Sadly, in learning today how to spell Cliff's last name, we had to forget the spelling of another game designer's surname. We mention this only so you know who to blame when we start talking about BioShock designer KennyL.

Mr. Bleszdjkfhyjhewsdhnski seems like hed actually be a cool guy to chill and hang out with, why all the hate? Cause he doesn't look like Gabe Newell, John Carmack or Jeff Gertsmann? Get over it.

I feel sorry for anyone that would want to have a conversation with this guy. How interesting and enlightening it would be...like...wow...what if you had a shotgun that shot rockets? I think I can go back to high school and get the same crap.
Again, I'd have a conversation with Cliffy's TEAM. His concept artists, 3d artists, programmers...etc. They're interesting. They're talented...they interpreted this 13 year old's wet dream, they have a history outside their ego.

Maybe I'll finally find him less irritating now.
Probably not, though.

At least he isnt "price" who changed his name to a symbol
Are you guys upset at him because he has your dream job and probably looks better then you?

But really what Prince did is ingenious. I bet he sat back and laughed while everyone tried to figure out how to say his symbol name.

No...and no. I'd much much much rather be "price" than cliffy. Prince gets laid regularly and actually has talent and rocks hard...Cliffy works out cause he doesn't get laid and he acts like a tool to compensate for his lack of talent.
His team is extremely talented though. They deserve the credit that Cliffy B gets. Epic's games haven't been well designed since this tool showed up, but they're as technologically awesome as ever. Thank the programmers and artists for that.

I always thought Prince just lost a bet. But someone else owning your stage name is pretty good too.

So his name is now the guy that used to be called Cliffy B?
Posted: May 21st 2008 4:06PM (Unverified) said
To be honest I always thought that nickname was given to him by the media and other people that couldn't spell his name right.

“You can expect Gears of war 2 this year claims Cliff Belansky um Belinsky Blesenzinisspik,Cliff mxyzpltlk”

As a guy who think that making Gears of War more girlfriend-friendly is to add a bunch of co-op stuff and simply not make all the female characters have huge jugs, he still has a lot more growing up to do.
I guess a start is a start, though.

So, for Gears 1 we had CliffyB, and for Gears 2 we have Cliff Bleszinski...... I'm calling it now, by the time Gears 3 comes out we'll be referring to him as Clifford Upperbottom Bleszinski of the East Hampton Bleszinskis.

This means that his head is getting too big.
This is the same crap Diddy, I mean Puffy, I mean Puff Daddy, I mean P. Diddy pulled when he hit the big time... Before it didn't matter what you called him, but now since Gears 1 did so well, we need to be all proper with him... Whatever. Maybe you should stop dyign your hair platinum blonde, take the earring out, and not make a game which only young males can enjoy before you're "grow up". It doesn't matter what we call you, if you act childish, you will be referred to as one... So your name is still Cliffy B.

"if you act childish, you will be referred to as one."
There's a quote for the ages. That's right folks - you will be referred to as a childish.
I'm still trying to figure out how a man wanting to be called by his real name is childish, though.

Sheesh, the guy enjoys what he does and has a funny nickname, and everyone hates him?
Half of you guys are just a bunch of schmucks who will never amount to anything more than your lvl 70 WoW character, so why don't you just STFU and let the man have some fun?

Oh, I don't hate Clifford Blezenski, I just hate how he believes that he will be grown up by being referred to as his actual name, rather than the cooler, CliffyB.
Also, Marty, I'm not a PC fanboy. I actually love Gears of War, and can't wait for the sequel. I just don't like people who make big deals out of what name they are called, as if we would call someone a child or an adult based on what their name is. As long as his name isn't "boob" or something like that, I'll still think of him exactly the same. All this has done is make me think that he needs to get over himself.

His douchebag nickname is just a symptom of the larger problem; he's the kind of guy who puts his own used underwear over his head so he can abuse himself while experiencing a euphoria from his own scent, a mixture of sweat, Red Bull and Axe body spray.

I foresee this event happening in a few months:
Reporter:CliffyB good to have you on the show
CliffyB: You know you've been calling me that for the past 5 years..
Reporter: Actually 2 years
CliffyB: Well let me tell you a little secret, were sitting here right now and if you guys want to take a station break you can, but if you call me CliffyB to my face one more time we better take a station break
Reporter: Well its a 5 minute segment we've got a long way to go.
CliffyB: Well I bet you won't call me that again
Reporter: I bet I do
Reporter: ClffyB....
CliffyB:*flips table over and beats up reporter*
the end

First I'd like to say..WHO THE FUCK CARES?!?
Secondly I'd like to say..Someone should tell this guy this is not Japan. This is the USA. And in the USA we don't treat videogame makers like their important. In America we want videogame makers to work 100 hour weeks, GET THE FREAKIN GAME OUT ON TIME, make it at least mildly enjoyable and shut the fuck up, no one care what you think or feel. SO D-BAG CLIFFY, get back to work and make another mediocre game like your last one.
