Your favorite (or least favorite) people in the gaming industry! - Jun 09, 2004 03:29
So who in da game industry makes a difference to YOU?

Bernie Stolar
The ugliest man in gaming besides Shigeru Miyamoto. He needs to shave. He believes in focus groups, and using focus groups is the WORST thing you can ever do in the gaming industry (they resulted in the redesign in the Saturn controller from Japan to US, box art, Xbox type HUGE controller, etc etc etc).

Shigeru Miyamoto
Slap a pair of glasses on this guy and he looks exactly like Austin Powers. He comes up with cool ideas for games, but I am personally getting kind of tired of Nintendo.

Peter Moore
The biggest moron in he industry. I mean wow. Now he will ruin Microsoft.

Yuzo Koshiro
The once great musician is like a helium balloon. Once rising, rising, and rising as far as the eye could see. Then it wore out and back down it comes, until it is just a limp pile of rubber on the ground that people step on.

Nobuo Uematsu
See Yuzo Koshiro' s description above. The same applies to Nobuo.

Anyone who has ever worked for Sega of America
Word has it that you must pass an IQ test before working there. Anything over 50 and you are not allowed to work there. IQ ceiling is limited to 12 in the marketing department.

Chris Hüsslebutt
Great music for Super Turrican and the like, but seems to have died or something. There are two ways of spelling his name. I asked him which he preferred. He said it doesn' t matter (true story by the way). So " Husslebutt" it is!

Richard Jaques
Very friendly guy who used to work for Sega of Europe, great musician. Did he get out of the industry? Great guy to talk to, and I wish he still contributed.

Yasunori Mitsuda
This is the guy people get hard-ons for due to his work in Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, and Xenogears. But now he can be put into the same category with Yuzo and Nobou. His work on the Street Fighter Anniversary Album was horrid. Seems to like Irish music.

Spencer Nilsen
Great musician (at times) over at Sega of America. He hasn' t done anything with himself lately. He took a lot of flack for changing Sonic CD' s music for no reason whatsoever. While his music was good, there simply was no reason to change it. But we forgive him because he also did the phenomenal music for Ecco CD as well as Batman Returns and some cool tunes for Spiderman. Has anyone checked the rehabs to see if he was there?
