<p>After being nominated as some of the people in videogaming that need to &#8220;<a href="http://www.crispygamer.com/features/2008-07-10/the-10-people-we-hope-will-shut-the-f-up-at-this-years-e3.aspx" target="_blank">shut the fuck up</a>&#8220;, Cliff Bleszinski and Mark Rein take it to the ring to decide which of the two of them wins the right to shut up more.  Using the photo upload tools in EA&#8217;s new game Facebreaker, I was able to poorly reconstruct these two mammoths of mutilating machismo and let them do their thing. Video follows. <span id="more-6404"></span></p>

<p>Mark came out swinging and really had Cliffy on the ropes, but the Blaznats is no bitch and came back with a vengeance.  Too bad there&#8217;s a time limit &#8212; we&#8217;ll have to wait until the game releases in September to see what would happen if they weren&#8217;t confined to mere 90-second slap fights.</p>
<p>P.S. Does anyone else get the overwhelming urge to barf all over the place whenever they are subjected to EA Trax, or is that just me?<br />

<p>Cliff Bleszinski, lead game designer of Gears of War 2, cites Metal Gear Solid as the kind of game Epic doesn&#8217;t want to make.  What were his exact words?  Read on to find out. <span id="more-5121"></span></p>
<p>In a recent interview with IGN, CliffyB was quoted in saying the following:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Metal Gear Solid is our example of the game we&#8217;re <em>not</em> doing. Passive entertainment is on its way out.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The story itself is just IGN&#8217;s preview of Gears multiplayer, which is interesting, but CliffyB&#8217;s quote kinda came out of nowhere.  Am I sensationalizing this, or did CliffyB just totally dis Metal Gear Solid?<br />
