Well it's been a busy year for me.  Shipping Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, briefly working on an unannounced 3DS title, and finally working on Michael Jackson: The Experience for Kinect.  More information on MJ later; the bottom line, it was (is) a super fun project to work on.  I'm hoping no one noticed but I've upgraded to the latest version of Joomla.  I've been working on some websites lately which has been surprisingly fun.  It's been a while since my last update so I have a stack of articles I'm planning on writing soon:

  • Update regarding Compile Time Hashing - I want to respond to some comments and make sure that I'm linking the latest and greatest version.
  • Information on the websites I've been working on - I have a newfound respect for Javascript programmers.
  • Information on this website - Complications that arose my upgrade and some improvements I've made to some Open Source stuff.
  • Michael Jackson! - Great project, tons of praise for Kinect.
  • Programming Test - I've been asked to do one and thought it would be fun to document the process and results.

I worked on the 2010 Pop for most of its development. I really got into working with Ubisoft's primary Engine and made a lot of improvements and fixes. Overall I was really happy with the game. If nothing else it had very solid gameplay. It didn't fare so well on Game Rankings (76) but most of the complaints seemed to be about the story and setting.

Not much to say really. I'm finally getting around to updating my work history. I'm still with Ubisoft and unfortunately the last couple years I'm having such a good time working I haven't had to energy to do much on the side. So haven't really updated the games I've worked on lately, since coming to Ubisoft I've had the pleasure to work on Lost: Via Domus, Shaun White Snowboarding: Road Trip(Wii), Prince of Persia, and I'm now currently working on Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands. The great thing is that I've had the chance to work on all current gen platforms.

I managed to sneak on the reboot of PoP right at the end of development. I mainly spent a couple months helping to debug the PC version for release. Not a huge lot of impressive work to do but it did help me secure a position on the PoP: Forgotten Sands team. Metacritic: 85.
