AnalogHype: You heard of True Hollywood Stories, well this is the gaming version of that. Matterfact this concept did not even get born until the end of this interview, you can witness it happen.

I don't agree with that. I WISH I could agree with that. But buying habits and customer opinions prove otherwise
We've seen developers in the AAA space try new things and ideas. More often than not, the customers aren't willing to give things a chance, or not enough people buy into the project for it to grow.

it's a nice idea and it worked during the PS2/PS3-era when AAA didn't cost hundreds of millions of dollars. smaller budgets and shorter development time left room for more creativity and more risk. a game didn't need to sell 4 million+ copies to break even. things are different now.
This is the guy who bragged about crunching his staff and having them work through the night. Crunch culture has lost more talent and done more damage to the industry than any other factor. Screw him.

The increase of gaming journalists allows gamers to learn about the many games and developers today.This benefits everyone.
Wow. Amazing interview. I hope for you to continue with this series, it's a nice breath of fresh air. I never knew the gaming industry used to be like that. Pretty in depth and i have alot of respect for Torrence Davis now. I'm trying to do the same thing myself with getting started with getting into radio and building my contacts in the NFL, CBS and other places.
that was a very deep interview. i didn't know Torrence was so old school, and "True Gamer Stories" sounds like a great listen.
