The curse of video game adaptations has run strong for many years now. Whenever an iconic video game gets adapted into a movie or a show, it is likely to severely disappoint the true fans of the original work. However, some exceptions have proved their strength quite loudly in recent years. Pedro Pascal’s The Last of Us is a perfect example of such a work, making only necessary changes and staying true to the source material in the best of ways.

Gears of War is a franchise that isn’t afraid of experimenting with new mechanics. It’s also not afraid of letting you feel very, very afraid. Since the days of its original gameplay, the saga has come far in building some of the most scary and challenging foes in battle.
On that note, the original creator’s nephew himself couldn’t handle the jump scare caused by one of the earliest enemy types in the first Gears of War. To new players who haven’t experienced the game before, a similar reaction is to be expected.
Cliff Bleszinski Created Something That Even His Close Ones Are Afraid Of Gears of War still holds up as a game with some deadly enemies.

Gears of War E-Day is the next title in the popular franchise that has a rather rich lore. A part of that is the Carmine family, which is synonymous with bravery and service for the Cog. Unfortunately, throughout installments, their dedication has had a hefty price. In almost every Gears of War, at least one Carmine brother met its tragic end.
However, the upcoming Gears of War: E-Day is a prequel in the Gears games timeline and is a glimmer of hope for the Carmine family with a chance to set the Carmine brothers up for triumph. In addition to Clayton, the game can introduce another brother and give fans the Twin Grub killers squad.
Carmine Family Has Been a Staple in the Franchise Carmine family has given a lot to the war.
In every mainline Gears of War game except Gears of War 3 and Judgement, at least one Carmine brother meets a tragic demise.

Following the success of the first trailer for Gears of War: E-Day, fans of the saga remain excited about this game and can’t stop talking about it. In a recent Reddit post, a user suggested what would make a memorable scene to add to a possible movie based on these characters.
The user described an enemy that doesn’t have much visibility in the game but features several of the most terrifying moments in the franchise. Additionally, the discussion led to the mention of another outstanding villain who could reemerge in this potential adaptation.

Gears of War: E-Day is the much-awaited entry into the classic Gears of War franchise. It’s been four long and painful years since the Gears 5 Dlc was released and the franchise got a huge announcement.
The recent trailer release changed everything though, and long-time fans are coming out of the trenches to show their love for the franchise in creative ways. However, one particular custom Xbox job takes the cake, and people can’t get enough of it.

The Gears of War fanbase has been very excited and happy over the announcement of E-Day. However, amidst the anticipation, some fans are expressing some pretty wild and revisionist opinions about the series’ history.
A recent Reddit post discrediting Rod Fergusson for his contribution to the entire series is a prime example. It’s a head-scratcher for those who know the history of the series.
Rod Fergusson’s Role in Gears of War
Rod Fergusson is one of the few lead developers to have worked on all five Gears of War games.
Fergusson isn’t just some guy who came in later to mess things up, as the post has stated. He’s been with the franchise since day one. Back in 2005, when the original Gears of War was being developed, Fergusson was right there, helping shape the game into what it became.

The first trailer for Gears of War: E-Day completely surprised fans with something they didn’t expect at all. The game will be taking players back to the franchise’s origins just before the appearance of the Locust, the iconic enemies that are the hallmark of this saga.
In a recent interview, the game’s director said the studio is very confident in delivering a fantastic game. This could mean something huge for Xbox, similar to what God of War 2018 was for the PlayStation.

While fans were anticipating a teaser for Gears of War 6 at the Xbox Showcase 2024, The Coalition surprised everyone by revealing Gears of War: E-Day instead. At first glance, the game appears to embody the classic Gears of War elements, suggesting that The Coalition has decided to return to its roots.
Not only is Gears of War back, but it’s also going back as E-Day is a prequel to the first Gears of War game. While the fifth installment of the franchise failed to charm fans, E-Day has got everyone excited, as it could be the start of another trilogy.

