Thought/Process: Gear Shift: An Interview With Cliff BleszinskiThere's more to Cliff Bleszinski than chainsaws and male bonding. Evan Narcisse speaks to the Gears of War visionary about -- among other things -- why games will trump TV and music.

I love this - when asked about the chainsaw bayonet he says "We didn't want to have someone shooting a target far away; we wanted it to be more intimate."
Funny, I have a different idea in my mind of what "getting intimate" means but now that I have read this, date night has a whole new meaning.

Excuse me? Did he just take credit for Gears of War inventing the the concept of cover systems in video games??!
Other than that, it was an interesting interview. He didn't seem like anywhere near as much of a tool as i expected him to be.

@The_Skipper: I think Cliff would like it just fine if you included Horde Mode in the line-up of date night activities.
@Je-Tze: I think he was noting that the importance of cover and how it's used has changed, post-Gears. Yes, there were cover systems before Gears, but the first game crystallized lots of those ideas and made them super-usable.
Thanks for reading, guys!
