Gamepro editor Vicious Sid sat down with Epic's Mark Rein. In the interview Mark Rein talked Gears of War DLC and Unreal Tournament III. He also talks about how important Unreal Championship 2 was to Epic Games.
Unreal Championship 2 for Xbox was a bit of departure for Epic. Was that a successful experience?
That game taught us how to make a console game. It was a hugely successful experience. So without Unreal Championship 2 there would be no Gears of War. It's unfortunate that [the game] came at the end of the life of the original Xbox. If we had done that game three years earlier, maybe we could have owned a big piece of the Xbox. It's just that by the time that game came out, people weren't really buying Xbox games anymore. It was a good game, and we learned a lot from it.
Here Mark talks about Downloadable content for Gears of War:
Can Gears of War fans look forward to more downloadable content?
Absolutely, that's what the Gears team has been working on. So, there's more cool stuff, but we're not ready to spill the beans just yet.
