Cliffy.B: “No plans for any Gears on PS3 any time soon”
Cliffy.B, the design director of the Gears of War franchise has killed all the rumors that have been popping on the internet about the possibility of a Gears of War game on Sony’s console, the PS3.
Speaking on Kotaku radio, when someone had mentioned that Microsoft doesn’t hold the exclusivity of the franchise and asked him about the possibility of the next installment in the series to appear on the PS3 as a multiplatform title, the creative force behind the Gears of War franchise answered:
“Honestly there’s really no plans for any Gears on PS3 any time soon, which I can confirm”
After that, Kotaku asked him a question about two of the most mentioned rumors in the industry: What will happen first, GOW on PS3 or MSG4 on Xbox 360:
“Hmm…..I would wager that…I know Microsoft is a huge fan of Kojima……I actually have no knowledge on any of this, but my guts as a gamers told me that you would see a Metal Gear Solid game on Xbox 360 before you see a Gears of War game on the PS3″
I don’t know if he actually knows about Metal Gear Solid: Rising or not. Because it’s a Metal Gear Solid game and it’s multiplatform. Maybe he means MGS4? Anyway, you have heard him, no Gears on PS3 anytime soon.

Ps3 owners don’t give a fuck about GEOW.

@ aRabicturd:
Don’t be such a fanboi. PS3 owners do give a fuck about Gears. At the same time Xbox 360 owners do give a fuck about MGS. Both franchises are popular and everybody needs to play them.

How about bringing Gears of War 2 to the PC already? People who played the first GoW would like to continue with the story and enjoy the multiplayer like everyone else already. They really had nothing to gain withholding that game from porting to the PC.

Maybe they’ll make a new IP game for PS3.

It’s not a metal gear solid game, the title
is Metal Gear: Rising, it’s much less cool without the “solid”

Personally, I would rather him work on a new IP for the PS3 than do a piss poor port of GOW to the PS3….if he has any plans on making a PS3 game, it would be best to do it from the ground up so he can take advantage of the console instead of hindering it.

@ Brian
No, it’s a Metal Gear Solid game. Watch the E3 announcement to see for yourself:

Please someone explain to me why metal gear solid rising is not a metal gear game. Is it because it does not feature snake? If so then by definition metal gear solid 2 isn’t a metal gear game either. It’s always good to see a series try something different. Wish they did the same with halo. I mean enough is enough.

@Randy
People say it`s not a real metal gear solid because Kojima is not directing it. So no Kojima = no real metal gear solid.

You guys ate bumb rising has nothing to do with the mgs story

Just so you know, he doesn’t go by “Cliffy B” anymore. It’s just Cliff Bleszinski.

Clearly some ppl never played Gears of War but I have and I can tell you it’s one of the best game I’ve ever played. Just to remind some of you, the famous cover system has been made popular by this franchise. They also solve the problem of health regain (no med pack) in shooter which at that time was a revolution. Gears of War has already marked this generation.

“actually have no knowledge on any of this, but my guts as a gamers told me that you would see a Metal Gear Solid game on Xbox 360 before you see a Gears of War game on the PS3″
obviously he did not watch E3 this year.
and guys you seriously believe him?
sony said theres no new PSP coming out, just before E3.
how did that turn out?
sony insisted that BC with ps2 games was a necessity and would always be available in all PS3s.
how did that turn out?
sony said the PSN will always be free to access.
how did that turn out?
he also said no new gears game till the next generation of consoles, lets see how that pans out.
just because someone says somethings false does not make it so, and just because someone says something is true it does not make it so either.
i say the sky is orange.
does it make that true?
people are so naive these days, they will believe anything.

“People say it`s not a real metal gear solid because Kojima is not directing it. So no Kojima = no real metal gear solid.”
I assume that God of War 3 is also not a real God of War because David Jaffe is not directing it then? And Bioshock 2 is not a real Bioshock game because Ken Levine is not directing it?

Maybe you guys should read a little deeper into his comments…….no Gears Of War on PS3 ANY TIME SOON. Why did he not say “No Gears Of War on PS3 AT ALL.”??? If Epic had no desire to make a Gears game for the PS3 he would have come right out and said it, like Insomniac did when asked about Ratchet & Clank going multiplatform.
Obviously Microsoft’s relationship with Epic isn’t as strong as some fanboys would like to believe. He might as well have said “There’s always hope for Gears Of War on PS3.”………this is hardly a confirmation of his undying love for the 360.

personally i think games such as mgs and gears of war should be enloyed by every gamer no matter what console they are on!
the only people losing out to these exclusive titles are us the gamers with one or the other console!!

Look, don’t worry if Gears of War doesn’t come to PS3. We already have the Uncharted series which is one of the finest game Iv’e played. We also have the upcoming game, Quantum Theory (or Quantum for US Release) from Tecmo (Team Ninja is not involved with this, sorry). That game already is the PS3′s Gears of War. It plays almost the same way as Gears (No chainsaw, though). From watching the gameplay video, that game looks very promising and that game will work as a substitute for Gears.

This Guy (Cliff??..eheheh) sucks…He loves tu suck the Microsoft’s ball…everytime…

I don’t care about GEOW and neither do my friends. Metal Gear Solid: Rising is not a Metal Gear Solid game, Its a Metal Gear game.
Solid Snake will not be in it thus, the name Metal Gear SOLID is irrelevant.
GEOW fails to me and I’d much rather stick with Uncharted. Nuff said.
Also, No I did not play MGS2, because snake wasn’t in it. Directors have nothing to do about it. Metal Gear SOLID is Metal Gear SOLID because of Solid Snake. Thus if he is not in it, it is not Metal Gear SOLID! Of course that doesn’t mean MGS:Rising will be a bad game. Because God of War is way better than the first time and it’s original director is gone. Nuff said.
