Cheez: You worked on Strangers Wrath? That was such a great game, didn't care for it initially but the farther you went the better it got. Mostly cause the weapons kept getting better, though if it wasnt for the bee gun would've been screwed on the final boss.
skankerzero: Was the Demonik game just for Grandmas Boy? I could have sworn it was advertised as a full game at some point before the movie was released.
Unfortunatly can't really contribute to this thread sense the two titles I worked on havn't been released. First was Arc Angels for XBLA and the other is an unannounced fps for 360.

Yup, Stranger's Wrath. Waaay back in the day. I was pretty much the sole character artist for the whole project. Some day, someone from the dev team needs to do a massive write up on the development on that game and all the crazy permutations it went through....
Skankerzero: Oops, directed it wrong when asking above, but was Demonik ever a 'real game'? I've been curious on this one for a while actually sense their were trailers released for the game itself before 360 came out.

Demonik was a real game with Majesco as the publisher. Majesco hit money issues and the game was shelved. We still own the ip though, so who knows.
Nicked from Danr's list as I've just had to drive over 150 miles this evening and I'm knackered hehe
GTA chinatown wars ( no credit in manual.... wtf?! was last title I worked on before leaving R* Leeds- environment artist and testing)
GTA vice city stories (character/car artist/testing)
GTA liberty city stories (character/car artist/testing)
Midnight club 3 psp (a bit of testing)
bionicle gba (first title I worked on, did polish and some asset building)
max payne gba (worked on at same time as Bionicle, prop artist)
Skanker: I think its easy to get too caught up in defining what the rights are for us each to be allowed to say we shipped a game. I mean, think of the dozens of people who all worked on Duke Nukem Forever?
I know what you are trying to say, and I think I agree with you but I think we need to consider how many people working hard at say, external outsourcing firms like Liquid or Streamline we'd accidentally be cutting out of their credit.
The way we work now, with bigger teams, with more reliance on outsourcing solutions and freelancers, I find it harder to call it now than I used to as the industry has changed.
I sort of consider the games I was truly invested in as things I shipped and things I wasn't as projects I merely contributed to. I mean in terms of our writing lists for kicks on a messageboard which is different than our using our past titles as a bargaining chip when applying for a job.
When I was putting paperwork together and 'documenting' my history for my Visa application, you better believe that every contribution I ever made was to a 'shipped title' where I was gosh darned near irreplacable heh

We actually rendered all the fights out of our engine and the actors pretended to play.
I also did all the character renders for the characters you see throughout the office for Eternal Death Slayer.
The 'concept art' that he's working on is actual concept art from comic book artist David Finch.
Demonik was a real game with Majesco as the publisher. Majesco hit money issues and the game was shelved. We still own the ip though, so who knows.
Good to hear, I actually didn't do much art on it, I was the designer
