" It' s five times bigger this time."

...Says Cliff Blezinski.

Epic' s big sequel Gears of War 2, which almost cracked a grin from Tomonobu Itagaki during the Xbox spring showcase last week, is " fives times bigger" on the action front.

That' s according to exceedingly efficient interviewee Cliff Bleszinski, who says that the second game shows just how much " smoother" the Unreal Engine has gotten.

" [Unreal Engine has] never stopped evolving," Cliff told CVG in San Francisco last week. " The character lighting is vastly improved, the environment is chippable and the tress get knocked down as physics objects.

" There' s just so much shit going on, it' s five times bigger this time. I think it shows the engines got smoother."

Admittedly, what we saw of Gears 2 was very impressive indeed (read the eyes-on report if you haven' t already) - and it' s definitely a shed-load louder than the first, with massive ' derricks' rolling through lush meadow environments, and the gigantic Brumack exploding from the ground to trample on Marcus and Co.

But just how has Epic managed to stick so much more action on screen? It' s not as if Gears 1 was dragged out...

" It' s sheer hard work, a lot of practice, having artists that are smart with where they spend their polygons and just getting the most out of the 360," says Cliffy B.

" Because it' s not as if the 360' s getting any better, it is what it is; a fixed platform. The mountain needs to go to Mohammad in this instance."

Look for the full Cliffy B transcript on CVG shortly.

The mountain needs to go to Mohammad in this instance.

He knows what cliff meant .. The fanboy in him wants to make it sound as if it is a diss on the 360 ..

I think we get the idea that Gears 2 will be " bigger and better" Cliff.

Eventually his interviews will reduce to this:

" So Cliffy hows Gears 2 coming along"
" Well, its bigger and better"
" ...............Great!"

Thanks for the trust. No i really did NOT know what he meant by this and i just want to know what he means. Did i mention the game? Nope. Is it forbidden for me to browse 360 games threads now? This whole fanboy thing is getting annoying.