Gears of War is one of the most popular franchises out there, and after a five-year wait, fans now know that another title is soon coming their way. Xbox announced Gears of War E-Day, a prequel at the Xbox Games Showcase 2024 that will take players back to Emergence Day.
While fans were hoping for Gears 6, they are happy that they will get to know the origin stories of series heroes Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago. The franchise creator, Cliff Bleszinski, is expecting to see something in the prequel, which would be epic, but the game will have to break the timeline.

With the recent reveal of a new Gears of War at the last Xbox Games Showcase, the original creator of this saga reveals that he is not very satisfied with the current state of the industry. Cliffy B, the nickname of the popular Cliff Bleszinski, declared in an interview last year that he is a fan of the PlayStation 2 era with games like God of War.
He talked about how these types of games influenced him to create one of Microsoft’s most popular franchises. This director eventually distanced himself from the franchise and officially retired from video games.

For a long time, Gears of War was responsible for some of Xbox’s greatest heavy-hitters, but the franchise seemed to have lost its way in the modern gaming landscape. However, with the reveal of E-Day, The Coalition seems to be taking the series back to its roots with a prequel that may reignite some life back into the devastating tale.

Cliff Bleszinski, better known as Cliffy B, is a relatively big name in the gaming world, especially when it comes to the Gears of War series. He’s known for being the lead designer on the original trilogy.

Cliff Bleszinski, the mastermind behind the iconic Gears of War series, has talked about how God of War could be a good parallel in how to revive the series, back in 2023. He has been very vocal about his aspirations for the franchise.
This ambition was talked about during an interview where Bleszinski discussed his upcoming cookbook, Scrapper, and reflected on his long career in game development.

The God of War series likely has another game in the works.

It is no secret that Gears of War E-Day‘s reveal surprised fans. While there were rumors regarding the game being included in the 2024 Xbox Showcase lineup by industry insiders like Paris Lilly, no one saw a prequel dating back to the Emergence being announced.
This move by The Coalition was something that fans weren’t expecting in the slightest. That is because, since Gears of War 4, the series has been focusing on a different story arc. So, there must have been a profound reason why the studio chose to forsake the Gears 4 trilogy midway.

Gears of War: E-Day is the upcoming prequel title set to chronicle the horrific events of Emergence Day. One of the most disastrous moments of humankind’s history, was when the Locust Horde erupted from beneath Sera and thrust humanity into a struggle for survival.
The prequel is set to give a new origin story to the iconic Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago, but who else will be in the game? The speculation is running rampant already and one of the possible characters to join Marcus and Dom is none other than Corporal Tai Kaliso from Gears of War 2.

Fans got excited after one of the highlights during the Xbox Games Showcase turned out to be Gears of War E-Day. It’s not exactly what they expected out of the series, but it will explore Emergence Day, the event that gave rise to the narrative as we know it.
The first three games featuring the beloved protagonist, Marcus Fenix, were developed by American video game designer Cliff Bleszinski. Needless to say, he was pivotal for the game’s development as the trilogy raked in over a billion dollars in revenue and sold 22 million copies globally.

The upcoming Xbox Games Showcase on June 9 is set to be a megaton as it’ll be the first to feature the full trinity of the brand’s own studios, Bethesda, and Activision Blizzard. Moreover, there will also be a 45-minute presentation right after the show, which many speculate is for Call of Duty Gulf War.
Several rumors have been swirling about the games that will show up in the main event, though, and it seems Gears of War fans are encouraged to tune in, as the long-awaited Gears of War 6 could make its debut here, marking five years since Gears 5 launched in 2019.

Gears of War is one of the most notable Xbox franchises in recent history and fans are excited for the next installment. The series has gone through quite some changes and it has deviated from its roots and the community has found a solution to make the sequel feel more familiar.
The gaming community misses the dark and gritty feel of the first few games in the franchise and hopes to see the same atmosphere return in the latest entry. Perhaps the key to the success of the video game series is pure nostalgia.
Gears of War 6 Should Take a Trip Down Memory Lane
Gears of War 6 is currently in active development over at The Coalition Studio.
Sequels can either elevate the franchise or take a wrong turn and lead it to an irredeemable ditch of disappointment. The Coalition Studio is doing its absolute best to bring an authentic gaming experience.

