You have been making games for quite some time now, how does it feel to be in "the biz" for so long?

I dunno really. I tried not to think about it because I'd only get depressed..... wondering why I just didn't go and become a construction worker, fireman or some other less hazardous profession.

LOL!

I do agree with the part about creativity though; some games seem as they are thrown out on the shelves just to fool a few people into thinking they're good and making a couple bucks. Like the recent Lord of the Rings games from Black Label, they seem like they were made only because of the recent popularity of LOTR.

Long live Battlecruiser!

BTW are the contrails in those exclusive screens bigger, cause they seem bigger to me. I noticed there were 2 and in the other shots of the Questar there are 3. I like 2 better.

To your fans, would you like to tell them anything else?

Not particularly. Except maybe to say that sometimes decisions made by people who are in the position to make such decisions, rarely sit well with those people on the outside looking in. At the end of the day, the decisions I have made in the past are the sole reason that you have Battlecruiser titles to play this day. Trust my judgment as you always have. I know exactly what I'm doing - and it is for the good of everyone involved in this IP.

Trust in the hope, for it has not forsaken these lands as some would have you
think.

Good. That makes me feel better about BCTC being canceled and 3000AD moving to the Xbox. I am assuming there will be other Xbox titles besides GCE, is this correct?

Can you give us a hint about the type of game the Xbox title will be? What elements from the Battlecruiser engine and technology will be used in it, if any?

While I can't tell you much, I can tell you that it will not be a Battlecruiser game. At all. It only takes place in the Battlecruiser world, features most of its characters and will sport the same open ended and multi-genre game play in the dynamic freeform universe that my Battlecruiser games are notorious for.

Hint: Complete and total immersion. Never before seen nor experienced in any PC title, let alone a console title

Cool! Come on, I wanna know more!

Why isn't anyone else posting in this thread? I think it's a very interesting interview.

Why'd you have to locate it on Google?

I didn't have too, I was doing a search on some keywords looking for a direct comparison of some like titles, here is where I found it.
