Father of the shooter series Gears of War, Jeff Bleszinski called out actress Olivia Munn on Twitter, which sparked much outcry on Twitter.
According to the former director of Epic Games, Munn has been rude to G4 members on set, stealing wardrobe outfits, and had her own ice cream truck at San Diego Comic Con. This may be a fight to watch.