There are few directors or personalities inside the video game industry who can really make anything they want without asking questions. One of those names is Hideo Kojima, creator of Metal Gear Solid and Death Stranding. This Japanese creator made games reach a new level of originality.
Unfortunately, there are not all great ideas; there was a time when this director had some wacky ideas that fans wouldn’t like. This project was a zombie online game that would have required players to pay for multiple accounts in order to keep playing.
A Great Director Does Not Always Have Amazing Ideas Hideo Kojima had some ideas in the past that were no good at all.

Few directors and creatives survive after their first big success; people like Ken Levine, Glen Schofield, and Cliff Bleszinski were not so lucky after the success of their greatest IP. Once Gears of War was behind Cliffy B, the director tried several times to make a new great game.
Lawbreakers was one of these projects, but the title quickly went out of play, and the director distanced himself from gaming design. But fans seem to want to bring back this game, and this director is very happy and surprised about this community engagement.

Fallout is the latest video game franchise to receive a live-action adaptation, and early reactions have been mostly positive. Perhaps other studios and developers should take notes of how Amazon Prime was able to pull off a successful series and avoid the mistakes Paramount made with Halo.
Live-action adaptations can be a hit-and-miss, but Gears of War is the one game fans have been begging for and Microsoft better not drop the ball once again.
Amazon Prime’s Fallout Could Influence Gears of War Movie
All episodes of Fallout are now available on Amazon Prime Video.

A glimpse into the next Gears of War might just be a couple of months away. The Coalition, the developers of the game, are said to be working on one, and rumors suggest it will be the continuation of the last mainline game’s story. The first three Gears of War games focus on Marcus Fenix, while the following games pick up different protagonists.
One of the successful game franchises, it has earned over $1 billion for Microsoft. The last game in the series, Gears Tactics, was released in 2020. It was a turn-based game where the story is set up after Emergence Day, a planet-wide assault on Sera. Since then, the series has remained dormant.

In 2021, The Coalition seemingly parted ways from Gears 5 for an unrevealed project on Unreal Engine 5. The project might be a savior for Xbox, since there are rumors about a new console. This project appears to be the next Gears of War game, as some Xbox job listings by Microsoft suggest. The speculations arise from the latest conversation with insider Jeff Grubb on Kinda Funny Xcast.
The first three games in the series revolve around the protagonist, Marcus Fenix, while the next main title follows the story of his son, James Dominic Fenix, and then his friend, Kait Diaz. Cliff Bleszinski, who designed the first three installments, drew inspiration from games like Resident Evil 4, Kill Switch, and Bionic Commando.

Gears of War is one of the most popular franchises exclusive to Xbox. The franchise began in 2006 and has seen numerous installments since then. However, the latest mainline game in the series dates back to 2019.
Since then, various Xbox exclusives have disappeared from the relevance compass because of their boundless mediocrity. Xbox doesn’t seem to have an answer for exclusive titles released on its arch-rival, Sony’s console lineup. However, as per some industry insiders, this might change, and the Gears of War franchise might see another installment reasonably soon.

Late last year, Gaming Industry Journalist Jason Schreier kept assuring fans that the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (Kotor) Remake was happening despite rumors stating the project was dead. With no official confirmation, the leaks weren’t convincing fans at all but a new ray of hope has again emerged via the CEO of Saber Interactive, Matthew Karch.
In a recent interview, one of the first questions posed to Karch was the status of the Kotor Remake and Karch gave a crystal clear reply, confirming that the project is alive and kicking. The confirmation from Saber’s CEO himself should put a lot of Star Wars fans waiting for the remake to wait for it in peace.

