At the recent Game Developer's Conference, Eric Chahi gave a great talk that received rounds of applause about his whole creative process in developing Another World.

I don't know if this had been posted before, but since it is the promo of the day, I thought it would be worthwhile to post it now.


Actually, he's not the only person that gave a talk about his classic game. This was a series at GDC this year. The series is called "Classic Game Postmortem". Follow this link and you will find links to videos of developers discussing their creative process for such classics as Doom, Maniac Mansion, Pac Man, Prince of Persia, Pitfall, Elite, Marble Madness, Bejeweled, and Raid on Bungeling Bay.

Oops. Fixed my link. Try again.

It's great to see that some games get discussed more when the promo's are active, I made a couple of threads promoting other games that were on sales previously (Painkiller and BLOOD) and I think it would be nice if more members did this :)
