A boring update

Wed Sep 27, 2006, 10:29 AM
Might be a good time to let you know that I'm not unemployed anymore, haven't been for quite a while now. The Gizmondo disaster is just a memory one looks back at and laughs at now. Too bad I never got a dime of all those wasted millions though...

For the moment I'm working at Eidos Studios Sweden, developing a PSP title (don't ask, can't tell ya). One thing's for sure, I'm dead tired of developing for handheld consoles. I can hardly remember the days when I was allowed more than 100 triangles and a 64x64 texture for an object...

Oh, and since no one ever bought any of my prints I created here, I found it necessary to buy a couple of them myself, just to keep me from crying when watching the sales statistics. The Templar and Snake looks mighty impressive, but the Cheetah print has a little aliasing on the grass in the largest print when examining close up.

And finally, haven't done much art lately. I want nothing more than to start working on a nice image, but I still haven't come up with a decent enough idea for one. So...until I do....

  • Listening to: 10001110101
  • Reading: The Malloreon
  • Watching: Firefly. Over and over...
  • Playing: Nothing! Every game sucks right now.
  • Eating: Köttfärssås o makaroner
  • Drinking: Green tea

hey, congrats for getting that position at Eidos, that's good to hear! =) and tell us what you are working on, as soon as you're allowed to, yes? :aww:
how many polygons per object do they allow you on the psp? :lol:

I know the problem with selling prints... I have the print account over a year now, and in all that time I sold two prints through dA...making around 21 dollar :B
Your pieces are really great, though, the Cheetah one is not so much my thing, but the other two prints are awesome.

And I really hope you will do some new art soon! =)

I just googled Gizmondo. HOLY CRAP, that sounds like a nightmare. Glad to see you got a new job though.
:icondrocan:
Templar's on my wishlist right now, so just hold on 'till Christmas and you'll most likely get at least one more sale. And if nobody gets it for me, I'll probably just buy it myself. Either way, it will be on my wall by the end of 2006.

Whoohooo for a job. PSP sucks. DS ftw. Innovation over graphics.




Gizmondo? Kinda sucks. But even the biggest n00b could have said that 3 handhelds are... too much.

You have innovation and power, and you don't need another power. Didn't you get payed for Gizmondo?

Maloreon... great series...
If you want an idea, you could always recreate a scene from the book according to your perspective. :)
