He looks like he’s 80 in this picture. Maybe he should leave Lionhead Studios to become a creative director at a retirement home. Then all his empty promises won’t matter cus all the other senior citizens will forget he ever made them lol
Hideo Kojima its now up to you.
Lionhead was always a company good at raising expectations to an unrealistic high and ending up disappointing the gamers.
Bullfrog was a great company, though
As an xBox 360 fan I don’t give a damn. Your games looked amazing on paper, but I haven’t finished a single one (except those olders – Syndicate, Dungeon Keeper and Populous (spelling?), but they weren’t for xBox).
