I am interested....
"It will be a PC experience that will harken back to a certain type of game that we cut our teeth on, if you know what I'm saying." Bleszinski went on to say that "a lot of these kids playing Call of Duty, I don't think they know what a proper arena shooter is" and that he wouldn't "work with the old guard" on this potential new project.

Nor the same thing. Also, CliffyB expressed a desire, not a fleshed out plan he's going to pursue.

The concept art he's shown is so fucking horrible and is SO CliffyB. He's got these giant (literally) basketball players with some kind of cybernetic shins or some shit. I assume these are his arena combatants lmao. This guy has no sense of style.

I usually don't trash developers but this guy is such an arrogant, borderline clueless creep. Always has been.

The style of Unreal Tournament put me off. Everything looked skinny and weak; the characters, the weapons :down:

Tsakali: That was true of UT3 and some 2k3-4 models, but they also had these unbearably stupid models in the joker/8-ball style that were just fucking stupid. Egyptians. etc, etc, etc. There was so much retarded looking shit that was infuriatingly juvenile.

Granted, it's Epic's art director that's ultimately responsible, arguably. But somebody had to sign off on this shit, and everything I know about "CliffyB," from coining that stupid fucking name, to the way he dresses (and dressed), to the way he tweets, to his smugness, right down to his trophy wife, tells me he thinks this shit is actually cool.

Ugh what a fagg0t.

On Irrational Games' website there's a podcast from Ken Levine with Cliff Bleszinski and I must say, Cliff says some pretty insightful stuff there.

Isn't this the same douche that kept saying PC gaming was dead 5 years ago to justify not having to port over his bland console cover shooters to a platform that prefers high quality games instead?
