Next-Gen Development, Rockstar

Looks like Neil Young of EA gave a very interesting talk at the Tokyo Game Show. In particular, the way he summarizes EA’s product strategy as "high-quality execution, 1-3 design innovations and audience appeal [being] the ideal combination to produce both a critical and commercial hit."

Lots of comments all over the place about the Nintendo Revolution controller. It feels like the Big N is going all-or-nothing: either it redefines gaming and Nintendo becomes the top dog again, or it is seen as a short-lived gimmick and Nintendo is definitely relegated to the niche gamer audience. My personal bet is on the latter; I can’t see this controller making gaming more natural and attractive to people who don’t already play games.

This is really funny! The people at Rockstar have some attitude.
