Jonas would be better off moving to france and working on Deus Ex 3 IMO, at least then all of us could rest easy knowing the game was being developed by someone that knew more about Deus Ex's Design than Harvey Smith lol. (Frankly Harvey proved his lack of knowledge when he put Universal Ammo in Iwar)

I'm a bit iffy on how that'll turn out and we can only hope it does the franchise justice.

Note that only two of those are somewhere other than Western North America, and only one is on a different continent.

And every one is in a country where I speak the language fluidly. COINCIDENCE!?! Probably not, Sherlock.

And it's not my fault they don't have any decent studios in Britain.

As for Australia - OMFG HUGE FUCKING SPIDERS. Nothanks.

Oh. Then yes, true.

Still, I would accept jobs at lesser studios that those. I would not sell grandma for that, though.

I beg to differ.

I went there in 2005 for a week on work experience. I didn't do much, mostly messed around in Max, but it's a nice place.

Montreal is way the fuck over there, Smike, and looking at a map, it seems geographically as much a part of the East as New York.

Just smaller.

So, Valve, we do lunch. Bioware, I make some excuse to come by and see you in the midst of Canada. I have no idea how or why. Obsidian, you're in Smike's hands, while Texas is Texas.

Looks like we have a plan, gentlemen.

Montreal and Edmonton I presume are the two. Denmark would be the one on another continent. Unless there has been some major geographical shift in the last few weeks ;)

Edmonton is in Alberta, which is West. Texas is also considered The West, even though it's more East than Alberta. So Montreal and Denmark are the two that are not in Western North America, and Denmark is the one on a different continent.
