Dear Jon Stewart,
I love you:
A blast from the past.
I was sorting through old stuff over the weekend and found a DVD with this on it:
It’s the Imperator cinematic trailer we made for E3 2005. We had a lot of fun putting it together way back when, but I don’t remember if we ever showed it outside of the little “theatre” we had set up in our booth at E3 that year.
TRIVIA BONUS: The male narrator is played by Earl Boen – the psychiatrist from the Terminator films (among many, many other roles).
HEEEEY!!!!!
Now THIS is a video game commercial:
My kid brother and I used to get in fights over who got to play Pole Position on our TI-994A – 3.0 MHz of pure POWER.
An Insider’s View II.
I can’t believe I forgot to include this gem earlier:
An insider’s view.
Why, this may as well be a 30 second documentary on our quaint little industry, I tell ya!
Bonus points for the use of literal armchair designers.
IncGamers Interview(s)
This is one of a pair of interviews I did for these folks way back when during this year’s dismal E For All expo in LA. They didn’t have a mic and it was godawfully loud, so I wound up screaming for twenty minutes straight doing the two interviews. This one is the better of the two, if only because I stood closer to the camera and was therefore occasionally audible:
The other interview is here, if you feel you must watch it.
Brief disclaimer:
These interviews are a few months old, despite being posted very recently, so if I say something that seems to contradict current wisdom (i.e. our Q2 launch date), assume that the lag between recording and posting is to blame.
E for All Interview – Gametrailers
A quick interview I did with the always great Daniel Kaiser over at the Gametrailers booth at E for All:
New podcast – WAR’s Combat System
This month’s podcast covers – for the first time – the total combat system featured in WAR. CJ and I are both stupidly proud of the chariot “engine” gag.
