After translations of a Russian gaming magazine stated that Gears of War 3 would be "like Waterworld, only with no Kevin Costner", Cliff Bleszinski saw it fit to shoot that down on his twitter account:
"Gears 3 is nothing like Waterworld, my friends, you're doing it wrong. The Raven's Nest is only one level" (directed at Kotaku)
Personally I think I'm kind of happy about that. Even if you took Kevin Costner out of Waterworld it would be a horrible, horrible film.
