He's ten thousand times worse than Peter Molyneux in this respect, saying some sequences in Aliens: Colonial Marines will be like "Uncharted" in space, etc.

And in the end that umbilical bridge sequence was completely NON-INTERACTIVE (not even like in Halo 4 in the first level where you had to climb yourself!!!) despite the fact there was a button prompt in the earlier, 2012 demo version of it!!!

Anyway, here's his speech at DICE where he emphasized how important quality is in games:

I don't think Molyneux ever lied about anything. Dude just hypes his games too much and lets his excitement get the better of him.

He's gotten better about it, too.

As for Pitchford... meh. No point in going on and on about it, especially when we have very little information about what actually happened. Colonial Marines has already damaged Gearbox's reputation. Leave it be.

You seem incredibly angry at Randy Pitchford, that other dude at Gearbox who lied, and Gearbox themselves.

I'm a bit lost here, guess I should catch up to this Gearbox lying situation... haven't been paying much attention to it, as I didn't care about the game right from the start.

I have always held the opinion that Pitchford is sort of a jerk. And that Gearbox is not very good. The game of theirs I liked the best was Opposing Force and even that I felt was worse than the original.

How is this any different than Nintendo saying the Wii U is 19 times more powerful than PS3, or anything that comes out of Sony's mouth? Lying is nothing new in this business. In fact it's a regular occurrence, not that I'm defending Pitchford here.

Well that's Duke Nukem Forever and Aliens: Colonial Marines now. Maybe it's not the best idea to just leave this be...

The sound effect the alien makes when it dies is the real movie sound effect when aliens die  that sound effect is completely missing from aliens colonial marines and it makes it not feel like aliens.

at least Gearbox knew the game was bad and started Damage Controlling a Week before launch by trying to pin the blame on another developer.

After experiencing 2 pretty big game glitches in BL2 with The Eroica, I think I'm done with GBX. Trading in BL2 for something that's enjoyable to play.

2 missions in a row that we've tried to do/complete. the first was simple enough, go fetch 4 blah blah, then return to either claptrap or some other dude-Well we go back and both clap trap and other dude are not there and neither one is able to be found. We actually tried exiting the game and starting it again and still cant find them :| The 2nd glitch is go up to a gate, honk your horn and proceed. Well we honked that muther fvcking horn a hundred times, tried different vehicles and the gate wont open, we finally gave up. Not impressed.

Agreed and confirmed.... I was so hyped to play through this game in some co op and we simply cant.... as in it wont allow us to continue as heil said. Likewise the two weighty updates to mp aspects were head scratching.... and kind of annoying. Im gonna play it in sp this weekend if i can to see if its connection issues causing glitching or whether the game just sucks. Big let down though at this point as i waited all year to play it.
