Last Friday, our buddy Chase from Access Communications invited Go! Gaming Giant to a conference call with Nick Baynes, the Game Director for Black Rock Studio, the developers behind Split/Second. Although a mostly non-interactive call, listening to Nick excitedly talk about their latest release and answer questions that we—and other members of the press—submitted beforehand was a real treat. Rather than transcribing bits and pieces and trying to emulate the feeling of such a call, I have decided to simply post an audio file so you can all listen to it for yourselves. Nick doesn’t mention a whole lot that we didn’t already know, but he reveals many interesting tidbits about the work that goes on behind the scenes, as well as the team’s hopes and motivations.
I was hoping to get the Split/Second conference call uploaded for everyone during the weekend, but I ran into technical difficulties. However, you may now feel free to listen and enjoy:
