Lorne is featured in the third episode entitled Game Design: Raising the Bar

Summary: Will Wright, Sid Meier, Shigeru Miyamoto… we all know the names. But how do today’s top designers always stay ahead of the game? Season 2 continues as we take a closer look at the qualities that define today’s most celebrated talents, and what it takes to make a hit in 2009. Join us as we discover how even living legends have had to adapt to keep pace with the constantly evolving game industry – and what changes these radical shifts herald for the entire field. Plus, how to score a job in game design, and whether or not pros still have a place in the age of user-generated content: All yours today, on Players Only!

Lorne is looking fuckin old. How old is he anyway?

***Xavier*** · #3 08-24-2009, 10:58 AM

I'd say he's about 44 years old...

So Lorne is out of story telling and into creating tools to create our own experiences? I really wonder how that's going to work out.

I was just thinking about that. I hope he lives long enough to see the completion of all these projects of his.

EDIT: Okay, that's reasurring.

Possibly a level editor?

Probably more in the Spore approach to gameplay.

Saw this on Kotaku, but will direct you to the site directly:

Second part of these interviews, and Lorne got a lot more to say in this part.

They even put him first!

Shouldn't Lorne be busy working on Citizen Ceige?

Bullet Magnet · #10 09-29-2009, 05:37 PM

Now hiring. Studio wanted.

***Wil*** · #11 09-30-2009, 04:39 AM

Yeah, Lorne should cut off all ties to the outside world while working solidly on Citizen Siege. Especially these interviews he gets paid to do during a time when he's got no income from games or films. What a waste.

***Xavier*** · #12 10-01-2009, 05:48 AM

You think he actually got paid for this?
It's not like it's a conference or something like that

***Wil*** · #13 10-01-2009, 06:39 AM

He could have done. People get paid for contributing interviews to documentaries.
