  He was responsible for Dungeon Keeper and Syndicate. Not even the turds that are Black and White and its sequel can cover that up. :(

    B&W is both the game that I was hyped the most for and the biggest disappointment to me.

      thankfully I wasn't a shacker back when b&w came out, I enjoyed the game for what it was. Then got fucking annoyed that the game was repetition and horrid micromanagement. So I did what do in all boring god games.

    I love Syndicate and Magic Carpet, and if he doesn't make a sequel to either of them he can rot in hell for all I care!

    I think I was one of the few people that actually liked Black and White. Played it a lot, even with it's faults. A friend of mine and I would constantly compare the progression of our creatures and what they did and what we had taught them to do. Then again, if B&W came out for the first time today as opposed to back then, I'd probably have hated it.

  He makes some valid points in the article, really. I don't agree with all of it, of course, but for someone who has done so much for early PC games I can't just discount his opinion the matter.
