GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Tuesday, Apr 29, 2008

So, I'm the new Marketing & PR Producer at Obsidian Entertainment down here in sunny and hot Orange County, California. Suffice to say that I wouldn't have left GameSpot for just any old job. When the Marketing/PR position opened up down here at Obsidian, though, I had to leap at the opportunity.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am a big PC RPG guy from way back, and I was an especially big fan of stuff like Baldur's Gate and the other Infinity Engine games. So the opportunity to work with the people who created stuff like Fallout and Icewind Dale, you have to know that I'm going to take it.

At any rate, things seem pretty cool down here at Obsidian. People are hard at work on Alpha Protocol, Aliens RPG, and some other projects which I look forward to talking about in the future. We'll see what happens from here on in, but it should be a fun ride.

Good luck with your new job and thanks for never making me feel like an idiot when I turned to one of your guides when I got stuck.

Hopefully we will get to meet up again soon for a look at that Aliens RPG. Just be sure you can "put the girl in charge" and that the xenomorphs "mostly come out at night . . . mostly."

Obsidian made some of my favorite games ever. Good luck, Matt!

Good to hear you landed an awesome position. Keep us posted on how things are going.

Thats great to hear! The Fallout guys work there, eh? I envy you, really. Knowing me, I probably would've had a panic attack just being asked to work with the creators of my favorite RPG. Anyway, I hope you like your new job.
