  1. Good company indeed. Ever been named as a “creative mastermind” before? Not too shabby.

    That list is a nice reference for those of us looking to get into the industry. It’s the who’s who of the video game production world. I only knew about 10 or 15 percent of the names on that list.

  2. rofl at Number 5:

    At the time, EA had been touting the arrival of Madden’s new liquid AI, to which Flock said: “Liquid AI is the crap that ran down [EA’s] leg when they saw GameDay.”

  3. Not a single woman. Still.

    20 years ago, I really thought there would be at least a few women in there. Guess gaming is still a boys world.

    Correction, one woman – Samantha Ryan (CEO, Monolith).

    Does it count if some of the guys there have girly haircuts?

  5. Not a single woman. Still.

    Heh, I was going to say the same thing, but there were a few I could swear were women, and then of course there was Samantha.

    I’m absolutely sure this in no way contributes to the sorts of games that dominate video gaming. Oh no… 🙂

  6. Ye gods and little fishies. That list is definitely not representative of the percentage of women in the industry. One person argued that it was mostly execs, but there are, as it happens, quite a few femmes in suit-land — including production and creative direction. Heck, I can name two experienced female exec producers in the MMO space, alone.

    Still, we need more of them. As long as most of the execs are male and most of the designers are male and most of the developers are male, they are going to have difficulty satisfying the gaming desires of the female half of the audience.
