The world thinks you are a cretin. There is no way around it. Games are for children, apparently, and if you still play them then you are a child, or a man-child, or in some way deficient. Why is that? What can we do about it? Read on good sir, and be enlightened.

During a recent Game Rant interview, Gears of War creator CliffyB comments on Xbox-exclusive games possibly adopting multiplatform models.
Sometimes I don't get what he says half the times. He could of put gears on the playstation from the start but he's fanboyness for xbox got in the way
Well when you look at the sales perspective of ps5. It has a big audience selling over a 2 to 1 ratio. It makes money sense.
Fanboy era was at its prime during the ps3-360 generation. It’s not as toxic as it once was, thankfully. People grow out of it eventually. I have my preference just as the next person. That being said it’s coming to be more about expanding availability instead of standing behind a brand. Much more Microsoft than Sony. But Sony will probably move up its time of PC release for increase revenue.
We will see, it’s just speculation.
CliffyB is like David Jaffe at this point, always quick with the opinions but haven’t made a successful game in over a decade at this point. Do any of us really care what they think about anything? I certainly don’t.
Shaz from GL writes: “In an interview, Cliff Bleszinski says that he’d be interested in helping develop a Gears of War reboot akin to God of War. Unnecessary? I think so.”
A reimagining that continues the lore, and story of established characters is absolutely a great way to continue a series that needs a refresh. I agree that any long standing franchise that has run it's course definitely needs a "God of War" style reboot, because GOW did it right. I might have my issues with the last two games but they did right by the series regardless.
There's no helping Gears of Woke. Microsoft killed this franchise when they forced the woke culture into the story.
I thought they were doing a soft reboot with gears4 but then it turned out to be the exact same as all the others.
A more horror oriented and tight corridor renewal would work for that franchise....also...why they got guns? They're alien like...they should have other types of weapons entirely.
Is one of those reasons because of sensational headlines that utilize screenshots of half-naked pixels to promote their unimaginative content?
1. they cry about everything
2. they file ridiculous FTC claims
3. they waste tax payers' money filing frivilous lawsuits
4. they utter death threats
bonus:
5. they take advantage of a charity to further their own selfish, petty means
Apparently this is the 90's, back when this train of thought was legimimate rather than simple paranioa.
Gaming isn't what this article implies, and it hasn't been for a long, long time.
This Article is full of hit and miss:
1: This has nothing to do with Gamer's taken seriosuly, this is just a movie studio trying to make a buck by making a movie on something popular. The same thing happens with novels, but unfortunetly it actually works for novels.
2: The scandals are not entirely the fault of gamers, as it was a programmer who put it on a locked content on a disk. Not to mention most "Scandals" usually occur when some group makes an exagerrated claim on something they know nothing about (i.e. Mass Effect Sex scandal)
3: I can agree with the booth babe thing/sexism 100%. I think that this actually has a point in dragging the industry down.
4: Not sure what the point bringing the devs into this. I am sure I could show a number of developer pictures and no one would even think to associate it with games let a lone a influencial developer.
It's sad that the article didn't touch on having more mature story lines such as Heavy Rain. These opinion articles seem to be stumbling to the gate lately.
What do you mean "taken seriously"? I play games for entertainment I don't expect to be judged as a person because I play games, listen to music or watch movies. Take me seriously for my accomplishments not how i choose to entertain myself.
