John Romero(better known as the guy that madeDoom) apparently thinksGamecockare a bunch of twats. Or more specifically, he thinks so of Gamecock’s CEO, Mike Wilson.

When Ubisoft Montreal first set out to bringFar Cry 2to the PS3, they braced themselves for the worst. After all, they too had heard the rumblings from other developers that the console was a headache to develop for. However, once they dug a little deeper into the mysterious black box, they soon found that, just maybe, the PS3 was literally made for a game like this. “As we started R&D on PS3, was that the hardware architecture had a very nice fit with some of our technical design decisions....
