What’s Working for Denis Dyack Like
6:00PM Brian Ashcraft | Right before you go to sleep, ever wonder what it’s like to work for Too Human creator Denis Dyack? Neither do we. But let’s say, hypothetically, that you did wonder that. Read what some Too Human employees say about Dyack: Carman Dix, Art director of Too Human: Underneath, Denis is still that boy that genuinely loves video games with a passion. Henry Sterchi, Director of design of Too Human: Denis is sincerely passionate about the quality of everything Silicon Knights does, and with that passion comes some of his outspokenness and desire to interact with the community. Steve Henifin, Audio director of Too Human: One of the things I like about Denis is that he is a tenacious person and he takes risks. I respect him for that, because I’m the same way. That’s nice and all… What do you really think? ‘Too Human’ Developers Share Impressions Of Denis Dyack [Multiplayer] [Pic] More »
Oh, So Too Human Didn’t Take Ten Years To Make
3:30PM Luke Plunkett | Too Human was first announced as a PS1 game back in 1999, but does that really mean it’s been ten years in development? Nope, no, no way, no dice says Silicon Knights boss Dennis Dyack, who says development on the title only begun in earnest once they’d finished with their Metal Gear Solid port for the GameCube. So not ten years in development, then, but four. Course, that gives them even less of an excuse for some of the game’s more outdated elements, but hey, if Dennis wanted that cleared up, he’s cleared it up!
