@AGuyWhoTweet5 R* also fell off

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@RaigeGames @YangyYoung And of course he goes into detail about the situation. As he is trying to provide a (although biased) full picture of what happened.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@RaigeGames @YangyYoung Tbh I find the hate wagon towards him overblown. He made a mistake. He got trialed in court for it. He apologized.

Why drag all this stuff out in the open?
People make mistakes.

He did not seriously hurt anyone (AFAIK). He was just in breach of conduct.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@YangyYoung Is there any way we can read up on the official verdict by the judge in court?

Writing someone text messages wouldn't be considered harassment in my eyes, especially if said person did not block / show any signs of not wanting to be contacted.

@videotech Never would have thought I'd be playing GTA when taking a shit - but R* did it.

On a more serious note - I am enjoying the ports and I believe Mobile is the perfect platform for these older titles in this age. Playing one mission while in between things is super fun and easy.

@wealth_turtle @crazyclipsonly Fuck that. My dog is more chill than most children (or adults). I'll bring my dog whereever as long as she isn't disturbing anyone.

@NeedForMadnessA @LegacyKillaHD These games weren't developed by Netflix though. They were developed by Video Games Deluxe (The studio that used to be Team Bondi, the developers of L.A. Noire)

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@LegacyKillaHD Because they were made by Video Games Deluxe (former Team Bondi) and not by "Grove Street Games" lmao.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@lickmyfuggindic @LegacyKillaHD Because 2K belongs to Rockstar.

It's unlikely but if Netflix wanted to they could buy them out (even against their will).

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@LegacyKillaHD I mean ... in theory they could go for it. Their market cap is more than 5 times of Take Two.

But I doubt Strauss or the board want to sell, and I highly doubt Netflix will risk a corporate takeover.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@kevin_cazun @videotech Video Games Deluxe is the former Team Bondi,
They have worked with R* for years - and I believe they truly are a capable studio.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@that1detectiv3 I have said it - and I'll say it again: Their games should be shorter.

RDR2 did not need to be 65+ hours.

20 hours would have sufficed fully.

I probably will never play BG3 but people constantly wanting to be included on every single game is why some things should be gatekeeped

Product management:

1/ is not same as CEO
2/ is not Data Science
3/ is not Product Design
4/ is not Product Marketing
5/ is not Project Management
6/ is not Software Engineering
7/ is not data / product analytics

Yet it is all of them.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@JustAnotherPM It is about understanding all of them - yes

Although it really blends together with project management at times, especially at smaller companies or teams

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@solidnazmija12 Having Franklin as an S level character is criminal...

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@LegacyKillaHD I vividly remember when playing GTA SA that I dreamed and envisioned how the next GTA would look like... and then I saw the trailer it exceeded my expectations.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@asdr317 @LegacyKillaHD I believe the budget is not really known, and we will get a more exact number when we get closer to release. Though it would definitely be more difficult to calculate anyway with many people at R* working on multiple projects at the same time.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@PaganProphet91 @JasonRocco77 @LegacyKillaHD Lets make a very simple example.

If I had 1000 hours of Metin 2

vs

15 hours of Max Payne 3

for 70 $

I'd take Max Payne 3 any day.

@likemho @SpicyNoods23 @LegacyKillaHD Every software project has risk of failure, and the larger project is, the harder it becomes to mitigate those risks.

Larger projects mean more effort on coordination, less channeled responsibility, more variables for things that can go wrong.

[Big Jim Colosimo @chi_colossimo]

@likemho @SpicyNoods23 @LegacyKillaHD I am not talking about demand based risk obviously.

I am talking about the risk of such a large development project for things to go wrong. (and things DID go wrong with a dev cycle of over 10 years and practically footage being leaked).
