Well, i actually like the article.  I *do* think it's a little ridiculous to have my every move published on the net and in magazines, though.  I definitely disliked Robert Coffey when he made that statement in his DK review - it's too bad most people didn't play past the first level because i'm pretty proud of level E1M2 on.

It's very frustrating to see people get their facts wrong:
* I did not come up with the Suck It Down slogan
* Daikatana took 3 years from concept to store shelves. This is hardly a long dev cycle.  DOOM3 took 5 years, Half Life 2 took 7, Duke Forever is on year 9.
* The Dallas Observer article came about because of a political situation with an ex-employee who wanted revenge
* The Ion 8 leaving happened because of an ex-employee wanting revenge
* I worked hard on the game - 9 months of crunch mode at the end

But, hey, Daikatana's old, old news now.  Like, over 5 years ago.  And the fact that everyone remembers that particular game instead of the dozens of other games I've made just shows how negatively slanted the media is - negativity sells.

<evil>When news of my new game somehow gets out, i think everyone will be a bit shocked.</evil>

For the record, i'm co-founder of a new game company in the bay area and am much better off in many ways than i was at Midway.  Much happier now.

:)


This has made my day !

it is sad that people other than those who are still playing DK for fun even care about it, so much has happened since then, and by now many things which seemed silly about DK like the dev time have become standard.

More important news is that John is working on a new game. Why isn't that in the back of CGW.

Oh and despite the fact that he isn't working on it anymore, I hope that Seven Sorrows comes out and is a good game, just because people will give undeserved shit to him if it sucks. That and I want to play a new Guantlet!

Yeah, and if the game goes over well, they won't say shit about him. It does suck.

Yeah, if someone calls you a pimp it basically it just means you have style and/or you get all the ladies.
