Randy Pitchford, the outspoken boss of developer Gearbox, has something to say about Halo developer Bungie. Not just Bungie, he also has something to say about Modern Warfare developer Infinity War.
âI keep waiting to hear what Bungie is going to do thatâs not Halo,â Pitchford told game site VideoGamer.com. âThose guys are amazing, right? They walk on water! And the same with Infinity Ward. Itâs like, dude Iâm totally psyched to get my Call of Duty fix every year, but you guys are amazing! What else have you got? Can you give me something I havenât seen before?â
Maybe Bungie want to make other games and maybe theyâre making them right now, but canât say anything about them because the developer has its hands with with Halo 3: ODST? Maybe Infinity Ward is following up a smash hit with a back-to-back sequel? Patience, dear Randy, patience!
To Gearboxâs credit, the studio does churn out a wide variety to titles in different genres for various platforms. Not every developer has that kind of freedom or is even willing to take those sorts of risks.
