Sept 09 – Current Animator – L.A Noire (PS3, Xbox360)

Animator on Rockstar’s L.A Noire for next generation consoles assisting in:…

Eurocom Entertainment Software, Derby, United Kingdom
July 09 – Sept 09 Animator – GoldenEye 2010 (Wii)

Animator on Activision’s James Bond series for the Nintendo Wii

First off, I should probably note that Eurocom did porting work on Treyarch’s Quantum of Solace game from last year.

So if the Bizarre Creations’ 2010 Bond game is another Goldeneye, does this mean that the racing game rumors are unfounded?

Also, Bond interactive license-holders, can’t be we get over this improper canonization of the massively overrated Goldeneye and focus on the actual best Bond game ever, Everything or Nothing? (Activision, your new SF studio has some integral dudes from that game, just saying.)

We already know that LA Noire is probably multiplatform, so there’s no reason to really rant about that. My apathy towards LA Noire also factors in there.

We’re hiring another programmer into the new company, to do very interesting work with full-body motion tracking.

If interested, email me: jon@number-none.com. Please have substantial 3D game development experience and be good at what you do.

At first I thought Jonathan Blow was referring to motion capture, but then I noticed a recent interview where he said that “The Witness may use these [motion] controllers but only in a relatively simple way.” Hmm…
What if EA had an internal start up? The BAFTA-winning Boom Blox team is an agile, closely-knit group which answers questions by prototyping before building design documents.…

Our last two titles were Wii-based, but our next titles will be for the next generation.

So I guess that EALA PS3 motion/Natal game is the next entry in the Boom Blox franchise. Though, given Spielberg’s excitement for Natal, it wouldn’t surprise me if LMNO/Eve was also waggletastic.

Wikipedia says the studio’s was founded by a group of ex-Kush Games/2K LA (MLB and NHL 2K series up until 2K8) people.

PopCap has filed a trademark registration for Yetitrain.

Locomotion and cryptozoology? I’m so there. Actually, PopCap alone means I’m so there.

The estate of Walter Cronkite has filed a trademark registration for his last name for a litany of things including “computer games” and “video games.”

It does also say “children’s educational software,” so that is the most likely form it would take.

Former Naughty Dogs* startup Big Red Button Entertainment have filed a trademark registration Ten Minute Man.

I’m going to presume the game is longer than ten minutes.

*I was wondering for about fifteen minutes what to call a Naughty Dog employee, but it seems Naughty Dog is what you call them.

But when Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau wrote “Guitar Hero 5” into the script, making Vaughn a salesman for the game in the film, Activision wound up signing on as well.

“When we heard that Vince’s character is a salesperson of the videogame we laughed hysterically,” said Will Kassoy, senior VP of publishing for “Guitar Hero” at Activision. “We thought it was a perfect way to showcase the new game.”

Vaughn and Favreau, who are fans of the game, wrote a major scene where a character grabs the game’s guitar-shaped controller to compete against a resort staffer in order to move the plot forward.

So, Call of Duty for Couples Retreat 2 (which, if Universal has any respect for the common decency of humanity, will never happen)?
