Did Mythic just open a Pandora's box? Will the IGDA begin (or continue) asking all of the other game developers and / or publishers to do the same as Mythic is attempting to do?

Of course IGDA will continue asking everyone to do at least what Mythic is doing. And they should continue asking it. Unless you're ashamed of the game that you've done, you generally want to include all your games on your website anyway as it adds to your company reputation. How hard is it to include a credit for everyone who has worked on the game as well?

When the controversy Started Mark was upset as he rightly could be, but discussing things with him on the side put my worries to ease. Getting credit for work done is important to this industry and he definately realizes that. He thinks that if Mythic and a few other studios can start pushing for this sort of database, it may go beyond just the credits on a games manuel, credits that mobygames and other sites can pull from. Good to see that we at Mythic and the IGDA could work through this and hopefully pull other studios into a way that all developers on a project could get recognition for their hard work.
