3.09.2006 David Jaffe, markers, whiteboard. "Right now, I'm sitting here at my whiteboard with my dry-erase marker and I'm trying to figure out how to get this level to work in our new game for the PSP. That's all there is. On one hand, that's nice because all of the bullshit goes away and you ask yourself, do you truly enjoy the work of being a game designer? There are days where I find the answer is a resounding yes. I'm obsessed with it and I love it. Then there are days where I just want to fucking get out of here and go see the movies because I'm so not in the creative zone. I don't know if that will be it for the rest of my career, if it'll all be about the work or if something else will come along." 1Up.com reposts an OPM interview with David Jaffe, mastermind behind the love letter to reptile brain-thinking. Go read, not just for bits like the above, but to hear one of the few plain-spoken folks making games right now just shoot the shit on whatever. posted by chris # 1:33 PM Comments: Post a Comment << Home 02.04 03.04 04.04 05.04 06.04 07.04 08.04 10.04 11.04 12.04 01.05 02.05 03.05 04.05 05.05 06.05 07.05 08.05 10.05 11.05 12.05 01.06 02.06 03.06 04.06 06.06 07.06 08.06
