Cliffy B: Borderlands is the Diablo of this generation

Cliffy.B the design director of the Gears of War franchise is one of the most talkative developers out there. In the past few months, he had made a comment on the future of shooters by saying “the future of shooters is RPGs” and with games like Fallout 3 and the recently released Borderlands, it’s seem like a reasonable comment.

Today, the infamous designer has praised Gearbox latest game through his official twitter account by saying “Borderlands, I adore you. You’re Diablo for a generation raised on first person shooters. I want a Claptrap statue.” It’s not the first time that he gave praise to Borderlands, as he said earlier “I think Borderlands is not getting as much hype as it should, because it really looks like a more accessible, shootery version of Fallout.”