Gears of War has been a strong asset and recognizable franchise of Xbox for many years and after a quick chat and interview with former game developer Cliff Bleszinski, he now reveals that he is very much open to the possibility of returning.
The franchise could strongly benefit from a former developer who left and experienced more from outside the studio that can help reshape and improve the beloved franchise.
Game developers who left their former workplaces to pursue other opportunities are not uncommon. Most of those who returned were embraced and welcomed with open arms and their newfound knowledge and experiences were crucial to the studio’s growth like Cory Barlog and Santa Monica Studio, who went on to direct the soft reboot of God of War.

Fortnite may have become a pop culture phenomenon, but it is not for CliffyB. When Xbox launched its second console, the Xbox 360, one game changed it all. Gears of War had made up its own sub-genre with a never-before-seen cover system and extreme violence. This title even had one of the most original weapons ever created: the Lancer, an assault rifle with a chainsaw.
This game was created by Cliff Bleszinski; this director made three of the entries in Gears of War, then parted ways with Microsoft. Bleszinski gave FandomWire an interview while he was promoting his new show, Wolves Den. He talked about the industry, including battle royales like Fortnite.

We recently got the opportunity to talk to Cliff Bleszinski ahead of his appearance in the upcoming Shark Tank-inspired Wolves Den, and it was quite an illuminating chat, if a little short!
From his thoughts on Phil Spencer’s Xbox Game Pass/Game aims, his hopes for the show, what he wants to see, and who he thinks is the Sharon Osborne of the judges, to his simple request for the ending of Gears of War franchise, he didn’t hold anything back!
Wolves Den is the Gaming Shark Tank
If you’re wondering what Wolves Den is, the best explanation would be a gaming-centric Shark Tank (Dragon’s Den for you European folk), where contestants submit their ideas for games, and then throughout the rounds develop and refine them with the help and guidance of industry specialists like Cliff, all hosted and shown on the Spatial.io platform.

The Gears of War franchise is one of the most successful in the history of Xbox. This game has sold more than 40 million units worldwide. The main entries in this universe are the best exclusives for Xbox consoles.

After languishing in development purgatory for years, the ‘Gears of War’ movie is finally getting its time in the limelight, thanks to Netflix. This film adaptation of the iconic video game series is stirring excitement among fans, especially with whispers about potential castings and direction. Cliff Bleszinski, the genius behind the game, voiced his endorsement for Zack Snyder to take the director’s seat in a chat with ComicBook.com. He’s confident that Snyder’s knack for molding existing IPs would work wonders for the adaptation.
However, Bleszinski’s praise for Snyder has its caveats. While he appreciated Snyder’s classics like the ‘Dawn of the Dead’ remake and ‘300’, he wasn’t particularly taken with ‘Army of the Dead,’ a recent Netflix endeavor by the director. Yet, Bleszinski’s belief in Snyder’s capability for Gears remains unshaken.

It was announced last year that Netflix had acquired the rights to the Gears of War video game franchise and would be partnering with The Coalition, the developer behind the series, to develop a live-action movie as well as an animated series. It remains to be seen who will direct the Gears of War movie, but franchise creator Cliff Bleszinski said that Zack Snyder would be a great fit for the job.
“To be frank, I think Zack Snyder is an amazing director when he is working with existing IP,” Cliff Bleszinski told ComicBook.com. “I think when he did, I think it was the Dawn of the Dead remake, some of his superhero movies, when he did 300. As an adaptation, 300 defined a whole genre of [filmmaking], the slow-mo and the fast pans.” That said, Bleszinski added that he thought Army of the Dead was “terrible” and said he actually turned it off halfway through.

