EnderAndrew Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Who was it that was going to call up Interplay and buy the rights to Jefferson? He couldn't afford a long distance call out to California to look up their number, but he thought he could buy the license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Surlent Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 If I remember right, Harvey Smith also recently accepted a job in Midway. He was the lead designer of Deus Ex and project leader of DX: Invisible War. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Child of Flame Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 They will never make a CRPG with a lineup like that. If they did so, they would be assimilated by EA. :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellester Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 When I assume this, am I correct? Midway only does console games. Life is like a clam.

Judge Hades Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 What we need to do is setup Midway that we can get all these designers to do one project, make it a CRPG, and for the PC. Hmm... Sounds like a Mission: Impossible scenerio. Dammit, where is tom Cruise when you need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roguefrog Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 It's gotta be tough living down in Sunny San Diego. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why, cost of living?

J.E. Sawyer Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Are they all working on the same project? No. Tom Hall works on third party titles out of San Diego. John Romero is the Creative Director for San Diego and is working as a designer on a map for Gauntlet. Harvey Smith is at Midway Austin and I don't know anything about Warren Spector. Dave Maldonado and Terry Spier (Slyle) are also working on Gauntlet. twitter tyme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I don't have a basis for comparison since I lived in San Diego/North County my entire life. In other words I've never lived in the real world. (i.e everything outside of California) I hear we have great weather. To this I must concur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderAndrew Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Wow. A California admits there is a real world outside of California. I knew a bunch of people that simply referred to the Midwest as the "dirt states". One guy in San Diego though Omaha was Africa. No joke. He saw Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom with lions and tigers. So he thought that's what Omaha was like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Last part I was just kidding, please don't rock my world with the first though. ) Anyhow, the Southern Californians call us up North Cow People....so we probably don't count anyway.
