Say what you think, why don't you. Gears of War 2 dev lead Cliff Bleszinski, speaking at a recent London press event for the game, has said he's envious of PS3's Blu-ray drive, but not exactly enamoured with DualShock.

"I hate the f**king controller," he told VG247. "I'm sorry, I can't stand the PS3 controller. I love the Blu-ray player."

Bleszinski added that PS3 did have some good games, though, whether he likes the controller or not.

"I think there are some great games for PS3," he said. "I think Metal Gear's great. Heavenly Sword was great. But at the same time, right now, I'm always working on Xbox with Gears."

Is there anything he'd like from PS3, though? Os is he comfortable with 360?

"I'm pretty comfortable with 360," he said. "I like its controller."

Gears of War 2 ships for 360 on November 7. For the rest of our coverage from the event, including play impressions and new shots, click this.
