ysbreker Posted June 28, 2006 Eurogamer has a nice 2 part (part 1 part 2) interview with Warren Specter about game development. Favorite quote for now: Does anyone think all music should be aimed at the top of the Billboard charts? I sure don't want to live in a world where everyone sounds like Britney Spears... oh, wait, I already do... Anyway, you get my point... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpiderMonkey Posted June 28, 2006 I'm still munching through these, but thought I would chip in with another Looking Glass alumnus interview I came across at around the same time. Randy Smith (Part 1 Part 2) talks about Thief 1 through 3. Reader warning: Interviewer has annoying habit of trying to push his opinion onto interviewee. When is Idle Thumbs next doing another interview?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oath Posted June 28, 2006 Yeah, spotted the Eurogamer interview earlier, and while it contains some very well expressed opinions on Spector's part, it really suffers from not being longer. I wish they would have emailed him a batch of follow-up questions and also gotten him to type up some lengthier answers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redwall Posted June 29, 2006 He seems to have a phobia of lengthy answers, though. He keeps commenting "Oh, this is a book!" All I can think is, "If only!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SiN Posted June 29, 2006 He seems to have a phobia of lengthy answers, though. He keeps commenting "Oh, this is a book!" All I can think is, "If only!" I think he was more worried about the readers having "a phobia of lengthy answers". Which sounds about right, judging by the attention span of most of the internet. Cracking interview though. Worth checking out the interview Eurogamer did with Gabe Newell too ... here and here. SiN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oath Posted June 29, 2006 Warren Spectre! Yeah, sorry, but that's about as much work as I'm going to put in for an idea that crummy. Notice how his glasses glow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
