"You'll see a little bit more RPG elements in the next Gears game that are very light," he told Gamasutra.

Bleszinski also reiterated his belief that "the future of shooters are RPGs".

"The shooters that I've liked the most lately are ones like BioShock, which had some light RPG elements, as well as Borderlands, which I continue to gush about," he continued.

Good news IMO. I like a little bit of character progression. Should be interesting to see how it plays into Campaign and possible Horde and Multiplayer.

Interesting.

My thoughts?

Customisable weapons and armor... Maybe being able to create your own online characters? A COG and a Locust?

Maybe you get a choice...and you get to choose if you want to cuddle with Dom or Cole.

This could make me love this game a whole lot more. For some reason I absolutely love games where you can "upgrade" characters or weapons. I don't care how "light" it as, just as long as there is some. I was getting tired of Gears, thought the second one felt stale by the end. But now I'm excited for it again...Yay!
