When I first started playing Epic's games, they were about pushing the envelope of PC gaming, much as Crytek did when they started their games. Anymore now, it seems Epic just wants to make console games for consoles that are beginning to fall behind in graphics quality, and doing nothing for the PC crowd. It is like Cliff and the others are in their safe envelope and they don't feel like challenging themselves anymore. They just want to make one more Gears of War game, and then any third party stuff that comes along.
This statement by Cliff only supports this, and frankly, it just causes me to think, 'Why bother with anything Epic anymore?'
Even with Id forgetting a few points to the PC version of RAGE, at least that company is still pushing the boundaries and challenging themselves. Yes, I went there, and we should, too. I've seen playthroughs of Rage, and it looks like a solid and fun game. I've seen playthroughs of the latest Epic games, and they are mediocre at best. Which can still sell games, but it doesn't improve your brand name and help draw in new customers. That is bad for business.
