FiringSquad chats with Titan Productions co-founder Brad Foxhoven about their company that is marketing game development deals to Hollywood, including a recently announced title based on the classic crime film Heat. You can check out the interview right here (http://www.firingsquad.com/news/newsarticle.asp?searchid=10810). Here is a snip:
FiringSquad: The release of EA's The Godfather got mixed reviews and was not as big of a sales success as was first imagined. How will this release affect what you plan to do with Heat?
Brad Foxhoven: Godfather had big expectations – possibly too big to ever reach. Plus, they didn’t have Gearbox, and I think that this is a strategic advantage. We are also watching Scarface, and hope that does well for obvious reasons. In the end, we are also competing with other heist games. So, we need to be extra good at this to make sure we get above the noise.
