David Jaffe: ‘The Reality Is, I’m Not Loyal To Any Company, Because I Think That’s Asking For Trouble’

Rashid Sayed — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 17:16:53 +0000

David Jaffe is well known for his two franchises: Twisted Metal and the one man army: Kratos. Both of the series have been Sony exclusives.In an interesting interview with CVG David Jaffe speaks about loyalty and his relationship with Sony.

“The reality is, I’m not loyal to any company, because I think that’s asking for trouble,” he reveals. “Have I had a great experience with Sony and am I loyal to the individuals that have helped me here who are just good and honest people? Absolutely, and I will always will be until they give me a reason not to – which in 20 years they never have.

“But I had a conversation with some of them a couple of months ago: ‘Hey, what’s coming after Twisted Metal?’ What struck me was how many more cooks are in the kitchen than there used to be; how many more people have to be pleased. That’s something true not just at Sony but anywhere within the big budget environment.

“When you’re spending that amount of a company’s money, you have to expect some oversight. But history will show on a company-by-company basis who had too much oversight, and when it ended up wringing the necks of the creatives. Some people will get the balance right – and some already aren’t.

David Jaffe on Twisted Metal Concerns

Rashid Sayed — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 10:56:16 +0000

Over at his blog, David Jaffe has addressed some of the concerns that the fans of Twisted Metal have about the way the characters are being handled. He said, “please keep in mind this Twisted Metal single player and co-op will be more varied than ANY TM you’ve ever played. We are NOT doing GTA style missions or vehicle escorts and such BUT we DO have mechanics laid on top of the core campaign deathmatch that adds to the play varied so you don’t get bored. We also have more bosses than any TM game. We also have around 35-45 minutes of live action and- when it’s done- super cool stories in the game (more than- I THINK- we’ve ever done). So while you may be disappointed by the fact that there are currently no plans for Marcus Kane or Bloody Mary or No Face, please know that the one player/campaign game you DO get is going to be the best one we’ve ever made.”

“We hear you. We talked about it at breakfast today and discussed possible ways to address the concern. Can we make those adjustments to the game in the time we have left? Not sure, no idea. But for those who respectfully voiced your issue, it is appreciated, the development and publishing team is aware of your issue, and we are looking to see if there is anything we an do about it. No promises at all. But just so ya know, ya’ll are being heard. And it’s appreciated.”

Jaffe won’t be at E3, nor will his top secret game.

As you might already know, David Jaffe has a secret title under development. The designer has just confirmed that unfortunately, neither he, nor his secret game will be attending next month’s Electronics Entertainment Expo.

The Eat, Sleep, Play founder passed this information through his twitter account. He also confirmed that Twisted Metal is not the secret game he’s working on.

Looks like we’ll have to keep waiting in order to find out what this secret title is.

Jaffe: Digital distribution is “really big deal”

Rashid Sayed — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 15:39:21 +0000

The founder of gaming studio Eat Sleep and Play, David Jaffe has said that the real innovations in video games do not come from motion sensing or cameras but from digital distribution. Speaking to UK Official PlayStation Magazine, he said: “3D has mattered, but in terms of microphones and cameras I couldn’t give a rat’s arse. I’m still trying to get good at making games with just the standard controllers.”

“For me, digital distribution was a really big deal – just the fact that we’re allowed to see games like Shadow Complex and Flower, games that would never be greenlit for $60 retail products. The idea of bypassing retail and speaking directly to the customer is pretty exciting,”
