What Movies Inspired Gears Of War 2

Gears of War 2 producer Cliff Bleszinski has shared details on what movies provided inspiration for the blockbuster sequel, Gears of War 2:

"The Empire Strikes Back is the obvious one that everyone goes to, because it's darker"

"Dark Knight as well - doing what the first one did but also having a darker twist on it and going places the first one wouldn't have had the balls to go and also doing everything on a larger scale."

"I think Aliens is also a great one. Seeing dozens or hundreds of Locust pouring out of a hole, whereas in the first 'Alien,' it was just an alien, basically."

I wouldn't say Predator 2 or Robocop 2 or any of those. Although we do have our share of '80s Stallone and Schwarzenegger winks and homages and whatnot."

There's more from Cliff as always... at the source.
