David Jaffe's latest blog entry, as vulgar-laden as usual, was a liveblog of his day at a focus test for
Calling All Cars (previously
Criminal Crackdown), an upcoming PlayStation 3 downloadable title. You won't find much in terms of new game details, but aspiring game developers could learn a lot from this manic entry.
We know that some of you out there don't appreciate Jaffe's verbose language or feel like the designer, who's probably known best for
God of War, hasn't "earned" his street cred yet, but naysayers can still walk away from this transcript with an understanding of the inordinate amount of anxiety put on game makers when they watch their projects get critiqued and criticized by various demographic representative, for better and worse, and how technical issues will vastly affect the situation.
Calling All Cars is planned for a release next month in the range of $5 to $10.
