06 will always be one of the favorite moments of my life,
that year the world of gaming gave me the best absolute present of all, Gears
was borne, and in a rainbow of gore and violence a beautiful play was seen, we
fought in a dying world that clung to his humanity by the treads of a few men’s
and woman’s that swore to fight their own nightmares every day while trying to
keep very real monster at bay
So i thank you Cliffy B, thank u for all the nights without
sleep, for the interminable hours you put into your game, for the people you
had to swallow to make gears happen, for the disappointments and capitulations, but mostly for wanting to
share your dream with us and allowing it to make it our own.
i just finished seeing the VGA trailer of Judgment and as i
watched those 20 something seconds over and over again, i see, in every frame
that gears is no more. That, is not the
story or the characters i love, they look plain, like someone forgot to render
them okay, lost is the sorrow so deep in their soul you can’t help but seeing
it shining thru their eyes every time they see
the holocaust that their lives had become, lost, is their deep pain they
feel seeing their world brought to their knees by an enemy they don’t understand
or know how to fight, lost is they destroyed beauty of a place it could only
exist in the most grandiose dream, for it has never existed a most beautiful
place than Sera.
Is a sad sad day, and i hope that some way and somehow you’d
be able to make it happen again, i understand that sometimes one has to stand
for what ones believe and in art as in war some fights are better won by losing.
So, even if it Gears never happens again the way you imagined,
or at least we the fans never get to see it, please remember that all around
the world you touched the hearts of millions of people, and that we go with
you, wherever you go,
Thank you Brother.. it has been a hell of a ride.
