At E3, I had the pleasure of speaking with the guys at Big Machine Design about their Front Mission trailer for Square Enix. Recently we sat down again to discuss another project from Square Enix they have been working on, along with projects for other companies. You may recognize some of their stuff from NFL GameDay, Animal Planet, and more. These guys put together the stuff you don't think twice about, but it can make or break the appearance of a show, trailer or commercial. A lot of people fail to realize that someone had to design and create that awesome graphic. In a increasingly 3D world, the competition is tough for any design team. Big Machine Design is definitely on the right track; taking special emphasis on what their client wants, as well as the audience. For my interview with Steve Petersen (Creative Director at BMD) about all their current projects, read on!

What started off as a joke between Monkey Island veteran Ron Gilbert and Grumpy Gamer's Clayton Kauzlaric in an online flash comic, evolved into a genre bending dungeon crawler of epic proportions. Deathspank was conceived as a parody of over-the-top action heroes with the most ridiculous name possible. He grew into a persona of his own, and became the star of a new action adventure title.
This week's Ask The GameGirls question comes from RealityLover13. He writes:
Hey Girls,
Love the site. I'm a big fan of both gaming and reality shows. So my question is this: If you ladies were all put onto the Ultimate Gamer (Sorry ladies, it's the only show I can think of that had gamers.), who do you think would win and why?
Thanks,
