Epic's Cliff Bleszinski has revealed that the company is in talks with Nintendo about developing games for the Wii..
The lead designer of the upcoming Gears of War, Cliff Bleszinski has been interviewed about the upcoming title, and mentioned the Wii. We're currently talking with Nintendo," he said. "It's not really my department to pontificate on other people's system and comments that the wonderful Mark Rein will make occasionally to upset the fans. Again, I reserve judgment of the Wii until I get hands on with it. I was very judgmental about the DS until I actually got to play hands-on with it and I love Trauma Center and stuff like that."
Bleszinski's colleague Rein of course previously critised the system, saying that "you're going to see more gimmicky, crappy, cheap, I-wish-I-hadn't-bought-it gimmick games based around that controller than you can ever possibly imagine."
However, Bleszinski applauded Nintendo for "zigging while everyone else is zagging... I give them props for doing something different. My advice to anybody developing a first person shooter for the Revolution is: even though you have a new way to control and make a new FPS you still need a cool, compelling FPS underneath that. [Control] is only one of five things that you need. Give us a Half-Life 2 with those controls and I'll be first in line to buy it."
