I just remembered that this blog is now 6 years old. Or rather, on December 19th 2008 the blog was 6 years old. But hey, who’s keeping count. Well, me, OK, I will grant you that. Anyway. 6 years. Wow. Pretty… meaningless. Apart from being a long time. Kind of. Not compared to the age […]
Hi. Remember me? I hate writing blog posts about not having blogged for a while, so I will keep that part short. I have been busy the last 6 weeks, but if you were to ask me what exactly I’ve been doing, I’d have trouble answering you. I read a book about accounting and am […]
GamesIndustry.biz interviewed Raphael Colantonio during last week’s Game Connection in Lyon about the loss of the EA project: “We’re moving on,” said CEO and creative director Raphael Colantonio. “We do have some reserves, some cash that allows us to wait for a while, to find deals and reassign staff. But the right deals – that’s […]
OK, this will likely only interest people who know a little about Viennese sub-cultures and slang and the current US elections… but if you do, you may find this OBAMOIDA T-shirt hilarious.

This evening I noticed three industry friends twittering about being sorry for their friends’ loss. I was worried – what was […]
Time to help friends with a little publicity: On October 1st, AIGameDev.com, one of the top websites for AI in games, launched a premium membership area. It contains a ton of content, such as code samples, an AI sandbox, technical reports, master classes, interactive discussions with experts, A/V sessions… The mind boggles. I can’t think […]
So what is this big news I alluded to earlier? First of all, on October 1st I moved to Lyon and started working for Arkane Studios as a producer on a title they are developing with Electronic Arts. If all goes well, I will permanently move from Vienna to Lyon at the beginning of 2009. […]
There have been two big pieces of good news in my life recently, and I’ve been wanting to tell you about them for weeks, but sadly both place huge demands on my time right now, and I want to write a proper post and not just off-handedly mention that… right. If I haven’t written a […]
Oh, it seems there will be a special event about social gaming at PICNIC 08 in Amsterdam on the 26th. Games go Social is a full day event probing the synergies between games and communities, organized in collaboration with PICNIC, the undeniably most original, pioneering and unusual get-together for creatives. The trend ‘Games go social’ […]
