Hot game development studio

Not as in their title roadmap. As in HAWT.

Just saw this pic of Kojima up on Kotaku. Since when do game studios look like giant pop band ensembles? Where's my shiny silver suit!?

If game designers built restaurants...

There's a great thread going over on Raph's blog, continuing off something posted by Sheri Graner Ray , describing restaurants designed by different game designers. Raph's added a few, and then the comment thread's gone a little nuts with it:

If John Carmack created this restaurant, it would be just like his other restaurants, except much prettier.

If Will Wright created this restaurant, we’d have to continually monitor what each employee was doing, instructing them when to cook, when to clean and when to go to the bathroom, but eventually, it would burn down anyway.. and if it didn’t a natural disaster would occur to make sure it was destroyed.
