Prince of Persia producer says game's risks have gone unappreciated {Joystiq}
Dec 23rd 2008 4:33PM No need for swearing. I agree that if you solely use this argument with EVERY profession, it does not work. There would be no janitors, fast food workers, sewage treatment workers, etc. But look on the other side of the scale. When all people work for is cash, you find yourself with company CEO's getting millions in bonuses when the company is receiving government bailouts. This country is built on free market capitalism, so if you are the richest with the most awards, you "win", no matter how many lives you ruin in the process.
Back to the thread: It's my opinion that he should be confident in his and his team's work that he doesn't need to go on a rant to IGN about not getting any awards or "pats on the back" for the game. The game is still young too. It's only 21 days released. Psyconauts was VERY critically acclaimed, but didn't sell hardly any copies. Where as "Marvel: Ultimate Alliance" ships 2.08 million in US (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games) and is horrible.

Dec 23rd 2008 3:54PM BigFat: What industry do you work in? My company is extremely profitable, and we pride ourselves on hiring only individuals that want to work for the best possible product, not to get paid. It's the difference between working to live, and living to work.

Dec 23rd 2008 3:39PM This seems like a ego trip to me. "Shake up the industrys and push things forward". THAT'S YOUR JOB. As a game developer, you should automatically be thinking of things to push the genre.
It's sad to me when people crave accolades. That to me says he's making games for the money and awards, not for the love of the medium.

Oct 29th 2008 2:49PM FYI everyone... the company's name is "Linden Lab". Not "Linden Labs". If you're going to post, please get it right. Small things like this make your arguments less effective.
