Okay, so some of you know that I used to work at a large software company that recently released a next generation game system.. Anyway, one of the games for said new system (Project Gotham Racing 3) has a feature that I spent alot of time working on before I left the company. Page 2 of This Review talks about the feature. I've quoted the paragraph below.
Also, I heard a rumor that I may be listed in the credits in the game. Which means I will have to buy it so that I can find out for sure. That's sorta cool.
"The new modes centered on Gotham TV are also kick ass in a spectator-friendly way. In the Gotham Heroes channel, you'll be able to see all the best players in the world racing while online. This mode taps into the leaderboards and the crème of the crop and generates their games on Live, so you can always jump on and see who the world's best racers are. As many as 30,000 people can watch the same race in Gotham TV simultaneously! Holy crap! The Friends TV channel enables you to see which of your friends is currently playing, so you can go watch them too. Taking a tip from the NY stock exchange, MS has set up a regularly running ticker tap that runs across the TV screen horizontally with news of the latest dude who broke your record! Aghh, dammit!"