We didn’t get much in the way of details regarding Netflix’s announcement earlier this week regarding that film adaptation of Gears of War, including just who would be playing series protagonist Marcus Fenix. Luckily, Dave Bautista has provided a bit of intrigue on Twitter, putting forward his name to star in the Gears film.
Bautista, who was part of the Gears 5 campaign a few years back, reposting a modified version of that trailer of him unpacking his armor, writing “I can’t make this any easier” with “#GearsofWar” and “#marcusfenix” in the Tweet.
Bautista’s tweet comes after Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinski earlier in the week put forward the Dune and Blade Runner 2049 star’s name as Marcus after the initial Netflix announcement.
As of right now, neither Netflix or current Gears developer The Coalition has responded to Bautista’s tweet, nor have they revealed...

It’s no secret that Dave Bautista has wanted to play Marcus Fenix in a Gears of War movie for some time… and now that they’re actually making one, the actor’s moment has finally arrived.
It was announced earlier this week that Netflix has acquired the rights to the Gears of War video game franchise and would be partnering with The Coalition, the developer behind the series, to develop a live-action movie as well as an animated series. Dave Bautista took to Twitter today to make sure those involved in the Gears of War movie still know he’s game to take part.

"You want the truth? I'll give you the truth." Crackle has released an official trailer for a documentary called Playing With Power: The Nintendo Story, which will debut streaming as a five-part series about the story behind video game giant Nintendo. The focus seems to be on the rise and prominence of Nintendo in America, not so much its origins in Japan, as told through interviews with many game industry veterans. We love Nintendo and good docs and can't help posting about this anyway. Via Nintendo Enthusiast, the film features interviews with "actor Wil Wheaton, actor Alison Haislip, Nintendo of America co-founder Ron Judy, Atari co-founder Nolan Bushnell, former Sega of America CEO Tom Kalinske, former Nintendo CEO Reggie Fils-Aimé, and Xbox head Phil Spencer. But there are even more knowledgeable industry figures in the documentary where that came from, such as Digital Eclipse Editorial Director Chris Kohler, Gears of War designer Cliff Bleszinski,...

In keeping with the Twitter truism that “there’s always a tweet” posted by Donald Trump before he took office that can be applied to his current administration, some Twitter users have been circulating an old Trump tweet where he talked about “riots and looting.”
“Our country is totally fractured and, with our weak leadership in Washington, you can expect Ferguson type riots and looting in other places,” Trump tweeted in November 2014, after demonstrations against the death of unarmed black teen Michael Brown at the hands of white officer Darren Wilson were held in major cities around the country.

On Memorial Day this year, an unarmed black man named George Floyd died as a white officer kneeled on his neck in Minneapolis.

When Disney acquired Fox, it didn’t just shake up the film and TV industry, but it also deprived gamers of two new Alien titles that could very well have reignited the franchise. These projects had a lot of potential, but were effectively canceled when the House of Mouse took control.
Two developers have unveiled concepts for their Alien games that never got to see the light of day this week. Both of the canceled projects’ premises sound very intriguing, too, and could have been some impressive additions to the vast library of Alien titles released for gamers.
Not too long ago, it was revealed that prominent developer Cliff Bleszinski and his studio were in talks to create a first-person shooter with the main character being Newt from Aliens. This version of her would’ve been all grown up and living on Earth, completely ignoring the events of Alien 3.

Fox had at least two Aliens games in development before the company was sold to Disney.
Games based on the popular James Cameron film Aliens are a bit like buses: you wait for ages for them and they don't turn up, and you later learn there were meant to be two of them on the way. Okay, maybe that metaphor doesn't work, but please stick with us here because this news is quite interesting: it sounds a lot like Fox was developing at least two Aliens games before the company was bought out by Disney.
We've learned this today because of a surprising Twitter exchange between developers from different companies. The revelations began when Cliff Bleszinski posted a Tweet to reveal that Boss Key Productions, before they went bust, had been talking to Fox about developing an Aliens game.

