Haha true ;) Didnt mean anyone any disrespect, just was an initial opinion. Just because I don't like his doodle skills doesn't mean I don't think he's a respectable person. Hell, I can't doodle either, that's why I do 3d art lol. But I also don't make it a point to put it in my PowerPoint slides :p
I actually created the terrain on Red Dead Redemption, (game of the year) and modeled vehicles for Midnight Club LA. So yea I'm ringing.. Call US when you create any art, instead of defending doodles from your parents basement couch.
It's easy for those not in the game industry to speculate on his decision. I currently work for a major developer in LA and I signed a lease prior to getting the job. Unlike typical leased I must pay full rent for the duration of my lease if I break it. I commute 160 miles a day for work. Having a family and working mandatory "crunch" definitely puts a strain on any family. Just because games make millions and have big budgets most companies aren't willing to pay for this type of transfer. Unfortunately the employer makes the money the employee is always replaceable. Unfortunate indeed. I completely understand his rock and a hard place scenario.
Angry birds is EVERYWHERE, lol. I can't step out of my house without seeing it, Or it flying into my face. Pun totally intended, and probably forced. But yeah...I don't think I've ever seem a franchise whored out as much. I literally saw angry birds condoms at Walgreens already.
