PC Demise? Mark Rein Calls Cliffy B An Idiot

Well, when we sat down with Mark Rein and the rest of the newly formed PC Alliance at this years GDC, we wondered if his loyalty to the PC would extend beyond the confines of the Moscone Center. However, his recent comments in response to a particular bayonet wielding designer may help to answer that question.

“Cliff’s an idiot! I’m kidding, obviously. Hey, Cliff is Cliff, and he is making a console game, and that is what he’s focused on, so that is what his thinking is all about. But as a company, we make PC games. We love the PC, it’s our heritage, we want to see it be strong, and we want to sell games like Unreal Tournament III and Gears of War on PC, and have them sell as well as they do on console.”

Interesting at the very least, however Mark is a very outspoken individual, so this really shouldn’t come as a surprise.

    man i’d really like to hear the tone of his voice when he said this. because it could either be “friendly joking” or something else dressed up as “friendly joking.” eh, probably the former.

    cliffy is right how many people play pc games not many because you always got to upgrade and i for one is not willing to pay for new chips when i can buy a gaming system. There always a chance to use the pc as away for developing games that a good way.
