The other side of the story.

Space Siege currently sits at a 56% on GameRankings.

Would it have been ranked higher if all my dialogue hadn’t been rewritten and re-recorded after I was laid off with a bunch of other people?

Maybe, maybe not.  I don’t know.  I do know that everyone on the project (at least, while I was still there) gave it their best shot.  No one set out to make a game that would get a 56%.

But in the interest of full disclosure — and in the interest of clearing my name, which I opted to not remove from the game’s credits — here is the original script and recorded VO for Space Siege.

It is obviously still a work in progress, as I upload more web pages.  I’m also offering some “notes” along the way.  Kind of a director’s commentary, I guess.

Enjoy.

Update: I have removed the links to the originally recorded VO files, at the (informal) request of some old friends at GPG.  I’m not trying to cause any trouble, boys — don’t sic Patrick on me.
