Bleszinski Says Epic Thought Gears of War Was a 'Fluke'

Boss Key Productions co-founder Cliff Bleszinski has shed light on why he left Epic Games, discussing his frustration with the company, as many thought Gears of War was “kind of a fluke.”

“Epic at the time, and I say this very carefully because they’ve really kind of changed into their own entity….

But at the time there was this whole like ‘Gears was kind of a fluke,’ you know, and I could pitch any idea to the company and inevitably I’d have somebody in my office going ‘I don’t buy it.'”
