Odd vs. God (GDC 06)

[Xavier]

As seen on Oddblog

Lorne Lanning will be speaking at the Game Developpers Conference of this year. He will interview David Jaffe (Creative Director, Sony Santa Monica Studios), the director of God Of War.

This might be a very intresting "Odd vs. God" experience.

I'm dying to see this

[Coolmanbizkit]

So, Is that possibility of a new game?

[metroixer]

when is this taking place and where can I see it? The link seems to be giving me no information. Of course if you could be a good boy xav and copy-paste the conversation in a post .

[Xavier]

I won't be there sadly so I won't be able to
all the info I have is on that site

You mean the 2 combined?
No.

[used:)]

No, anyone in their right mind would know that Lorne wouldn't be dumb enough to try and fuse two games. He is asking if there will be a new oddworld game.

[Cullen Heath]

Oh, good. I thought he was saying both Oddworld and God of war together!

No, I don't think there will be a new Oddworld game anytime soon.

Info of the moment: an ex Oddworlder Mark Ahlin (Abe's Exoddus : Digital Artist ; Munch's Oddysee: Game Design & Environments and Efx) workend on the game God Of War.

Anyway I'm not sure I understood who's next project will be revealed... I think it was Jaffe's ones, sadly.

[Shrink]

So, Is that possibility of a new game?

...What?


Anyway, I guess it looks all right. It'll just be interview based around God of War, an apaprently good game that I know nothing about... little Oddworld stuff at all.
I'll read up on it though.

[Xavier]

God Of War was an excellent game. I finished and I loved it.

If you guys want more info about Jaffe here's his blog:

This is a common thing in the conference circuit - a professional to be interviewed by one of his peers. Happens a lot for authors especially.

So in this case, Lorne is interviewing David Jaffe and this has nothing to do with Oddworld beyond his presence.
