Yeah, so? Just because the CEO of the devs don't like the controller doesn't mean all other developers agree with him. Besides, putting personal tastes over a company's interests is somewhat dumb.

Buahahahahahahahaaaaa I find it amusing that you actually believe that is the main reason.

Given your thoughts on this matter, may I just take a moment to taunt you by saying this?

"Even devs think the PS3 controller is so bad they won't make games for it!!!" ^.^

"with great power, comes great responsibility."

Really? Calling Cliffy B, one of the greatest game designers around, a fanboy just because he doesn't like the PS3 controller? Thats pretty rediculous not to mention the fact he never said thats the reason why Gears will never come to the PS3. Its just one of the MANY reasons why. Epic are far from fanboys they've released Unreal Tournament as well as the upcoming Bulletstorm on PS3. It just seems Epic and MS have a great partnership together which has landed the 360 some exclusives from them such as Gears of War and Shadow Complex.

And nice jab they take at the franchise and Cliff wih the homoerotic statement.

Really? Calling Cliffy B one of the greatest game designers around?

Really. And its not even debatable. You can personally say that you don't enjoy his games and thats fine but in terms of impact on the industry, sales, and popularity Cliffy B is easily one of the top Game designers in the world. By a large margin.

I really think the true reason it isnt on the PS3 is because MS paid for it to be exclusive. Cliffy B is just sending us on a wild goose chase to make sony change their controller setup. We are on to you Cliffy B.

nothing better than getting people to buy the PS3 version of your Bulletstorm. Nothing says "we did a good job on PS3's version" better than the comment above.

why not insult their mothers as well? talk about shooting themselves in the ***

Luckily for Cliffy I for one don't use devs statements (however insulting they may be) as a reason to not buy a game that is looking to be a good game. I hope others don't think like you.

But if they insult my dog...then...

I just... gotta ask... Do you find that statement insulting? Because it kind of sounds that way...

I have stopped caring about such things, it just doesn't result in any type of reaction within me. He doesn't like the controller, whatever, I think its the best controller ever though! 2 years ago I would through a hissy fit over this statement, now...bleh.

Maturation FTW.

I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

The reason gears 3 isnt coming is because microsoft gave a check to Epic with 9 figures on it. Besides cliff praised many PS3 games also such as heavy rain.
