I heard that BG, MG, and Lockeye had all accepted positions with Green Monster Games.

Of course, I do not have personal knowledge of this, and am not going to say where I heard it. My information is reliable, in my opinion. Take that for what it's worth, time will tell the truth.

Yikes, the dev was Lockeye? That sucks, he seemed pretty good from what I'd seen. And of course, MG/BG were big losses as is, but I think Sony will be just fine (obviously).

I swear I saw Lockeye on the forums last night.

I wonder what's so great about Green Monster Games.

*shrug* perhaps a chance to start something ground-up, and not make all the mistakes? haha

I also understand he hasn't left yet.

Well whats the avg life span of a dev working for a company? Like 3-5 years?

A buddy of mine started out as a programmer for Nintendo, then a few latter he moved to some other game company. Now he works for Compaq back in Houston since he said the avg life span working for a game company programming can be just a few years and he didnt want to keep moving around but I dont know, not my IT field.

That and the chance at a little creative freedom. To be able to make a "gamers" game, which was mentioned in another thread, has a lot of draw to it. Whether that is something that would actually happen or not remains to be seen.
