats available on all three or just the two consoles.

How many games have had to cut stuff or quality because they simply can't afford to go to extra discs? How often has that cost us all and cost us later in DLC which would usually have already been on the disc? IDK but it's happened more than I reckon we'd think.

wow, ps3 trolls are out in force!!!!
