Dean Longmore's Blog   Expert Blogs

I'm employed at Team Bondi in a design position. I spend the hours I'm not in the office working on my own ideas, watching cool shows, sleeping, reading, drinking and playing games. I aspire to progress in the video game industry and have my own designs and ideas published, either leading a small, focused team, or as part of a larger studio.

Marshal, after reading your retort, ...

Marshal, after reading your retort, I guess I have simply confused your genuine insulting of others with your overall aggressive, antagonistic tone of writing. I wont attempt to bring you down off your high horse, because apparently you're immune to the larger moral argument, and I take no issue with ...

Comment In: Meta Value Systems In Games [Blog - 08/21/2009 - 06:25]

Louise, I think you need ...

Louise, I think you need to take a moment to understand players. Unless you game is obscenely immersive, players will not be invested enough to follow the game's 'MVS', and will instead flex or abandon their own, and simply look for the most rewarding or efficient way to play the ...

Comment In: Sony Targets iPhone Audience With 'PSP Mini' Titles [News - 08/18/2009 - 08:33]

I'm skeptical of this move, ...

I'm skeptical of this move, especially the low price point - I think it can really damage the PSP and developers abilities to sell software on the platform. If I'm able to pick up a small game for 1, I'm very likely to scoff at the idea of paying 50 ...
