Re: How much of your success do you attribute to talent?
I really very strongly disagree with the creative thing. I know what we do is commercial and a lot of the times you are working from concepts, but that doesn't mean you are mindlessly recreating this stuff, you need a hell of a lot of creativity to bring that to life, areas need resolving that concepts don't cover or even… -

Why 127 is the new 128
Please enlighten or correct me as to where I'm wrong thinking on this notion ...or I may just be tilting at windmills...

Games and 60 FPS : It's not all that good...
OK ok, risky thread here but a very interesting one if you think about it. 60 frame per second! Ha! The famous 60 frame per second that most PC gamers acknowledge daily in their games.
