Back from work experience
16 years ago
ust got back from my last day there, and all I can say is that after spending 3 full days there, I can safely say that I had a fantastic time being there! The atmosphere was brilliant, and the people who work there are friendly and helpful. They've got nice offices too! I did get to test some games, but they are to be kept top secret so I'm afraid I can't say which games I tested.
I also got to play Fable II on the XBOX 360 a lot, and completed it today! It's really good! Glad I had a chance to play it because I don't own an XBOX 360. Reasons are because my family have far too many computers and consoles in the house (only a few of them are mine), and my dad is not a fan of Microsoft so he wouldn't like it if I ended up getting one. Shame really, because apart from the console's reliability issues (RROD anyone?) I have been tempted to get one as there seems to be a lot of very good games for it. Then of course there's XBOX Live.
So overall, I really enjoyed working for Lionhead Studios. Before, I just knew that they made great games, but now I know that they are a fantastic company to work for as well! I'm seriously considering working there full time, and seeing as its my birthday soon I will try and see if I can get the Mac ports of all their games (I'm more of a Mac user than a Windows one). I know they don't get much for these versions (probably nothing at all, since the Mac versions are done by Feral Interactive), but it just comes to show that I will always love them and their games, no matter what I play them on and how much I pay for them!
Lionhead Studios... BEST GAME DEVELOPER EVER!!!
