Epic’s Cliffy “Cliffy B” Bleszinski B just told a huge crowd of developers at 2012′s GDC that when starting up a developer, forget Xbox Live, PSN, iOS, Android and Windows phones, and instead make games for PC. Condemning the way Microsoft and Sony treat indies, and dismissing mobile gaming, the Unreal developer said that the PC was the only place to start.
Step into the extraordinary universe of "Scrapper," the visionary comic book masterpiece brought to life by acclaimed game designer Cliff Bleszinski, renowned for his iconic contributions to the gaming world with titles like Gears of War, Jazz Jackrabbit, and Unreal Tournament. In an exclusive interview, Cliffy shares his inspiring journey from the gaming industry to venturing into the realm of musicals, revealing the personal inspirations that led to the creation of "Scrapper." Drawing from his 25 years of video game experience, Bleszinski seamlessly infuses the comic with captivating action and world-building prowess.
Bridging the world's of videogames and comics has been done by the Japanese for ages. Not gonna lie I'd rather play scrapper the video game then read the comic.
Dude made some killer Unreal and Gears of War games but has been dud after dud ever since. Don't understand why people hype him up. He's a jackass to start and way to into himself.
That article sounds like it was written by cliffy himself. This douche hasn't been relevant since the xbox 360 days.
Cliffy B's Boss Key Productions had to close its doors. Here's why the end of the studio is such sad news for everyone.
I wouldn't worry about Boss Key's unemployed developers. Sure, some might have to relocate, which sucks, but it was just a few weeks ago Cliffy was asking Epic Games to stop trying to steal his team, which considering what has since happened makes Cliffy look like as big a douchebag as we've always knew him to be. But there are tons of jobs available for developers, so these guys will ultimately be okay.
I don't think the term "creatively bankrupt" has ever applied as perfectly to a studio as it does to Boss Key games. They literally tried to bank on two gaming fads without a single unique idea to contribute. They're the Great Value of gaming, although not even, cause at least Great Value products are cheap, while Boss Key was asking full price for glorified Overwatch and Fortnite clones. And then they have the GALL to publish the ideas they had for other upcoming games, ideas that actually have a spark of creativity to them, as if to make us feel guilty by saying "Look at what you deprived yourselves of by not supporting our mediocre-ass games!" Cry me a goddamn river.
Radical Heights is from the team behind LawBreakers, but it already looks like succeeding where that infamous shooter failed.
Indeed. It's far worse.
Not sure how many times people have to witness train wrecks like this in the making to just accept your instinct, but, anyone who's been around for even 5+ years, should see the caliber of stinker this is going to be.
Effortless, copycat, uninspired trash.
Problem with psn/xbl for indies is the price to publish. PC/Android/ios is dirt cheap to get your game out there.
100% agree
Much easier too
I also agree even being a console only player. Rather they release a game with a couple problems and be able to patch it all up. Instead of releasing a game with problems that never get patched cause they can't afford the $40,000 or however much it was.
Sure cliffy, and after you've milked all the PC gamers for all their worth, turn your backs on those who made you who you are today by badmouthing the PC platform saying that we're all pirates, and then sell-out to the console mouthbreathers.
Thanks cliffy.
