The hallmarks of the 'Brothers in Arms' series are about authenticity, squad combat, brotherhood between soldiers.

There are several cool cross-overs between 'Blue Shift,' 'Opposing Force' and 'Half-Life.' The plots are all designed to work nicely with themselves and the observant player will catch many cross-references.

I remember when I discovered The Beatles with music and The Beatles peaked before I was born and when I discovered them I felt really special.

Most single player games put a lone character against an army that is just standing around waiting for the player to show up and defeat them.

I have a lot of respect for those in medicine that are trying to extend our lives or help us when we're sick.

Usually when we finish a game and we're at the end, we're sick of it. We want to put it in the box and be done with it. But with 'Borderlands,' it's actually become a productivity sink at Gearbox, because we're just having fun.

I don't think there's any artist of any value who doesn't doubt what they're doing.

To my mind the old masters are not art; their value is in their scarcity.

The value of art is in the observer.

In mathematics the art of proposing a question must be held of higher value than solving it.

Anyone who works on a quilt, who devotes her time, energy, creativity, and passion to that art, learns to value the work of her hands. And as any quilter will tell you, a quilter's quilting friends are some of the dearest, most generous, and most supportive people she knows.

Emotion resulting from a work of art is only of value when it is not obtained by sentimental blackmail.
