GameSpy talks with David Perry, creator of the Earthworm Jim series of console platform games, about his upcoming foray into the MMORPG sphere.GameSpy: What compelled you to give the MMO thing a go, let alone involve yourself with something as non-traditional as 2Moons?More...
David Perry: Well, there are plenty of business models for games, but the trend is towards charging more (when we really should be charging the price of movie tickets or maybe a DVD). Then there's a trend towards adding more revenue streams (like advertising) without considering the consumer first. I think this is a mistake.
Then again, everyone has opinions, so I guess my task has been to put my money where my mouth is, and I plan to be one of the people that put the consumer first. Sounds noble, but in fact I think it will be good business too.
