Cliff Bleszinski's Boss Key Productions Unveils LawBreakers Game Trailer
MojoKid writes: Boss Key Productions has posted its first trailer of LawBreakers (formerly Project Bluestreak), a futuristic game title that's set to release on multiple platforms in 2016. The trailer shows off some of the characters and classes that you'll have access to on both sides of the law — yes, you'll have to decide whether you're fighting for the law or the lawbreakers. The game's setting is Earth, though not as you know it now. This is a future version of Earth where gravity is busted. The government, in its infinite wisdom, screwed up some testing on the moon and managed to split its surface, an event that came to be known as "The Shattering." Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinski is one of the co-founders of Boss Key Productions, the other of which is Arjan Brussee, the main coder behind Jazz Jackrabbit games and a co-founder Guerrilla Games.

When every word starts with a capital, none of the capitals have meaning. Entire sentences have no meaning. What possible benefit is there for this insane habit? Wake up Slashdot, use caps only when required.
Or, if you really want to be stupid, cap every letter: CLIFF BLESZINKSI blah blah.
...omphaloskepsis often...

Edgy.
Was his feud with Jim Sterling after the hissy fit Cliffy threw over an 8/10 score. I rank Cliffy right up there with major douchebags like Randy Pitchford and Phil Fish.

Or maybe it was a runaway planet?
Wow, shattered moon in the sky so popular after Cowboy Bebop anime had it in 1998.
free-to-play.
that means it's not a real game.
it's part of a game with a series of purposeful grinding annoyances with something to buy and bypass the annoyance.
Shattered moon and all, Thundarr was around quite a bit before Bebop...
There must have been even earlier instances, like the very early movie that had a spaceship crash into the moon...

Wake me when there is something unique in a slashvetrisment.
Silence is a state of mime.
Thank you for not saying "Leaked"

dumbest game plot for sure
From the look of it, a better description might be The Real Quake III. The gameplay looks identical to old Quake with the Threewave Capture The Flag mod, which included the sub-mod grappling hook, and rocket jumping, a serendipitous discovery that fell out naturally from the physics.
Later hacks who were in charge of Quake (on retrospect, they got lucky with Quake I in spite of themselves) obliterated this stuff out of existence...and the game suffered...and in their arrogance they paid the price.
Don't mention names; these people were terrible.
