Will Wright speaking at OHE, 4/22/04
Rumor has it that Will Wright will be speaking Thursday in OHE 542 from 12:00 noon until around 1:30. Wright is Chief Designer and Co-Founder of Maxis, developers of the SimCity series and The Sims. For those of you who missed his speeches at the GDC, this is an excellent opportunity to meet one of the most interesting and unique game designers in the industry.

Wright explains the concept of a fitness landscape in terms of game genres.

It is so exciting to meet him again so soon!
OHE 542 is a very small classroom where I've been working this semester. I'm wondering is it enough for the whole USC game geeks? ;)

The session was videotaped; you can probably view and/or get a copy from the OEH.

It was great. He basically walked in and took random questions; and did it beautifully.
