Notable quotes
“I can empathize with people who conceive of pinball machines and design mechanical elements and code these incredible machines and work on licensing deals and get them out to the public. And then people just talk about how shitty they are.”
“It gets under my skin when the criticism is levied at me but it gets under my skin when people are negative about anything that someone has made. I just think you don't know what it takes to make something.”
“If you don't like it, go find the thing you like. But you don't need to chime in and go that thing that has been your whole life for 18 months to two years wasn't worth it.”
“The entire run goes to Supreme, and they are selling the machine... I went through every back alley channel I could possibly find”
“I worked as hard on Johnny Mnemonic as I did on Lord of the Rings. Like, I put everything into it. I wanted it to be the best possible game it could be.”
“It's too fucking easy. It's the easiest game I've ever played in one of the newer games.”
“The simple answer is it's not for everyone, that game... it's like a palate cleanser between the brutal games. You can play a game that's just fun.”
“not everything is for everyone... You just have to find what that magic number is.”
“It's been really nice to be at home all this time... it reminded me like, oh yeah, there's so much about this that isn't big audiences and touring... There's something about just being in a band that's fucking awesome.”
“They wanted two games to start their collection. They went with Beatles and Jungle Queen. Simple to learn, I would say, in both cases, which is what you want.”
