Randy Pitchford (CEO of Gearbox) has said that while developer and makers are clearly class acts, he'd like to see the firms crafting something new.

"I keep waiting to hear what Bungie is going to do thats not Halo," Pitchford said to Videogamer at E3.

"Those guys are amazing, right? They walk on water! And the same with Infinity Ward. It's like, dude I'm totally psyched to get my Call of Duty fix every year, but you guys are amazing! What else have you got? Can you give me something I haven't seen before?"

Pitchford understands of course, but believes game makers should perhaps be better rewarded for taking risks - something he believes are doing with Borderlands. More from Randy and co soon.
