David Perry (Earthworm Jim, Enter the Matrix) is working with Acclaim on an MMO that will incorporate gamer's input. The project is currently named "Top Secret." Players will have the opportunity to participate in the entire video game development process. Perry will choose a winner from the contributors to the game and they'll receive a "Video Game Industry Directorship" and work under Perry on a new MMO."This is the only chance I know of to jump start a directorship career in the video game industry," says Perry. "They get to learn how to make professional games, and if they get anything in, they get a real professional credit on their resume ... if they win, well then they get their life changed."
If this sounds like a game show, it is. Acclaim doesn't hide the fact, comparing this whole scenario to the likes of The Apprentice or American Idol. All we know is if people do good work on the project that is some amazing free labor for Acclaim.
