Erm, I'm not sure I like being compared to a murderer :) But, since it's Charley, I'll take it as some sort of compliment?

I call this my "zombie apocalypse" shot. I would never kill living people! Only already dead ones. Living dead, as it were.

And, flip-flops are part of my "uniform" ;) I <3 the games industry.

I don't know about compliment, but its sort of eerie, decorum aside.

Good war face though :)

How'd you like that Benelli?

It was actually lighter than I thought it would be. Very solid feeling weapon, though.

Makes me wish I could be around for when the team goes to the range.

And here's another one for good measure:

You just have to kill the monotony, sometimes. ;)

Do they let you go wild with designing your own work areas, there?

If you were to do a fantasy game, would they let you get your hands on real swords as well?

I had to ask. That's pretty freaking awesome.

Every day is insanely different and fun! I love it so much. The challenges of developing crazy software are totally worth it.

And, yes, work areas are highly personalized, as you'd expect.

:) If I had my own company, I so would.

It's a good possibility.