Following the closure of video game developer Boss Key Productions in 2018, founder and studio head Cliff Bleszinski decided enough was enough.
The poor commercial performance of both LawBreakers and Radical Heights had all but convinced the former Epic Games employee and Gears of War creator to apply his talents elsewhere, most notably in theatre production. While Bleszinski may have closed that chapter on his professional life, he recently took the time to discuss one potentially hugely successful project that sadly never came to be.
Recalling the events leading up to its eventual failure to materialize, Bleszinski reveals that Boss Key had at one point in time been in talks with Fox to create an Aliens video game. In light of Creative Assembly’s success with Alien: Isolation, the movie heavyweight was eager to keep the streak going with further adventures, to which Bleszinski responded in kind with his own pitch.

When is a dance a dance and not just a move, and can you copyright it?
That seems to be the lynchpin question in a series of lawsuits filed this month against “Fortnite” creator Epic Games by a rapper, an actor, and an Instagram star.
Brooklyn rapper 2 Milly, former “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” star Alfonso Ribeiro, and Instagram’s “Backpack Kid” all filed suits this month against Epic Games, saying the developer copied each of their trademark dance moves, put them in “Fortnite” as an animation, and sold them to millions of players, without permission.
But can you copyright a dance? Who is Backpack Kid? What is “Fortnite?” There’s a lot to unpack here.

Neill Blomkamp, the creative mind behind District 9, Elysium and Chappie, has announced that RoboCop Returns will be rated R. And that it will contain plenty of exploding squibs… kind of.
Over on Twitter (h/t Bloody Disgusting), former Gears of War dev Cliff Bleszinski took a moment to celebrate Wednesday’s big reveal, before asking Neill Blomkamp if his upcoming sequel will be rated R with plenty of satire. His answer? Yes to both.
So, yes, there will be blood, as Neill Blomkamp and his team prepare to craft a direct sequel to the classic RoboCop movie of 1987. Paul Verhoeven was the brains behind that seminal film, one that’s often credited as one of Hollywood’s first major cyberpunk movies alongside Blade Runner, so it’s fair to say that Blomkamp has some pretty big boots to fill if he’s to honor the legacy of Omnicorp’s greatest ever invention.

Servers for “LawBreakers” will go dark in September, Cliff Bleszinski’s Boss Key Productions announced in a statement on Monday. The game is free to play in the interim.
“In light of the unfortunate news regarding Boss Key Productions shutting down, we regret to announce that we will be sunsetting our support of LawBreakers on September 14, 2018, as we are not able to operate the game,” Boss Key said. “Our servers will remain open until then and the game will be made free-to-play on Steam for all players effective immediately. Please note that any and all new in-game purchases will also be disabled and we will not be able to accept any refund requests.”
The statement goes on to thank players for their support and understanding. “Thank you for staying with us throughout this journey,” it says.

Boss Key’s first game, an online shooter called “Lawbreakers,” came out in August 2017 to generally favorable reviews but failed to grow a strong player base. Two months after launch, it reportedly had a concurrent player count of only 10. Publisher Nexon blamed its poor performance on the explosive popularity of battle royale title “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds,” claiming it made the market environment very tough for first-person shooters in general.
Boss Key announced in April it was halting development on “Lawbreakers” and refocusing its efforts on its own battle royale game, “Radical Heights.” But, Bleszinski said today it wasn’t enough to save the studio.

Earlier this week, rapper and actor Ice-t teased on Twitter that “Gears of War” news was incoming. Now, we know what it is — he’s reprising his role as Aaron Griffin in “Gears of War 4,” developer the Coalition revealed Thursday.
Starting April 20, players can earn the character in-game by completing a new timed achievement called the “Aaron Griffin Challenge.” They’ll have to earn 750 kills any way they see fit in either Public Versus mode (including Co-Op vs. Bots) or in public and private Horde matches. The Coalition said it’s a cumulative total, not per-mode type.
Players can track their progress in real-time via the Challenge tab under “Gears of War 4’s” achievements or via the Get Griffin challenge page. Once they get the required number of kills, they can head here and sign in with their Gamertag to unlock Griffin and instantly add him to their accounts.
