Yeah, that was the correct answer

You misspelled C++

That AI most definitely did not replicate Doom. It was a mess.

Good for them. I still can’t fit in their 30" pitch seats.

OMG that EAR!!!

What blows my mind is that I could right now recreate this in moments on a cheap, low-power microcontroller.

The layoffs will continue until the XBox sales improve

Edit: holy shit, just remembered that a fresh MS recruiter got in touch with me just a couple weeks ago for a term contract position on an XBox product. I’m guessing this is gonna be their new strategy: no more layoffs, just let the contracts expire! I don’t need that kind of uncertainty in my life.

At least Michelle didn’t look like Withers with a wig.

LOL, holy shit. Fixed.

This time, my eyes shot straight to the bottom. I’ve been trained.

They likely had some outlandish request or policy that was anathema to the department’s mission, and just assumed that they would cave. Seems like good leadership stuck to their principles, and the good leaders were followed by teams who weren’t willing to lose that.

If the owner is smart, they’ll backtrack, make concessions when hiring everyone back, and learn from their fuckup. In reality, I hope the new company that forms from the exodus finds fast success.

Like, maybe the new company that forms from the entire team that left

LOL, they say they’ll replace the staff and honor existing contracts. It’s gonna be shit quality. All their partners will be better off severing ties, reclaiming paid funds, and going with the new company that inevitably forms from the department previously known as Annapurna Interactive.

Bet you feel like an idiot now!

You mean the agony of deciding which one to dig out of my bin of PS/2 keyboards?

Sounds groundbreaking for 1997.
